You are not a loser. accidents happen.

Really really cheap used laptops can be found on ebay or other places on the net.

If everyone who broke something was considered a loser well, we'd ALL be losers. Accidents happen, don't be hard on yourself! I hope you are able to find a replacement laptop soon.

I'm sorry that your laptop is broken ~ but you aren't a loser.

Try not to be so hard on yourself. It isn't easy, I know, but it's an important task to work on. Hope that you get a new or replacement computer soon.

I'm a prude and don't appreciate your language.

I do hope you get your computer issues worked out.

U don't even know what the letters stand for, you are assuming and maybe nobody has broken down the word for you so I will. When you assume you make an *** out of u and me

IQ: Notz is saying that she doesn't like you calling yourself names.

I am so sorry you aren't able to use your laptop. I know you are strapped for cash right now. Does a local library have computers you could use? Then you could get on for a little bit. Then you could look into cheap replacements. Check if your area has a freecycle.com. The one around me has people asking about computers and other people replying (and they are free- hence the name).

Thx all. I'm working on my laptop right now, three hours into it. I'm determined to make it work again.

Unfortunately I don't have any extra money right now, not even five dollars. I have to make it work.

In my area you don't have to donate first, they just ask that you donate something at some point.

so I spent 7 hours yesterday taking it completely apart and cleaning it out. the heat sink was covered in dust, so no wonder it was overheating and shutting down. It's working now, all except for the touchpad. my fiance is bringing over a mouse for me, so all should be well in about two hours.

A special thanks to those that hung out with me in the Lobby chat room last night because I couldn't switch rooms. You are all awesome!
