Whoa. Cat stop being so mean to your computers.
That's actually pretty insane at how many things have/are broken. I've had mine for almost a year and a half and the only thing wrong with it is... hm... I don't think there are any major problems with mine. Maybe give it a kick and tell it not to die. You going to get a new laptop by any chance?

I'm going to be trying to get a desktop, as I have a netbook for school and other portable purposes. This laptop has gotten an average of about 7 hours of usage every single day since April 21, 2007, the day before Diamond and Pearl were released in North America.

As I have said before that really all easy to fix.
Powerjack $20 CCFL(backlight) $10-30 or CCFLInverter $20 < more likely As for the track-pad alcohol usual clears that up. On the plug inside As for you display getting messed up thats cause by the heatsync screws backing out/ past getting old. As for the webcam you sol with that in the 3 hp laptops i have taken apart the cam is dead or accely stops the pc from booting My laptop is a lot older that yours and its still running fine. EDIT: i beg to differ. Quote:

How did your laptop become like this? Is it because of excessive usage, or is it due to some accidents (falling on the ground, etc.)?
I've always preferred desktops over laptops, by the way. They generally have better specifications, they don't turn off if they're not charged, and the keyboard is less awkward to use. Plus, there's a reduced risk of desktops falling off because they are not portable (unlike laptops). Last edited by Shadow; February 4, 2011 at 01:56:16 AM. |

Am I the only one that thinks that it's not unusual that Cat's laptop isn't working after four years?
7 hours daily for 365 days multiplied by 4 years is 10,220 hours, which is ~425 days, or 1.16 YEARS of use, which, in my opinion, is waay over the expected lifespan of a portable computer. I'm just scared for the netbook... O.o ~Anthony |

Damn, that's pretty bad. If you're going to get a new computer, though, get one with a VT-x enabled processor and at least 4 GB of DDR3 RAM. This way, that entire project I went on about last year with you might finally come to fruition.
But if you're trying to squeeze it out of the last drops of it's use, I hear that the remote desktop in Win7 is faster than in Vista and XP, so you could feasibly get some use out of it from your netbook. Otherwise, I dunno. Why not turn it into a server or put it out of it's misery? |

Here you go. The only change is Windows 7 Home Premium, another external DVD±RW drive, external monitors (1280x1024 and 1024x768) and a nice sound system. Battery is irrelevant now due to the inability to take it with me, but it still gets a good hour and a half. Quote:
