You were not specific on the error you encountered. Try and delete the partition and click New to create another one. If it fails then replace the HDD and retry.

It is possible the HDD is bad and need to be replaced so put another HDD in the PC and try reinstalling Windows.

Alternatively, remove the HDD and use external hard drive reader to format it. Then put it back to the PC and try to reinstall the OS.

Please my HP laptop keyboard isn't working again. When I switch it on, at the point of imputing the password, a key will just press on it's own without touching the keyboard and won't stop. So I cant access the laptop cus I can't input my password.

Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by ThatWriterBoy(m): 10:38pm On Feb 06, 2025
Hello everyone! I have some issues with my PC. So I use an Ubuntu 16.04 because I use a 32-bit machine (I know it's old, but it's what I can afford and it has been serving me well since I got it except when some products that no longer support 32-bits), and recently, it's as if the right click button clicks itself.
Like, I'd be browsing or coding or doing anything and then the menu that would come up if I right-click would come up on its own. When I left-click to get it out, it would still come back over and over again until I restart the laptop. After I restart, it would behave well for some time, and then the issue will start again.
I have tried using a different socket, I have disabled the touchpad and gotten an external mouse, I have tried that testing command from my terminal to check for ghost touches, I have tried all I know to do and yet the issue persists. Please what could be wrong? How do I fix this? Is this an OS issue? Do I have to reinstall a new OS? If I have to, could you recommend one that would be best for a 32-bit laptop? Right now, I can use Python 3.8 and React 14 on my Ubuntu 16; if you can recommend one that would still let me run the same versions or even something higher, I'd be grateful.
Thank you for your time.
