Both my computers have packed in....
my gaming rig has fucked, the mobo knackered and also caused something to go wrong with the monitor which was a Samsung 22" syncmaster.
The monitor is dead my i5-750 is dead.. mobo is also dead.
for the price it will cost to me to replace these, i might aswell build a new rig with the extra bits that are left.
then o top that off.. the laptop i am using now ha about an hour of life in it, the fan has fucked and it can't cool itself down...for replacement i would have to replace the entire motherboard which works out about £200 lmfao, not worth it..and also the keyboard is knackered and even though o repace keyboard is only £20, what is the point>?
fuck it.
Gunna get some parts today and start building a new pc, just in time for bf3 ...
2 computers fuck in the same week, jeez, good job i got soe cash saved from not drinkin or smokin weed like i used to..
sorry for typos the keys work as and when hey want to.

That is a kick in the balls!!
But Laptop Repair for £200
was that quote?
What makes you think you would have to replace the Motherboard?
If you dont want to payout for a New lappy, and consider repairing it,
I do carry out a-lot of Laptop repairs.
And would be happy to take a look at no charge. Just cover P&P
For your Keyboard, you might be lucky, i have 5 different types of Keyboards and they all work.
One might fit yours?
There is not that many different types of keyboards.

i have a keyboard replacement coming ( i ordered in the week for £20) but the mobo problem is the fan has cooked some of it [mobo] and i keep getting allsorts of problems, it isn't repairble i think by looking that a quarter of the mobo is cooked, the fan hasn't been working for about 3 days, without being able to get rid of hot air it's just making it worse... unfortunetly.
I'm gunna go n get parts for a pc, i have £700-50 cash in hand, so i should get a nice setup now.

ordered all the shit yesterday and because of so many transactions the bank refused them all today ffs.
So i have had to go through 10 people to get them all authroised, a ballache... bank declining because they thought fraud was going on compared to the history of the account.
All of a sudden a few hundred come out on he card and they think it's a crime lol, it is a good job though, because it could of been someone else robbing me for all they knew.
Just felt a bit of a tit trying to explain all this to the shops/webs i bought items from.
anyways, parts on route using couriers, can't afford fo royal fail to let me down,

Yeah, annoying as it is when it's legit, it's good the banks take such steps. Of course they don't do it for you - they do it to save the money they lose when you claim it's fraud. Still, works in your favour - if it actually is fraud.
