The Doctor's diagnosis isn't good...

Postby BFMF » Wed Jun 02, 2004 6:52 pm

I got my computer back from the computer shop today. The guy did everything he could think of, and he believes that the motherboard is bad. I've looked through the manual, but I don't see anything that mentions any type of warrenty. I looked at the manufacturer's website, and the company's website where I bought it from, but I don't see anything that mentions a warrenty. I guess i'm gonna have to e-mail 'em

After 2 and a half weeks without my computer, i'm starting to have computer/simulator withdrawels ::)

It may be a while before i'm back full time again ;D

Sorry to hear that Andrew. Maybe it's time for the big hammer. This is a proven solution to most problems. ;)

Rebuilding a completely new machine does sound good, it's just that i've got no money because of my real flying addiction ;)

Here's a list of some of the things I already need to replace

Joystick
Motherboard
Power Supply
CDROM/DVDROM/CDRW

If I were to build a better computer, I would also need a:

Processor
RAM
Video card

I just don't have the money :(
