Brand new fucking lap-top and the monitor doesn't even fucking work after a month and a half.

Fucking computers

Should still be under warranty, get a new one. Although with laptops I dont think I really trust anyone besides Sony, Dell and Apple. Although I've heard some bad stories about Dell on occasion if you still have your warranty alive and kicking at least they get repairs/replacements out to you.

Rorschach · 02-11-2004, 11:46 PM

Try a panasonic toughbook, military grade.

Still under warranty for sure. pain in the ass though to get it fixed...

Have you checked if it's in CRT mode?
Have you plugged in an external monitor recently and forgot to switch it back to lcd?

Never had a problem with Toshiba. Several of my partners use Toshiba laptops.

SleazyDream · 02-12-2004, 12:14 AM

let me guess, it's the 17" model.

mine's a piece of shit - drove me to buy a mac

ztik · 02-12-2004, 12:17 AM

Damn, I havn't turned my toshiba laptop off for almost a year. Still working perfect.

V_RocKs · 02-12-2004, 12:18 AM

Yeah, don't forget the most important part. Warranty shmoranty. Who gives a fuck really? We want the shit to fucking work for a few years with no problems, DAMMIT!

Write to PCMagazine, Laptops magazine, PCWorld, Maximum PC, etc, and try to get one of their investigative reporters to ask why it failed in the first 2 months of ownership... Squeeky wheel gets the greace, or in this case, the new laptop.

johnbosh · 02-12-2004, 12:18 AM

wow sucks

eroswebmaster · 02-12-2004, 01:34 AM

I had a similar issue with my sony vaio...like within a month the network card burned up...the trouble of sending it out to be repaired while I had work to do was just not worth it....went out and bought an external card.

I thought that was normal... Will it still be covered by warranty?

Ya probably...and who knows they might even throw in a colon massage for your troubles, at no extra cost to you
