Well I Guess I am no PC Techie
I diagnosed my wife's computer as having a bad hard drive, so we bought a new one. I cloned the drive using Acronis Migrate Easy 7.0

I used the 15 day trial version and it rocks. It copied the entire drive to a new drive with no problems, os and everything!!
So I booted up her system after cloning the drive, only to have the same loud noise!!!!! grrrrrrrrrrr
I looked at the guts which is what I should have done in the first place instead of assuming and found the processor fan was moving very slow. Ofcourse that is why the system was shutting down. Heat build-up. So back to MPC to get a 18 dollar fan. All fixed she says geeeze so we did not need to buy that 65 dollar hard drive !!
:cry:
I said true but you now have 4 times the space :lol:
