    Hi

    Ive had my FZ21s since november all was fine but the last few weeks or so its keep stalling at the desktop when it just comes off the login screen after booting. its stalls deleating some files. I have noticed that the hardrive sometimes makes a clicking noise like a spoon hitting a bake bean can type of noise. this a buggerd HDD? or software? its never been a fast laptop I think my 3.2ghz P4 runs faster on xp than this. it always seem to have long delays.

    I was thinking of sticking in a 7200rpm hitachi in the thing good idea? or shall i call sony?
