Poor Lappy...poor me

Sigh...my poor laptop died on me *sob*

I dunno what happened also...one moment it was alive and kicking. I even blogged on it on Friday night. On Saturday night, after I got home, I tried to turn on my computer, only to realise to my horror, something's terribly wrong. An error message came on, saying that some system file is missing/corrupted. And I just can't log into my operating system. That's it.

Just great huh...it's only a year and a half old! And I didn't download or install anything these days! My student said that the virus must have been manifesting in my laptop for awhile already. Really?!

Can't believe it. I called HP's helpline after I came into office on Monday, but coz I didn't have the lappy with me, the guy on the other end couldn't guide me through. Sigh. So much for helplines. By the way, their operating hotlines are shorter than mine - 830 to 530 pm, Mons to Fris. -.-'' I mean, you must have customers who are working, and if you are goign to operate at this kind of hours, how are you gonna help anyone this way? They would have knocked off even before I did! Oh well...

Looks like I may just have to take a day's leave to do this..call them n if it doesn't work, bring down to the repair centre. Thankfully I spend the majority of my time at work..it's just that on weekends, I would be rather lost...then again, mabbe it's not so bad afterall. I mean, I would either be out, or that it would force me to take a break. Ha...we'll know this weekend.
