  1. File Explorer Crashing


    My file explorer keeps crashing and I can't do anything on my PC. Nothing is working, I've tried everything under the sun, but to no avail. I've tried /scannow and it always gets an error completing at 9%. Everytime I boot up my computer I get an unknown hard error. I've tried completely wiping my disk but it always gives me an error and won't complete. I can't imagine there is anything else I can do other than buy a new Hard Drive and OS. Please help ASAP.
