omg, I can't manage without my laptop!. The last time I had an issue a few years ago I had to go back to using a really old laptop to get online, and it was such a pain as I use my laptop for my business, and rely on it so much. I now have everything backed up to an online cloud, so I can access data on other pcs (I could use my daughters in an emergency). Glad you got the laptop working, and managed to pick your friends son up, there are so many inconsiderate drivers out there. I bet the air was blue when you saw the car boxing you in

It's been killing me, my daughters laptop is pants, So I got mine back out and re-flowed the graphics card took a little while, I cleaned out the fan and just turned it on. Now its running like before so I am happy.
sounds very technical with the graphics card (way beyond me!), good that you have managed to get it going again, they are so expensive to buy.
Years ago I did a BTECH course, So computers are pretty easy to fix when you know how. my problem these days are that I don't have the tools any more.
I had a shop in sheffield fixing broken electronics and did well, when I decided to sell up and move on to been a chef I sold everything.
My mate has a shop that I have to pop down to get things from such as the heat gun, thermal paste and what not.
One day I might by a better laptop but while I can keep this going I might as well keep it.
yes tools are key, and good to have those skills. I am hoping to get a new laptop later this year, and I will keep the current one for spare, as I need one really. I use mine all day, so it gets a lot of use.
Always good to have a spare, I was lucky that my kids laptop was working (well kind of)
I don't like not been able to surf the net, it feels like my legs have been cut off. haha
yep same here, I live most of my life online, as I am working online. When the internet goes off I go a bit mad (I am mad enough already!)
