Two suggestions, both for after you buy the new hard drive. Backup files on that drive. Stop being so clumsy about dropping the disk onto the floor - the third time is not a charm.

Drives are pretty cheap these days. If you dropped it and it started doing that right afterwards, than it's a physical problem. You don't repair HDs. They're not worth the cost. You're VERY lucky that you're able to access the files. Get them off the drive and back them up to DVDs or your internal HD, ASAP.

Or the middle of gravity of reported merchandise needs repeated vibrations to unbalance thoroughly and your "attempt" wasn't long sufficient. Or it gets located in diverse positions, with some having much less stability than others, every time. or you have a puppy that knocks it off. Or the different 10000 mundane reasons an merchandise would have for falling off yet another merchandise. Why in the international could you today bounce to "hauntings" particularly than hit upon a thoroughly rational answer? including- perhaps you purely choose a greater good place for this tchotchke than the precise of an merchandise which vibrates and heats up. EDIT- Your computer vibrates, you be responsive to. every time that's on. i haven't had an merchandise proceed to exist a working laptop or computer tower for any length of time- my CAT does not even prefer to place on it simply by fact the vibrations of the cooling fan tick him off. Like I reported- there's 1000 completely mundane reasons for an merchandise to fall off yet another merchandise. Why immediately attain for the least possibly of situations and ignore approximately each of those that are possibly? or merely circulate the statue. heavily.

You can send it to some place to repair it, but I don't know how successful that might be.
But first of all, just copy all the files on to your computer.
