Feedback... and munged disks

Two questions...

1. Each time I boot my notebook computer into Mandrake Linux 7.0, I get a 
horrendous screech because the Microphone input and the Speaker outputs 
are both turned on to maximum.  How can I prevent this?

2. Under Linux, what program do I run to check the hard disk for bad 
sectors?  (i.e., what's the equivalent of SCANDISK or Norton Utilities)
