hey britec i have a question. im trying to restore my desktop back to factory settings but at 90% or so i get an error msg that says "the request could not be performed because of an i/o device error' it happens on the second recovery disk.. im trying to restore it because when i try to log onto windows 7, it gives me a black screen after the log in screen and just shows my mouse arrow or it just freezes at the login screen. it also says kernel missing/corrupt then it takes me to this mega trends screen which iv never seen before.

i tried doing that already but now i cant even get past the boot screen unless i have the repair disc in. i noticed the mega trends msg, i googled it and it said something about s.m.a.r.t. that my hard drive is about to go out or is already bad. you think thats it? i have a new hard drive that i went and bought. i know how to install it but do i just load the discs now with it or do i have to do something else to that new hard drive? thanks for your time by the way.
