"A Disk error has occured"

[Extreme Angle]

i started up my comp the other day worked fine, tryed to boot yesterday and i got a "A disk error has occured. Press ctr alt del to restart".

done abit of searchin and i keep getting different opinions on what to do.

i booted my xp disk and tryed to delete the current partition and it gives me the message "unable to delete partition".

There is something wrong with the hard drive.


any ideas on what to do
