I'm not as clued up on windows as I could be but chkdsk might be what you're looking for. I use spinrite on a regular basis but its not free.

I'm not at a pc now but right click non the hard drive go to the hardware tab chkdsk should be there. Just remember to enable both tick boxes.

Most HD manufacturers have diagnostics utilities that indicate HD health and can be downloaded from their websites.
