3400c boot-up problems

[Mark Fielding]

Dear All

My 3400/240 (144mb Ram, 3gb HD) has started to freeze
on start-up. The extensions start to load and the
machine reports an address error. Tried to prune
extensions to no  affect and finally reformatted hard
disk and re-installed OS (9.1). Problem solved
(multiple re-boots all successful). This am thought
I'd check that all was still well -- this time
extensions start to load and system freezes with a bus
error! Is it the hard disk do you think? Running
Norton Disk Doctor from an external HD gives a report
of major problems with the disk -- is it time for a
new one -- and if so, which are recommended?

Many thanks.

best

Mark Fielding
