The old laptop works again.2020-12-13T18:37:00Z2020-12-13T18:37:00Zrelievedpublic0My father was my life-saver. <br /><br />He managed to get my old laptop working again *glomps him*<br />It took hours tinkering with the old laptop and his own computer <br />but he did find a way to install the operating system.<br /><br />I'm very relieved.<br />I feared to have done something only professionals good make right again.<br /><br />... I won't ever be trying such actions with my new laptop.<br />(I need supervision at least ^^; )<br /> <br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=lhune&ditemid=44545" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> commentstag:dreamwidth.org,2009-05-12:331499:35649I need more tea...2015-09-04T19:54:53Z2015-09-04T19:54:53Zstressedpublic0This is maddening, my internet connection is gone after about an hour after I start my computer. I have to start and restart and restart and so on... Really, I'm drinking loads of tea to keep calm. <br /><br />I guess I'll have to turn in my computer for a check-up after all. *hates to part with her not-so-trust-worthy laptop* <br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=lhune&ditemid=35649" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> commentstag:dreamwidth.org,2009-05-12:331499:27771OMG OMG OMG I have my laptop back!!!!!!2012-08-04T09:01:58Z2012-08-04T09:01:58Zecstaticpublic130 Euros, only 30 euros (36,55 $) and I have my laptop back WITH A NEW SCREEN!! WHICH COSTS AT LEAST 400 euros, never mind what I would've had to pay for the hours of work they did on it! <br /><br />A couple of days ago my laptop gave up on me again, I couldn't access the internet. I tried all the tricks, switched the firewall off and reinstalled Mac OS X but no avail, it needed to go to the Service Center of Apple (Switch). My father drove me to it and I handed my laptop over, paying 30 euros for a check-up. I underlined the fact that they didn't need to change the screen because I knew how much that would cost me. Besides I had been told the problem with my screen would not harm the motherboard in my laptop. I thought the change of my AirPort Card would cost me quite a lot already.<br /><br />Yesterday my father got an e-mail to say my laptop was ready and we could go fetch it. I had given my father's email since I had no idea when I could check my own email, so this was quicker. When we arrived at the service center and I asked for my laptop they said "Ah yes, with the new screen..."<br />Both my father and I were somewhat horrified because yes, we'd particularly asked not to change it, you should have seen our faces -_-;<br />We couldn't believe our ears when he said it fell under guarantee (which, to my information, had ended several months ago) He continued explaining it was necessary to solve the connection problem, he truly was very helpful but all I could think about was how I wanted to leave before he changed his mind on the cost price.<br />He didn't alter the price, I had everything for the initial 30 euros I had paid!<br /><br />So here I am at home, with my laptop with brand new screen (!!!!!!!!), I still have a hard time to believe that.<br />I will take better care of it now, I swear I will.<br /><br type="_moz" /><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=lhune&ditemid=27771" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> commentstag:dreamwidth.org,2009-05-12:331499:27211TWO DAYS!
