Yeah I would just clone, replace, and be done with it.... it isn't worth messing with bad sectors, and the HD is probably going to fail at some point anyways
@SirCharlo And yeah, having access to the original is nice. I don't throw out hard drives. Ever. I just smash them with sledgehammers after about a year.
ok, i can't see anything else that could be useful.
This is an example.
My first reaction was to vote for closure as Not a real question, yet the title says what's wrong, and the OP gave his error message.

I've installed fresh Windows 7 Ultimate (32bit) on my laptop. I've installed all the application/WindowsUpdates which I wanted to and my system is ready to use. All my other data is now on D: drive.

Vulcan was a small planet proposed to exist in an orbit between Mercury and the Sun. In an attempt to explain peculiarities of Mercury's orbit, in the 19th-century French mathematician Urbain Jean Joseph Le Verrier hypothesized that they were the result of another planet, which he named Vulcan.
