Hello friends..

I have a Dell latitude laptop. And after going through some problems I decided to reinstall window xp. So I did. I took long time to install. After installed, it gave me an error.
" Window could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt"
that is system32/config/system

Another thing I notice is that hard disk is making some noise, a repetitive scratching noise during installation of XP.
Should I say ciao to my Hard disk? or is it something else?

Thanks in advance..
