Catch-22.




For some months my computer has been behaving in an increasingly erratic way. It’s now begun to crash with alarming frequency. 
   Yesterday I verified the hard drive and discovered it needed repairing. In order to do this I need to re-boot using the OS installation disk. Unfortunately, neither the computer’s internal or external DVD drives will recognise the  installation disk owing, I imagine, to the hard drive’s need for repair. 
   The forums suggest that problems with the internal DVD reader, manufactured appropriately enough by MatSHITa, are all too common. No one has found a solution. So basically I’m stuffed. At any moment the problem may become so bad as to make the computer unusable, so preventing me from updating this site. In such an eventuality, go to my  Google blog which I’m able to update vis an iPhone app.
