    Hard Disk Drive Failiure is Imminent

    Hard drives are pretty cheap now days. If you dont have warranty and the manufacturer wont replace it then you can pick up a fairly big Hard Drive for fairly cheap off newegg or some other online store. EDIT: this is assuming that you take the error for its word and that the hard drive will fail.

    Why can't my cd player play MP3 cd?

    CDs are not obsolete yet. They will be soon enough but I dont think you can call them that quite yet. My car is a 2004 model and it doesnt play MP3 CDs. My Brother has a car from the same Make, a 2006 model, and it plays MP3 CDs so you have to check if your cars CD Player can play MP3 format.
