debetesseOk, so Ianto stopped booting.
I got him to boot from the install disc.
He can't see his hard drive.
Clearly the issue is (at least, and pleasepleaseplease only) the hard drive.
So, I need to get, and install, an new hard drive.
And then see what, if anything, I can recover from the current one if I put it in a new housing, or send it out to professional-type people.
Which (inshallah) will cost me muchmuch less than a new computer, and my tax refund should cover most of it.
