OS: Win 98<br />
HD: Quantum Fireball CX 13 GB,<br />
partioned in 5 drives.<br />

My hd is only 6 months old,<br />
and now I suddenly have som &nbsp;bad sectors<br />
on C: drive (12 288 bytes).<br />
I have ran Scandisk, thorough,<br />
several times with settings:<br />
Free, for lost file fragments<br />
and hoped that it would fix or<br />
delete the bad data, but it did not work.<br />
I have just updated my Norton AV 2000<br />
virus data too, and it didn´t find anything.<br />
How can I fix this without reformatting<br />
the whole drive?<br />
