After checking out the code on Google and tech sites it seems genuine.<\/p>\n<p>This has also coincided with the fact that my computer seems to now only run for 10-15 minutes before the whole thing freezes. All this coincided with starting to receive the SAFE message upon start up.<\/p>\n<p>Long story short, I am now trying to clone my hard drive using Maxtor Maxblast BUT WHEN I BEGIN TO START THE CLONING OPERATION IT ONLY GETS A FEW MINUTES IN BEFORE THE WHOLE THING FREEZES.<\/p>\n<p>Any thoughts on how I could get through the cloning operation? Alternative methods? Or how I could keep the laptop running long enough so that I can clone and then switch out the hard drive?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"iawp_total_views":10},"question-category":[47],"question_tags":[],"class_list":["post-12174","question","type-question","status-publish","hentry","question-category-hardware"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question\/12174","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/question"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12174"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12174"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"question-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question-category?post=12174"},{"taxonomy":"question_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question_tags?post=12174"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
