hey guyz....i need some help....i issued a topic over this forum statin that i had some stupid problem of my pc being restarted again and again. i had it checked by a pro....he told me my hard disk's dying...n that i am running an operating software (winxp) full of viruses. I couldn't believe his words. I know the processes running on my system and i had formatted the drives again n again....i kept a tight check on my registry and i am fully assurred there were no form of viruses running on my pc.

I doubt its any prob related to these softwares. one more final hint...i copied my data back to 40Gb, disconnected that 40Gb and formatted the 80GB overall (not just the c
