Sounds more like a new hard disk to me, Marc. Bit copying everything from
old to new should not be difficult for a competent PC shop. And HDs are not
expensive.

Subject: [OM] HP PC troubles - hard disk errors
Ewww. I've just been setting up Google's Picasa 2 as a stop-gap solution to
managing my images, when all of a sudden it started locking up when I opened
some specific images. Since I've not long started using it, my initial
thought was "ARRRH! Picasa!" but, well, a check of the relevant images
showed that the problem wasn't Picasa - nothing would open them.
What's more, any attempt to move or copy them (or even delete them) got a
"Cyclic Redundancy Check" data error. Eeek!

If this begins to look ugly, it might be time for a new PC (or iMac if Peter
gets his way), so I may have more questions later. So, thanks in advance for
any advice.
Cheers,
Marc
