Ah, you didn't mention Windows was on there and working fine. In which
case - could be the disk. I'd still check the memory - did it previously
work fine and it's suddenly started failing, or have you just installed
Fedora?
It could be the file system is trashed for whatever reason - I wouldn't
try and boot it again if thats the case. I'd use Knoppix and copy off
anything you might want before you try and fsck the filesystem again.
