Hello, I've got some laptop issues with the following laptop.
1.3Ghz Centrino
512MB RAM
60GB HD
ATi MRadeon 9200 32MB
Yada Yada
So, I was sitting around one day playing solitaire, and suddenly, the PC just turned off. "Weird." I said to myself. When I turned it back on, it didn't boot. It came to this "COMPAQ" Screen with a little caption that says "Press F10 to Enter Setup" At this screen, which is nothing out of the ordinary, it then begins to give me trouble. It just... locks up. I can hit F10, and it'll freeze at ENTERING SETUP. I can still restart it by hitting ctrl + alt + delete, and I can use a USB keyboard to hit F10, and restart. I took it in to repair, and they said they won't fix it because of water damage. This is impossible considering the fact that I respect the items I spend money on, and there is no way it was even near any form of liquid nourishment. Now, I also thought that if there was any water damage on a computer, then it wouldn't turn on at all, correct? Either way, any ideas?
