I am so upset!!
Last thurs nite, I started havin probs with my laptop -got it over a yr ago. So I brought laptop to work to have a friend who works with computers to see what was wrong + try to fix.. I was HOPIN he'd be able to save all my pics, videos, documents but he was able to save ONLY half so I've lost lots of pics (especially the most recent ones)..
I was ok with that- better to have SOME pics than NOTHING....
Anyway my friend decided to run diagnotics + see if its repairable. He said normally it'd take 1 day to run diagnostics. I left the laptop with him fri. This morning (Tues), he showed me the diagnostics and ONLY ELEVEN % of it was done!! he said that shows how bad the hard drive is and at this time it looks like ill have to buy a new laptop!!
I can't really afford tobuy a new laptop! Darn it. As of now, I can access emails and some internet at home via pager.
I've learned a big lesson from this- backup ur info FREQUENTLY so u won't lose all/most of important info!!
