For example, he headphones don't work. Actually, they're selective on when they work when they don't. Sometimes they work but the mic doesn't. For quite a while, neither have worked at the same time. Not great for Skype.
But alas, Larry is dying. Yes, my laptop's name is Larry
The speakers aren't working AT ALL now. They were fine this morning. I put the master volume on mute while my roommate was talking to her parents (fyi, I've moved into a brand new flt! Woohoo! It's gorgeous, but I digress...), and Larry has been silent since. Ive done your bogstandard on/off, resart, systems check, even pulled out the battery and checked nothing on the bottom was falling off.I'm rather annoyed and quite upset. Not just because I wa working on a nifty DVD thingy when I realised, but also because I've stuck with this od thing since I got it, even refused a trade wth my mum's new (back then) Vista laptop. P.s. thank god, I loathe Vista!
Does anyone have any inkling as to what it might be? I'm quite tech savy and a good problem solver, but this has me a little stumped. Taking into a shop is a last resort because A- it's quite expensive in England and B- admittedly, I have a few *coughillegalcough* programmes from Kuwait that the might sneer at. Sure, I can take them off, put them on a hard drive and ask my parents to bring the installation CDs (legal or nae), but that's in about a month and I have things to do! And I can;t watch things to listen to my music
Sigh. Keep your fingers crossed or Larry. Maybe he'll eel better in the morning when I put him away. Night!
). I'm guessing that Larrys sitting in happy old XP land (based on the anti-Vista sentiment)
