I used to have my hard drive in raid until when i started to download things and install them i always got a corrupt error when trying to install it. I realized mabey one of my drives was failing so i reformat and install windows on just one of the hard drives. Everything worked fine for a few days, and now when i download things and install them im getting the same error. I decided to run spinrite for disk errors and i have a Read/Write error. Is there any program out there that can try and fix the errors?

thanks
 
chkdsk (built into windows) can find and mark the sectors bad, however continuing to use a failing drive is not recommended. Backup your data and replace the drive.
 
Ya I did the chkdisk that was in xp and I let it scan and fix took mabey an hour and a half but when it finished it didn't say anything. But I have a few programs that will sometimes pop up with an eror mesage saying and error to read and write.
