Laptop Broke

matt88222 · April 26, 2011, 09:53:20 PM

So my laptop decided to break on me. I think the graphics card on it is shot. I won't be on minecraft for a couple of days until I'm able to get it fixed. (I think it's still under warranty thankfully)

I'll still pop on the forums and maybe get into IRC here and there but this old desktop can't run minecraft without me turning fog on all the way (even then it still laggs).

See ya 'round guys

Electronics are expensive :/

Just found out it's still under warranty, so it's gonna be fixed for free

Now I just gotta take a few days to get someone from Dell to get over here and fix it :\

Wow, $11,899 is probably the most expensive price for software I've ever heard. Then again I'd imagine some game developer software (Unreal engine, ect.) would cost even more. Too bad the don't advertise their prices

The dont advertise because normal people can not buy them. They only sell it to known developers.

I hope that Dell guy comes soon

I havent seen you often and was wondering what happened...

matt88222 · April 28, 2011, 10:53:27 PM

Ha, actually just got it fixed yesterday, (they're surprisingly fast!)

BTW, neat thing I learned is with dell computers, if you hold in the 'D' key on your keyboard and then press the power button, it'll do a test of your screen (for laptops only probably) so you can tell if your screen is broken or if it's something else.
