I have a computer that is no longer used(replaced by a newer model)
that i would like to put back into use as a second computer for
surfing the web and email only. The problem is that the drive has a
damaged sector (evident on defragging) from a storm and power outage.
The computer ran fine for weeks at a time then the damaged sector
would start causing problems and it would need to be "restored". We
finally retired it. I was wondering if partitioning the hard drive
and putting the programs needed for its intended limited use in the
partition without the bad sector would work. It's an older model
running Windows 98. If so, what's the best, most economical way to do
this? Thank you.
