Hi Karen!
It is really bad that your laptop has not yet been fixed appropriately or the way you would have liked it. I know it can cause lot of tension. We, now a days, depend a lot on our PC and without it, we become handicapped. Had I been in your situation, I would have also felt tense and would have cursed the man, who would have rectified my PC/laptop.

This is so offputing!! I was wondering about your absence. Now i know but then the fact that it still needs more attention is bit dis heartening. that means less of you and i just cannot bear that. I can understand what you are going through for there must be important stuffs that you need to settle on internet. Get a new key board if that helps and come back soon. I miss you Karen.
Lots of love

I just had this experience with my laptop. The place that I took it to be repaired kept calling me and telling me that the problem was that the computer had no memory. I told them that was impossible as I had been using it every single day. I finally picked it up and took it to an independent repair center and it was fixed in one day. I didn't realize how much I depended on it until I didn't have it. I went to the library every day so that I could get my email but I was only able to use the computer for an hour each day,

Ugh! Summer before last I had a problem where my laptop suddenly went black. Just out of the blue it started doing this when I had it sitting on the bed. I suspected it was overheating though I knew computers could have a blue or black screen when they had serious memory issues. I knew I had plenty of free drive space so no biggie right?
Well it kept doing it and then one day the computer wouldn't boot up. After several restarts Windows still wouldn't load so I took it to Comp USA. They charged a fortune but they backed everything up to another (external) hard drive for me (which I purchased).
Got the computer home and everything seemed fine except for one thing. After a week or two the computer would go black again. It doesn't like to be above a certain temperature and even in an air conditioned room it will sometimes shut down, which is why I still think memory does play some part.
I was keeping the computer in front of this tower fan only I would be freezing! Especially during the winter, lol! A dew months ago I bought a little 5 inch fan that I position behind the computer that usually does the trick. I elevate it slightly in back to help the air circulate.
The things you have to go through...

It seems that certain functions that require more memory make it work harder and I guess it heats up faster. It drives me nuts. I need the cold version of a hot plate.

I have had this happen to me a couple of times. Our computer messed up so we sent it back to Compaq to have it fixed. They sent it back a couple of weeks later and it was still messed up so we had to send it back. My husband finally got it straightened out but it was stressful because I work online also. No computer means no extra money on my part.
Compaq even sent it back once with a few parts in the wrong place. Now when something goes wrong, my husband does what he can to fix it instead of sending it back. Luckily, when we did send it back, it was still under warranty so we didn't have to pay anything.
So sorry you are going through this. I hope you get it fixed soon!

Hello my friend PeacefulWmn9 Ji,
Well, I am not that much fond of PC, but my hubby is, he will work all the time possible and get irritated if PC is not working due to many factors. Above all, if it has been brought up after fixing, he will loose his shirt and make mockery of PC. He will call taht people who fixed at once and get it on right.
May God bless You and have a great time.

This happend to me a year back when my hard disk crashed.
I gave my PC to a local repair person. he promised to make it allright but after wasting 5 days he returned it back saying that he cannot make it right.
Such things make me go crazy when somebody tells us that they will fix it and they return it unfixed.

Oh! That is very sad. As a technician, I have never give my computer to shop. But one of my classmate tried to give her computer to a shop and fix the problems, they said it needed to be formatted, so she gave the money for formatting the laptop. Afterwards, they said it can't be formatted because of some problems unusually, unless she paid a little bit more for an original XP disc or buy a new harddisk. Finally I helped her solving all of the problems in a day with no cost.
If you are working with your computer, I think you better buy a alternative one. Hope you will get your computer soon and with all problem fixed.
Best luck myLotter=]
