Geek Squad is a ing joke. They will charge you an arm and a leg just to format and reload your system (thats pretty much what they do 90% of the time). Installing a new motherboard? forget it. You might as well buy a new laptop if your planning on taking it to Best Buy.
If Mouse can do it, go for it. If it was me who was asked to fix it and its an old laptop (3 or 4 years), I'd advise you not to waste the money on it.
2 reasons.
1) Nothing against Mouse in regards to his technical know how, but you run the risk of totally ruining the laptop from a non-trained technician and still have to s out the money for a new motherboard at the least. Im seriously not trying to dog on what Mouse can do, all I'm saying is I wouldnt agree to that type of work without letting the person know that could go horribly wrong.
2) If its close to 3 years old, you might as well buy a new one. Chances are you could get a $600 laptop thats just as comparable, if not infinately better, than what you have now and Mouse could transfer your data over quite easily.
I'm just saying.....
Whats good vato, let me know what you got left for the parts, stop holding out on the goodies, I know you got your stash hidden in the corner. Let me get them goods.
Mouse, thanks for this. I've been talking with this guy---very nice and he has my laoptop now. Doesn't look good thoughI'll let ya know what happens.....
Well I've been looking at laptops and am suffering severe sticker shock. Maybe I'm wrong but it looks like prices are way higher than when I bought mine a couple of years ago. Anyway I'm thinking I like the Sony Vaio, but Toshiba are the only ones that keep jumping out at me as having any good deals, but I am unsure if I should be gunshy about them? Also some Acers look like a lot of machine for the price but I really don't know anything about those.
I had the "CPU Doctor" who Mouse recommended, diagnose my Toshiba and the motherboard was friedI have found a couple of replacements for about $250---so I think I'll just save my laptop and look out for a cheaper mb over the next few months to have installed for my daughter. In the meantime, if anyone needs laptop work done, I recommend you give the CPU Doctor (Ken White) a call. He was very helpful, took only a couple of hours to get back to me with the diagnosis--and charged me only $25, if I wanted to pay it, since there wasn't anything he could do.
Once again, thanks Mouse![]()
I have owned a mid-range Toshiba satellite(?) laptop for over 3 years and have had zero problems - never even a system restore. It was a graduation present so I don't know the pricing exactly but I couldn't be more pleased with how it's done. I use it extensively for both work and college and it's been a beast.
Dude it's a very simple solder job. Find a tech on craigslist you will pay one quarter the price for the repair.
Mouse, I'm the one that told you to look for someone on Craigslist. Sorry I didn't spoon feed the to you.
Dude Kim left me no rent food or phone. I had to leave all my furniture,Tv,and PC parts behind.
I have a few Dells i want to put together and give them to the shelter but I am low on parts i need your base plate on that D600
how much you want for it?
303-8423
Awwww
seriously, I did look on CL after your post, I just didn't have time to make a very thorough search. But I thank you too!![]()
Let the haters hate! I work for GS and if this CL don't work out (personally would NEVER do busines on CL, especially if it involves you leaving expensive hardware w/ some randie) I'd be happy to take a look at it for you.
This vato has a future here at ST!![]()
