when your hard disk exceeds its life cycle, or gets turned off while writing a partition table or modifying a partition table. you can fix this by running fixmbr and checkdsk- but the best fix is just to format it. if it's physically crashed, then you're screwed. take it apart, look on YouTube and find a way to turn it into a clock
