Common Laptop Problems
Help! I've accidentally dropped my laptop!
Unfortunately dropping a laptop can cause numerous problems, from scraping
the case to smashing the screen. Many older laptops did have
modular parts that can be replaced, but now newer and smaller
laptops have almost everything integrated itself on the motherboard,
so that they are very expensive to repair. In some cases, depending
on the damage done and age of laptop, it can be cheaper to replace the whole laptop than have it repaired.
My laptop won't boot up properly. What's going on?
There are many factors that can go wrong with the operating
system and other software on laptops. These days many laptops
have customised software installed according to a persons needs.
Try to go into Safemode by pressing the F8 key on your keyboard
and try to do clean up your laptop using antivirus.
If the need arises to reformat the laptop, reinstall the operating
system from the CDs that were supplied with the laptop. Also
make sure that the drivers CD's are available at the time of
installation.
