# She's very rich now.
And I got a reply to my reply regarding laptop repair.

"In this case we would need to run diagnostic on your laptop (£69.00) to find if power cheap can be repaired or if need to be replaced."

They can repair chips, apparently. Or cheaps.

# I'd also go for the former
also as I have no idea what the problem is here, I am in a good position to put forward an uninformed suggestion, which is to download Speccy. www.speccy.com - I'm sure it will not help at all, but is a neat little utility all the same (same people who do ccleaner and defraggler)

# I had a slightly similar circumstance with a power thingy . . .
When I told them that I could not turn it on . . . they suggested that I first turn it off . . . I said "Next Technician!"

# The machine got replaced a long time ago
so now it's just sitting around being non-functional. Bit like me, really :)
Would be nice to get the laptop fixed, otherwise it's just a paperweight. And I hate chucking out tech stuff.

# but what is a power cheap?
WHAT IS IT MAN

WE MUST KNOW!

it isn't possibly "LOL, THIS $0.50 connector has a dry joint on it, let's spend 30 seconds removing that and resoldering" is it?

# Component failure, most likely
The machine worked fine for quite a few years before failing.
