my laptop is in a coma.

It is still under warranty, but I am yet to hear back from support centre.

Dead-Air · 02.03.2010, 10:48 PM

hmm. mouth to mouth might not work. mouth to usb is probably dangerous too.

jon boy · 02.04.2010, 12:00 AM

you seem to have the power of the internet in your mind so all is good.

artsygrrl · 02.04.2010, 05:53 AM

Those in a coma can hear what you say. Be kind, phoenix. Whisper encouraging words to it. Outside the door curse the fucking bastard out.

Crumb's Crunchy Delights · 02.04.2010, 06:27 AM

I lost my spiffy laptop a couple months ago. Powers on but nothin' Won't even go into bios. Alas, well out of waranty

I have an older, much less spiffy one but it seems to have lost tcp/ip. One of these days, I'll try to reinstall windows--never done that on a laptop.

floatingslowly · 02.04.2010, 09:36 AM

you missed my title-apalooza.

EVOLghost · 02.04.2010, 01:30 PM

shouldnt need to re install windows to fix that/..?

erugh.. I would cry.. if it was past the warranty. I still have about 11 months left..

but yes, the poor thing is kind of in doomsville. It will start kind of fine in safe mode, but trying to load in regular means non responsive, then black screen of forever nothingness, except for arrow, that can do nothing.. paperweight atm.

phoenix · 02.05.2010, 12:36 AM

haha, yeh I asked him to log in for me and move all my mail so I didn't lose anything, since I didn't know when I'd be on next. haha hilarious.

Can't be too different from the infant version. Certainly you want to use the AED with extreme caution...

floatingslowly · 02.06.2010, 01:30 PM

the "Geek" Squad is a bunch of no-nothing morons who charge the puter-ignorants for a false sense of authority.

don't even get me started on the "Genius" Bar.

EVOLghost · 02.06.2010, 01:59 PM

^ lol yeah

don't they just have a CD to fuckin' figure out and do everything for them?

You'd think. I spent about 2 hours futzing. TCP/IP was working but I couldn't figure out what the problem was. And using the restore discs was fairly quick and painless.

phoenix · 02.08.2010, 11:02 PM

it is hospital, it might be back in a month, or so.
