My computer that has all my icons I was working on and other important stuff has crapped out on me and will not turn on. :cry: (I am sending this through my iMac G3 BTW) I will be on the forums as usual, but I may not be uploading videos for a while. :( It all started as I was using it and all of a sudden it turned off, so I turn it back on and it boots up and gives me a BSOD (something_CHECK_EXECPTION) and resets, boots up gives the same thing and shuts off. Then I turn it on and it won't turn on and I notice that the charge light is not on. I check the cord and everythings plugged in. All I have to say about this is :censored: COMPAQ, AND THEIR SHITTY LAPTOPS, AND :censored: WINDOWS FOR THE WORST OS EVER!!!!!

Did you install any new software, hardware? Change any settings or have any sudden shut downs? Try this, when booting tap the f8 key until a screen appears giving you boot option. Try "Last known good configuration" or enter safe mode. See if that does anything.

You didn't back it up? I have a Windows Home Server and makes an image of each computer I have every night. If I buy a new computer or mine crashes I can do an entire restore in a breeze. Sorta like Apples Time Capsule.
Sounds like some kind of hardware issue with your laptop. So its likely not a windows issue at all. You could try taking the hard drive and putting it in an external drive enclosure or another laptop.

I did backups but stopped 3 months ago because Windows livecare was saying it couldn't backup for some reason. I could put the HD in another laptop but I may have found the problem.But there is a couple of possibilities of my laptop being ok: 1. I need to open my laptop and take the HD out and put it back in (Which I DO know how to do.) 2. Find a place to get the HD dumped 3. Do step one and check the RAM wires where it hooks up because I have had to do that before because HP (crappy) Tech Support wanted me to.
UPDATE: Replaced HD replaced ram. Plugged back in power cord. not charging. obiously something important in it is fried.

Things seem ok to me

Not to me. ive seen Hate Speech and some lamar dude slandering an admin. Also I heard it will be about 200 dollars :blink: to transfer data from my hard drive and that BSOD I had before it failed on me probably WAS my HDD but it couldnt have because if it was, I could still plug it in and it would work but the charge light doesnt go on as if it is dead so i doubt it IS the HDD. (Source of Tech Support: GeekSquad) If I could go to Compaq right now I would do this for making me lose an estimate of 100 dollars of TWC music: :finger: :censored: YOU COMPAQ & HP WITH YOUR SH!TTY COMPUTERS!!!!
