laptop mayhem
Dec. 17th, 2005 06:46 pmnow that's it's been confirmed that I can in no way afford (even with parental aid) to get my old lappy fixed, i shall be doing several things:
For those of you who want to know, apparently my laptop's motherboard and powerboard need replacing (i could have told them about the powerboard). The cost of this (it's out of warranty) would have been £530-ish :eek: :!: (330 for new mobo, 37 for new powerboard, 94 for labour + vat on parts)
I'll be getting this one as a replacement hopefully. :D
- looking to get my stuff off the lappy hard drive
- getting a new laptop (with parental help) :)
- poking old lappy to see if we can get it working ourselves (i don't trust the engineer's report)
- borrowing computers till after Christmas :(
