I'm on a wireless home Internet connection with three computers...two
which run windows XP and one which runs vista. The two which run XP
have both suffered from hard drive failure.
I'm trying to figure
out whether this is a mere coincidence, or there is an underlying connection. The
only thing they have in common is that they're connected (wirelessly)
to the same router (Netcore NW616). They don't share any files, aren't
in the same workgroup, and have basically no interaction. There haven't
been any fishy downloads or installations on either computer. The computer with vista seems completely unaffected (so far) by this problem.The first computer started to suffer after a few weeks of being on the network, and the next one failed a few hours after its first connection to the internet.
I'd love to get to the bottom of this, and hope you can help me!
