Yes, you are right - I would just like to know beforehand if a new HD
(e.g.) could solve the problem...

Well, it sounds easier than it is: The manufacturer's service
organization is extremely poor (rumors say that they even lose
equipment...) and "independent" service companies refuse to repair it...
So I have three options:

- to find out if it is the HD or something else and then replace it
- to replace the HD and pray
- to throw away the notebook


Thanks for all suggestions!

Well, if you *know* there is something wrong with the notebook, then you
should take it in to be repaired.  The HW specific diagnostics that the
maker of the notebook has will far exceed what general diagnostics are
available in any OS.  Besides, what can you "repair" yourself on a
notebook?  You can replace memory, maybe.  And you can replace the HD,
maybe.  But, what else?
