About 6 months ago my Toshiba Satellite stopped working. When I would try to start it up I would get and error saying that the file wmilib.sys was missing or corrupt. I've tried so many things to fix this. I was wondering if I could completely wipe the hard drive and do a fresh install of windows 8 or 7? I went out and bought a windows 8 installation disc but when I tried to install it, it just kept showing the windows 8 logo and it never went away (left comp on all night).
Nothing in the windows repair works (shocker). So far no hard drive wipe program has worked for this laptop. Tried DBAN and it said it could complete do to bad sectors and HDDErase didn't work either. But would wiping the Hard drive and installing windows even fix it? If anyone can help me out I would greatly appreciate it. Whether you can help me out on fixing the problem or finding a hard drive wiping program that doesn't require me to actually go into windows, that would be great.
