I'm sure the U.S. has their Keyhole spy satellite zoomed in on that puppy. :hehe:

Nah, if they want to download nekkid pics, I'm sure they're not on dialup. :hehe:

lol, I should call up my pakistani friends for some 'distraction' :sweat:

sent the mobo back for RMA today, hopefully I'll get a replacement fast.
I was lucky though, because the warranty expires in 3 days :doh:

Get it checked. If it's the display that needs replacing, better to do it while the warranty is good....remember to remove those videos first. ;) :hehe:

Of course you don't. ;)


Could be a battery issue too. Something that puts your laptop to go in suspend or hybernate mode, when the battery is low.

I did that to mine.....killed the battery. :sweat:

I had the battery in while the plug was in.

Hmm friend of mine has his battery removed when he's plugged in all the time. I can see it could extend the battery life in the long run.

I don't care about mine, since I got it from work. (and barely use it..)
