My WD HD fritzed out on me this week and I got the message (S.M.A.R.T. status bad back up and replace). I installed a new HD today and tried to load XP Pro but I'm keep getting this message "ntkrnlmp.exe could not be loaded. Error code is 7" I'm getting ready to throw this thing out of the window. Any suggestion on how to proceed?
help!
