보장할 수 있습니까?

cheers mate

I believe it's actually 보증, not 보장....

[blackjack]

in google translate 보증 comes up as Warranty whereas 보장 comes up as Guarantee.

I really just want to know that if the vista they install on the laptop will be guaranteed as working legit (don't care if it is or not).

So if 보장 is guarantee, then I think thats the one I am looking for

but cheers tzechuk, i learnt a new word

Be careful because 포장, which might be what they think you've said depending on the context (if you're buying something) and your pronunciation, means 'wrapping'.

So, particularly if it was in the shopping context, you might be understood as having asked, 'can you wrap this?'. I know someone who this happened to.

Just thought I'd mention that, although perhaps this isn't the situation you were thinking of, OP.

edit - oops, hadn't read properly what the OP subsequently said about why he was asking. Still, I'll leave what I said as is, it might be relevant to others.
