I have decided to turn the computer off after running disk check for close 24
hours, and let her warranty Mob deal with the hard drive issue :(
dud number 2 :(

Xubuntu 11.04 works, I think
the CD is reporting itself as xubuntu 10.04 (strange)
That's odd, I recently installed Xubuntu and it seemed
to
be reporting as
11.04. In what area did it say it was 10.04?
near the Ubuntu CD Image Automatic Signing Key, i'll have
to check when check disk finishes if ever
Glad it seems to be working for you however.
gparted has reported the hard drive has bad
sectors in
NTFS filesystem :(
Noo! You Microsoft bastards me
strangle the
air, where is my Windows
XP CD..
Actually, bad sectors may be indicating a problem with
the
hard drive. It would
really pay to look at the Smart status of the drive
and
keep close tabs on it.
Also do regular backups of any important data.
I hope is not another dud computer for her (first dud was
RAM corruption issue) :(
do these centrelink/job networks give out dud computers?
