      laptop problem

      a while ago i got a bit angrey and i hit my laptop (e-system) , it shocked and cleared the hard drive, so the operating system and everything was cleared so nothing really was happining when i turn it on. i changed the hard drive (dell), so something actually comes up now, but the boot up fails, the automatic repair utility doesnt help, so i tryed restoring to factory settings, but the boot up still fails.

      i have no idea what to do now, any sugestions?

      If you hit it while in an angry state, I wouldn't doubt that there's much more than just a boot-up issue with your laptop. There so much going on inside of a laptop, and they're all the more prone to damage since there's the issue of breathing room for the parts as opposed to a desktop.

      Take it to a repair shop, but chances are they're going to make the charges not worth the repair. Getting a new laptop is the best choice, imo.

      And what is E-Systems? I've never heard of it.

      e-system is just another brand.

      i think i might have messed up the RAM aswell as my hard drive, im trying to get to it just now so i can change it but the dam screws are so tight.

      I have no other advice for you than to turn that philips screwdriver harder, lol.
