| 669426 | 2008-05-15 10:36:00 | I've just been speaking to a university student in Christchurch about her Dell laptop but the problem is way out of my league - especially at a distance . Her laptop is now displaying the blue screen of death when she turns it on showing instructions to disconnect new hardware, turn off and try again . There is no new hardware . No way to turn off either except hold down power button . Can't get to Safe Mode . Been turned off and on quite a few times . I thought she'd be surrounded by geeks but seemingly not . Who should she go to with this? My brother-in-law is at Canty Varsity and he used to manufacture computers in Aussie and program them . Send your email addy to highbright33@yahoo . com and I will give you his email address Lurking ps that's if you haven't managed to have someone put it to rights . lurks . |

| 669429 | 2008-05-15 21:13:00 | Theres not many, if any <insert cheese here> pc techs in chch who post on PF1. Strange, pretty much everywhere else there is! :confused: I am in CHCH but respectfully no longer do end user support. |

| 669430 | 2008-05-15 21:18:00 | Good call there. :clap BTW, in case anyone was wondering, the reason I said that was not to offend anyone, I was not intending that, just wanted to see actually how many people were in that area. You Cantabs don't seem to be proud of your home town - not one of you so far has your real location in your profile! :p |

| 669431 | 2008-05-15 21:42:00 | haha no worries. You Cantabs don't seem to be proud of your home town Canterbury is a region and Christchurch is the second largest City(not town) in New Zealand, now I am really offended........... ok I am over it. :) |

| 669434 | 2008-05-16 11:37:00 | Hey guys and gels, thanks for the offers of help which I appreciate . The update is that next day the damned thing started up good as gold so . . . . . . . I'll just sit an wait for another late night text in panic . :D It's interesting and a bit frustrating . This is the second time I've asked for help here for another person and each time you good people have come up trumps with offers to assist . And both times the problems which looked serious (from a distance) disappeared by themselves . So I'm a little embarrassed to be wasting your time . I'd just like to say thankyou to the Press F1 community, it really is a privilege to belong to such a decent group of people + one American . :D |
