Solve : Samsung HD501LJ problem or Software Corruption issue??

Answer»

Hi, Im Currently Running a Computer SET up with Windows 7 the hard drive is a 500GB Samsung HD501LJ
Today i was useing my PC, just got my internet fixed and recently as i turned the PC on in the morning
i noticed every program that i was running kept comming up with a popup saying Corruption notice, for e.g.
the pop up would mention "google chrome" Chrome.exe has a corrupted on C:drive? but i was still able to
use the program, and did this to many other programsi was running, anyways later that arfternoon i turned the PC
off, turned it back on Before and as it loads the first Hardware SCREEN then computer pauses, and i dont get the
"starting windows" Picture ANYMORE, just freezes and HARDDRIVE makes a clicking NOISE every few seconds? im thinking
this could be a Hard drive error?

Can any one advise me on what to do? as i need this computer back in use

Thanks
