Good morning all,  
This morning when I started my laptop, it went into a cycle of reboots.
   Booted it in safe mode and got a bunch of notices like
   Multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\windows\system32\BootVID.....others plus
   a bunch of drivers.  When I manually turn it off, there's a little clink,
   mechanical sound.  I think the hard drive is hosed, any
   suggestions/confirmations/ sales on laptops.  Does it pay to buy a new hard
   drive?  Never had one fail until today.
Ed
