Thanks for the reply
Both partitions have been upgraded from previous distro and I installed 
the nvidia driver using the
Ubuntu restricted drivers install But the xorg.conf and the 
/usr/bin/compiz are the same as are
the compiz files from Synaptic and at one time both systems were ok but 
now hda1 is still ok but hda3 gives me the error message
