Download the portable version of GSmartControl and save it on your Desktop. See this Sysnative thread by Softwaremaniac - Win 10 Freezing and DISM and SFC won't completeįull instructions by softwaremaniacFollow the instructions below to check your SMART status with GSmartControl: Get access to BIOS settings & Boot Menu: F-keys/Hotkeys by System Manufacturer (OEM)ĭownload GSmartControl from On most systems, you press and/or tap an F-key repeatedly during boot-up to bring up the BIOS menu. Here is a listing of the BIOS key sequence by system manufacturer, which will cause your system to boot, then bring you to the BIOS screen. It is very important to have the correct model number to ensure that you are provided with the correct instructions. The model number can usually be obtained from the sticker found on the case of a desktop PC or from the label on the bottom of a laptop. If you require assistance to change your BIOS settings to ensure that the USB ports are first in line during boot-up, simply post your system manufacturer's name and the EXACT model number of the system. To successfully boot from the USB stick, you MAY require a BIOS "Firing Order" change to ensure that the system looks to the USB ports first for bootable media - before looking/ defaulting to the hard drive or CD/DVD drive to boot your system. All Seagate DiscWizard functions are launched using clear and easy-to-follow wizards, though, so on balance you're probably safer here than with much of the competition.I checked at the SeaTools site and found that they offer a tool/app, filename = USBbootSetup-SeaToolsBootable.zip that you can download run the EXE inside the zip file ( SeaToolsBootable_RC_2.1.2.usbBootMaker.exe) and create a bootable USB stick for SeaTools with DOS on it.Īs with the CD/DVD, you will obviously be booting from the media device that you just created - the USB stick. 
A single error - restore a backup to the wrong drive, say - could result in massive data loss. And you can then clone your existing hard drive by copying its partitions to the new disc, so you're able to boot from that instead.Īs with any hard drive management tool, you need to be extremely careful about how you use DiscWizard. Or maybe you've bought a faster, larger hard drive? Seagate DiscWizard includes an option to add a new drive to your system.
If your hard drive becomes corrupted and Windows will no longer start, then boot from this instead, restore your last backup, and everything should be back to normal. You're able to build a bootable recovery disc, too. This image can then be mounted as a temporary drive in Explorer, letting you browse it and restore just the selected files or folders that you need. The program can create a complete image backup of your hard drive, for instance.
Seagate DiscWizard offers a suite of tools to help you manage Seagate or Maxtor hard drives.
