Hi folks.
Im not a Linux guy but know my way around most PCs so a friend asked me to look at his daughters netbook after it stopped working.
It was showing a Boot Error after POST so I tried to install Ubuntu from a USB drive as Ive done loads of times before but got this - tried 12.10 and 12.04 LTS :
I then tried DBAN on it and got similar results :
Ive checked the BIOS and its not got any "lock" settings so not sure if its indeed a knackered drive or not.
Any advice?
Many thanks
