MJC Photo :
When I try to upload them to any site. Facebook or ordering prints I get nothing. I don't even get the menu to pick photos to upload. I have them backed up on a drive so if I have to re install Windows 7 I wont loose my customers photos. I also tried to back up a few photos just to see if I could and I could not.
I set up the check disk to run last night and it did. It sat at stage 5 at 25% and did not get past 25%. The system tool are not working, can run defrag or back up either. I did a virus scan and it came up with nothing. I am at a loss here to what is going on.
Failing Hard Drive. If you can't run the most basic command in 'dos mode' (check disk) then your system has a Hard Drive Failure, and the data on the drive may be 'lost' as it is all / will be corrupt when trying to read from it (thus can't "do" anything with it).
You would need to replace your Hard Drive, and reinstall EVERYTHING from Day 1. If your not familiar with any of this, or don't wish to be down a few days doing this everyday till you were back to some 'normal' standard, this may be your business requirement to buy a new system instead and sell this one off as a business loss (there is a tax term to help recoup loss).
Any photos you current have will be lost, as the source (this bad drive) is FAILED. Any programs you currently have, you will have to redownload / reinstall from disk, I hope you have the licenses somewhere handy? All personal information (shortcuts, favorites, documents, etc.) will also be lost. All email, unless it resides on your email host (Myaccount@yahoo.com) will also be lost.
Good Luck
