Unlikely to be the mbr then. More likely the circuitry, controller on the motherboard or disk itself. All of which are hardware issues. if it were my machine I'd probably get myself a big fat usb drive for backup and do whatever odd freezer trick someone suggested and as soon as it is alive, backup the whole thing to usb disk. Then throw the disk away. Cheers, Al. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
