I started getting a warning message about my hard drive going bad from windows. I purchased a new hard drive to store a system image on it. When I installed it, bios kept trying to boot from the new drive instead of the existing. I went in to bios and changed the setting to boot from the existing. I formatted the drive using disk management; at this point everything seemed to be going okay. Though when i try to create a system image with the windows backup tool, the window for searching for devices come ups and scans but never does anything else. When i try to close down the tool the computer freezes. On one occasion when it froze it scrambled the screen. This is my first time doing anything of this nature. I am a student and really don't have the means to take my computer to get serviced. Any help would be appreciated, if you need more info I will provide it. Thanks
