yep the bios talks to me...

turned on the pc... told it to move a folder... and saw my frist Blue Screen of Death on winXP... no prob let him restart i tought...
The bios then chekued the hard disk and said: "harddisk 549494: failiure inminent, backup all your data"...

what he means is: "your hardisk is REALLY screwed:did you made a backup? if not youre screwed too..."

Not only it screws all your HD information, you have to cope with a funny bios... doh

anyone knows what software they use to retrieve information from really screwd HDs?
