Answer»

I am having a PROBLEM with a Pentium 3 300MHz, Win98, Computer.  when it FIRST boots up it SAYS, "See Master Hard Disk: S.M.A.R.T.  Command Failed     Press F1 to Resume".  Then it goes into DOS ScanDisk and freezes up.
Is this probably a shot hard drive?  Oh, the last time it was working, it just shut off. Quote

...Is this probably a shot hard drive? ....

It's dead!   BTW, S.M.A.R.T.
thank you.go into the BIOS setup < keys del/ f1/2 on boot> and disable it.......now save the data to disk before  the hardrive  fails.......Yep, disable that drive's S.M.A.R.T. then immediately slave it to another computer's hard drive and save the data. That's really all you can do. Cheers!
