I dropped my PC off at PCworld last night, and i found out this mornign that they did get to look at it last night. My pc is as dead as a very dead thing. So i'm going to be shopping for a new PC this weekend i feel. He couldn't tell me if my harddrive is ok - and i don't have anything i can test it against- although i guess if i do buy a new pc, i can try it as a slave drive, or the guy at pc world suggested an external caddy which is perhaps not a bad idea if my hd is fried.

I'd been umming and arring about a new pc for a while anyway - so i guess now i have to think about do i want a desktop or a laptop as i used it mainly for listening to music and watching films. My gaming is now console based, so being able to upgrade
