Hard Drive going to crash soon?

[Perishingflames]

I am using Boot Camp and after I logged into my account on Windows today and opened Messanger, it suddenly came to a black screen with some scrolling green text for a second, then restarted me back into Mac.

I asked my friend about it and he seems to think my hard drive may crash in the next few days; that problem was a 'symptom'.

Your views? I've had this computer for not even 2 years. Also, if you think I have a hard drive failure coming in the near-future, how can I back up all my windows files and the partiton? I have all the mac stuff backed up on an external HD but nothing of the windows.

Thanks.

I booted back into Windows after the failure, and it had to verify and restore the HD and all that... I took a video of it happening. When I logged back in, the error report when I sent it told me they didn't know exactly the cause, but it was probably a RAM error - http://wer.microsoft.com/responses/....2.0?SGD=b321e481-dabd-40eb-812f-83b37ce1b923

Am I off the hook or is this prone to happen again?

What kind of computer do you have? Most hard drive make noises before they die, or Disk Utility finds an error it cannot fix. It'd be easier to figure out what's wrong with the specs of your computer, version of Bootcamp, etc. The BIOs is emulated by Bootcamp, I believe.
