I let the test go as far as 91% because the fan in the CPU was screaming , and that is the stock AMD heats ink and fan that came with the processor and has copper piping in it. So is windows memory diagnostics tool a good one to use and is it reliable ?

yes windows memory diagnostics are pretty good
when you enter windows memory diagnostics
type F1
select standard test
hit tab key
set pass count to 10
hit f10
remember to test one memory at a time

I have run a memory test in both memeory modules using the windows diagnostic tool. An there were no problems reported . Is that a conclusive test ?
Thanks

yes that would be a conclusive test which mean your hard drive is failing did you set it to

Yes I did set it to those , it is a relief to know that it is the hard disk , as the seed of doubt was planted as to whether it was the hard disk or not . I have a theory that it made have done something to the circuit board which is exposed on the hard drive or effected the controller chip on the hard drive , and that it may be giving a false reading as to whether they are bad sectors on the drive

you said before that you power off the computer when some program in hiren boot cd was working on
the hard drive
that could have possibly damage the hard drive
