Hello all,
Due to a malfunction with my computer and it having to be sent in for repairs I will not be on as much as I'd like to; however, I will be on often as I can and mostly on xfire and/or skyp.
My motherboard and hard drive failed on my computer causing me to lose EVERYTHING on my hard drive such as school work. applications for college, etc..
The expected time for my computer to return is 2-6 weeks.
Xf: tmlkid1996 skyp: Message me for it |

No, not at all.
It just decided to stop working. The computer is just over a year old, and for that reason I am never again purchasing a Asian made computer company such as Toshiba ever again. |

| The hard drive was working enough to extract data from it but it cost around $100 and I couldn't afford that, so I just really had to say goodbye to my data. |

I did nothing to that computer.
It's apparently common on my type of computer. The EXACT same thing happened to one of my neighbors computer of the EXACT same make and model. I'm just lucky enough to have my computer still under warranty. |

Ouch.
@super,
It has happened to my computer before, but they were about 3 years old when it happened.
Anyways, the computer I'm on right now is at 120+ degrees f so I can't really complain. |

So yeah,
I need to acquire most of my information for colleges again somehow.
I need to re-do work that I had completed for next year first semester, I need to re-do resumes, cover letters, applications, and most importantly I'm losing a lot of photos that I really would have loved to kept. Such as pictures of me and my grandmother (whom which passed away) pictures of my family, pictures of me and friends, and a lot of games and stuff in which I've paid for. So really this is terrible. |

@Super,
I would have done it at home, but my desktop is nowhere close to being able to run Windows 7.
And I probably wouldn't have mailed it to anyone over the internet. |

| Tml, So the hard drive won't turn on? or it turns on but you can't access it? If it turns on try and Recover the Information with a Windows Boot disc (A disc that runs all basic Windows functions) If not then Save the hard drive and save up money for a data extraction. Eh I say Contact Toshiba. If you still have a warranty try and get new computer or compensation. |

@Tim
I already had it sent out for repair, I can access the hard drive but we're very low on funds currently and I don't have money to even buy a new hard drive. And if i took out the hard drive out of my laptop it voided warranty, so either I take out the hard drive and void warranty and not get it fixed or I leave it in and basically lose my data. It's stupid and I really can't stand losing everything that I need and not having my computer but I don't have a choice here.
I just have to face it and move on, there isn't much I can do. 'Tis life and this is how life sometimes rumbles. It's really devastating losing more than a year's worth of stuff, but oh well I guess. It's just the way she goes sometimes. When I get it back, every month alongside my routine clean out and virus scan I am going to do a backup on some kind of external drive or cloud storage. :(

Superburke, I could honestly care less for your arrogance and pathetic attitude.
Maybe you could show a bit of respect and consideration?
If you're going to be rude, you can get out. |
