Sorry to hear this. Maybe mine is dead also. If you find out anything else, post what you find.

I hope you are successful. I sort of put my effort on the back burner until I get some more help. Please post your results.

These numbers look familiar. I tried this on a 2 TB disk. I do not know what is going on during this scan and what the purpose is but when I tried it, nothing was found. I am pretty sure my HD is OK and just has some glitch. As you can see, I have posted many questions but received little help. I am ...

It took me about 14 hours to do the MFT search and then there was no indication as to what to do. This was a month ago. Please keep posting as to your progress. I still have no solution but still hopefull.

Cgrenier: I basically did what you have suggested.
I went to ADVANCED, I selected BOOT,I selected REBUILD BS
I got a message "search mft" and the search started.
I did this yesterday. It took 12 hours. At the end, there didn't seem to be any resolution?????

So now what??

I seem to be going in circles. I have tried the rebuild BS (I think), I did the option to rebuild the MFT (I think). and nothing seems to work. The rebuild MFT took about 12 hours on my 2TB disk and then ended with another error msg.
I am willing to donate to this project if I can get some help ...

I did as requested, and here is the log.
At the end of ANALYZE the screen showed the following but this is not in the log file.
