Hi list,

 

My laptop has been acting up lately - intermittently refusing to boot, so I
replaced the hard drive and spent most of a day rebuilding it only to end up
in the same situation.  Kubuntu hung during install. Windows installed and
seemed to work for a while until BSOD and now won't boot either.
Diagnostics for the new and old HDD seem to work fine, so I'm thinking there
is something in the controller or motherboard that intermittently fails.
Is something like that worth fixing (ie <$100), or is the laptop now a
paperweight? Could there be another cause of intermittent disk corruption? 

 

Greg
