So I had to replace my laptop as they were unable to get it to boot up!
Took it to the same store where I have bought my previous laptops and they gave me a $30 discount on a trade in; plus because I was a 'faithful customer' they gave me a Free 'Notebook Cool Pad' ($20 value) and a 'My Laptop To Go' (not sure of the price value?) that holds both my laptop (cost just under $300) and my 'Notebook Cool Pad' and my cool pad and laptop sit right in the open case while I type and surf the internet sites (especially the Inn!)
Transferred my current game info from my Flash Drive, so I am back in 'gaming' business!
