computer boots up. The test ensures that the hard drive is in working order.How Does the DST Short Test Work?The short dst failed seatools DST Short Test is automatically run by a utility installed on the hard drive by the hardware manufacturer just after the Power On Self Test (POST) is run during the boot-up process. If http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/laptop/f/3518/t/18844679 the DST Short Test passes, the computer boots into the operating system. If the DST Short Test fails, an error message is displayed.DST Short Test PassedIf you see a message in a log file or on your screen that indicates the DST Short Test has been passed, this simply means that the DST testing tool has determined that your hard drive or drives are in good working https://www.techwalla.com/articles/what-is-the-laptop-dst-short-test order.DST Short Test FailedIf a DST Short Test fails on your computer, and you receive an error message or log entry that reflects the failure, this is likely caused by a failing hard drive. However, certain software will also cause the DST Short Test to fail. McAfee and other anti-virus programs may cause the DST Short Test Failure error to generate. Other corrupted applications may also throw the error. Re-install the anti-virus program, or return your computer to an earlier point in time with System Restore.DST Short Test AlternativesThough all hard drives includes some DST testing tool, Seagate has expanded the standard DST tool included in the firmware for Seagate hard drives. Seagate SeaTools tests SATA, USB, 1394, ATA (PATA/IDE) and SCSI hard drives.

I ran the Dell Diagnostics tools and it failed in the DST Short Test: Error Code 1000-0146. So the question is: Is the hard drive able to be recovered by doing a format and reinstall or do I need to get a completely new harddrive? Thanks in advance, Mike Reply With Quote 2010-01-21,20:25 #2 SparkyPatrick View Profile View Forum Posts 4 Star Lounger Join Date Apr 2001 Location Tunbridge Wells, United Kingdom Posts 405 Thanks 0 Thanked 0 Times in 0 Posts The HDD is more than likely dead, from that result. If the rest of the hardware seems up to the task and you can find a suitable replacement for the hard drive, you could try adding the original drive as a secondary drive to recover the data. We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public.

So I was able to recover the data. Wheew! But when running a windows check disk on it, all looked fine. So was just wondering what I could do with this HDD? Of course this model laptop is older and does not have a CD drive or can boot from a USB. So if I do need to get a new HDD the next question will be how to install XP on it.
