*thinks back* now…what did I do to deserve this? The laptop has gone wrong again. Worse – it’s going seriously wrong (not booting, spontaneously restarting when it does manage it) but I can bet you anything that it’ll behave when I send it back again. Last night I could get it to crash (see why I was trying later) pretty much on command. This morning, I overwhelmed it but couldn’t get it to crash. Luckily last night I filmed it booting and failing to boot, and then on the suggestion of the Frog I caused it to restart and filmed it restarting!
Sounds to me and my dad like some kind of hard drive failure – chkdsk finds errors but can’t fix them (I reported that to the technicians but they did nothing about it). Dad’s computer did a similar thing only a few days ago and his technicians (company computer) simply replaced the hdd.
You get what you pay for I suppose.
On a pluser note, my rat project has finished and it looks like I’ll have some fun doing stats on it – lots to look at. Also tis a house warming for a friend tonight so I get to be social and all that.
