 |
|
Hey all,
I bought a laptop about a year ago, on the cheap. It's only a few years old and it's actually worked fine, for the most part.
A few days ago it started slowing down... freezing a lot, taking longer and longer to load windows. Now it's reallllllly slowed down. I mean... a half hour to load windows and start any program, everything choppy and slow and freezing constantly...
I know little about computers... I downloaded AVG antivirus, and it basically just slowed down everything worse.
However, as I type, it seems like despite taking forever for anything to load... something suddenly click and it suddenly starts working fine.
Still, I know something's not right. Only here for a few more months and not looking to buy a new computer... anyone want to help a technically inept man? Either with suggestions or a few bucks for a repair or cleansing or whatever?? |

| Do you have, or can you borrow a Windows install CD? Back up your files and do a clean install.. that should help bring things back up to pace. |

Ha... um... the thing about that is... I don't have a CD player. Is there anything else I can do?
I don't mind paying twenty or forty thousand to make this thing work well again, if even for a few more months. If any independant repair men want to make some extra cash and get this thing going, please let me know. |

Take it to Yongsan - specifically seon-in Plaza.
Lots of tech repair guys there can fix you up and not cost you too much either. |

HP says its not an HP issue but must be software issue. yey. need to get a second opinion  plz let me know more details if you have them. thanks! |
