thanks i'll try using the windows cd. even while i wap trying to back up my data on the linux my linux hard disk failed cuts its back its barely 8months old

The problem could be anything of course but I suspect it's a flakey power supply. Is the PSU a name-brand unit or generic?
IS the HDD 8 months old or the whole PC?

the pc is 2years old but the hard disk is 8months i guess it should be power failure. thanks
