Now my hard drives almost died. I was using my PC happily until i tried to install media player 10. Then my hard drive started making weird noises and it stopped responding. So i restarted but windows wouldn't boot up. Then restarted again and it said such a file was missing so it can't start Windows. Got into the XP setuip and it said my hard drive was damaged or it needed reformatting. I tried to reformat but half an hour later it was still on 0%. Went into the recovery console and its formatting now, but not sure if its actually going. :mad:
