[QUOTE="OnOff, post: 423324, member: 16173"] My old man's laptop. In his 80's and his only real interest now. I'm often having to look at it as he'll have been on this or that dubious site and probably clicks on the first "Debbie lives 3 miles from you, wanna ****? :lol: I frequently have to block various Nigerian princesses trying to contact him on Skype too! Tonight he contacts me to say that a window is coming up suggesting hard disc failure. My immediate thought was it's a virus but I've run HD Tune and thing maybe there is an imminent hardware failure coming up. Any ideas? The window that appears when you start the pc overlaid on the HD Tune screen: [ATTACH]7049._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
