What was wrong with it?
She downloaded some bit-torrent stuff from a questionable source and managed to corrupt her hard drive so badly that I couldn't even access the recovery partition it had. After that it gets more complicated. The operating system I have is an older version and doesn't contain all the drivers needed to support the newer hardware on this computer. Since I'm too cheap to buy all the new stuff I had to figure out how to integrate the necessary files and create a new install CD. There were a few other issues also but that's the jist of it.
