    LONG AWAITED...

    Finally!!! She's back up and kicking!!! Woohoo!!! For those who didn't know, my lappie fell into a coma last Saturday probably due to heat-stroke. She was fine in the morning but then she started to fall sick in the evening when I came back from class. 1st symptom was the slowness of movement and constant freezing. Eventually she just slipped into a coma where her vitals were working but she just gave no response or visual feed-backs. Started to get really worried as I have exams and a laptop presentation to prepare for the comming week and month.


    So I asked around for good computer shops and the concact from Dell India. Finally I called Dell India and explained my problems but they could not do anything as lappie's warranty was over. Started to panic a little as I don't really know where to send my lappie since Dell wasn't able to do anything. Called mum back in Malaysia and in turn she called Dell Malaysia to re-new lappie's warranty. What a relief that brought when I saw the sms from mum. Called Dell India immediately to report my case and they said that a technician would come and fix her up.

    So I waited and waited and waited. After a few promises that the technician would come next day but didn't I started to get quite frustrated. Kept on calling and pushing them they said there were waiting for the parts to undergo the transplant as they suspect her mother-board and LCD were spoilt. Finally, the courier guy came around 12pm to send the parts and the technician arrived around 6.30 last Tuesday and I the surgery got underway. Part by part were slowly removed and checked and finally only the mother-board was replaced. Darn, I thought I could also get a new LCD...hehe. No pictures were taken during the surgery due to a camera shy doctor and risk of infection during the surgery. After a 2 hour long surgery, she's finally up and ready once again.
    Many thanks to mum and dad for renewing the warranty and Dell India for sending the technician all the way here to save all my trouble to drop it off somewhere. Oh yeah...know why the parts took so long? It was packed in Singapore and flew to Bangalore before being transported to Chennai.
    PS...my friend keep asking me to get a proper girlfriend as I keep relating my personal stuffs as my wife (guitar) and many other girlfriends...hehe. =S
