  My computer is truly on it's last legs... I can't even turn it on without it freezing every 5 minutes. And that horrible scratching sound that comes from the hard drive is driving me crazy. Luckily I'm able to use my mum's computer to do things like post this message and check my email. I'm going to see if I can pull together £40 to buy myself a new hard drive from PC world later, then start the whole process of formatting the drive, and reinstalling everything... again!! Wish me luck.
