It sounds like you need to set your computer to boot to CD. What brand computer do you have? When it boots up do you see any boot menu or press XXX to enter bios options?

Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology, or S.M.A.R.T.

and base on your title if SMART fails on a hard drive it means 2 thing. one the hard drive is dying. or the hard drive does not support the SMART technology Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology, or S.M.A.R.T.
