Why was this locked?

[Jhill]

I had a hard drive problem because I got errors every time I booted up my pc and I was wondering how I would fix it? I piosted it in the general harware forum and my post was locked???

WHY?

Maybe because a mod was trying to clean the forum up (a lost cause in my opinion, and therefore I don't go there anymore, but that's besides the point). HD problems are not meant to be posted in GH. Go find the correct forum.

FWIW it looked like a software issue to me.

It looks like a software problem rather than a hardware problem.

I think the mods might also be wanting to push tech support posts out of GH and back in to TS.
