Event ID 7 - Bad Block

[BillyL]

My NT 4.0,sp6a server had an Event ID #7.&nbsp;&nbsp;Message: &quot;The device. \Device\Harddisk1\Partition2, has a bad block.&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp;Am I on my way to a HD crash?&nbsp;&nbsp;Will running DiskKeeper fix this?<br>Any suggestions as to what actions I should take would be greatly appreciated.

I would backup and replace the drive ASAP. Luckily you have been warned before the impending crash. <p>Al<br><a href=mailto: atc-computing@home.com> atc-computing@home.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>

I got the same error except it was complaining &quot;The device. \Device\Harddisk3\Partition1, has a bad block.&quot; Is it mean the 4th disk is having problem in the machine?

I have this same problem. My boss insists I should be able to partition around this, but I don't know how to figure where the bad block is and how to block the block. Any ideas?

Thank you,
