Imminent death.

Se7en:
Let me clarify: it probably ISNT a virus. S.M.A.R.T is a hard drive diagnostics standard that most drives support, but is never turned on, and is of limited use. If its giving a warning on boot up, its probably failing one or more of its start up tests, which are pretty basic.

Your going to have to find out the brand of hard drive you are using. Check in hardware manager, and see what the name of the disk is. Then google for the relevant test program for that brand of disk. Run it, and see what it says.

If you want to get rid of the messages, just go into the CMOS setup at boot (by pressing delete) and turn off SMART, probably in the advanced features menu.
