Whelp I think my laptop hit its last leg, any help?
12 years ago
General
It started making this vrring noise yesterday but apparently it was only temporarily as it started to do it again this morning... In my current major at college i cant have this... especially when all my story ideas are there for the newspaper at the university i go to. This also doesn't help the fact that someone tried to access my steam account last night and i have no clue as to who it is. So I'm trying to take care of that as well, and whoever it is has to otherwise hate me or they just feel the need to make my situation worse. To whomever that is, you're pretty much a bastard, especially when I'm in the situation I'm in.
So basically I'm looking at this laptop here http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B7K11MI/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&tag=vglnk-c2201-20 but I’m not sure if it’s the right one I should get, which is a good gaming rig but allows me to get other work done pretty quickly. Especially since my major is in journalism and that requires me to run around getting stories from people and the fastest way for me to get information is by typing. I need help finding a new laptop ASAP and if you can help find me something similar to that link above, especially on Best Buy which there is one close by to where I am, that would be of great help.
I’ve also done a lot to help this community of people out over the years, giving money to people who need it, commissioning people under the knowledge that in some way I’m helping that person succeed and move forward. What I’m asking here is if you are willing to help me out… I’m just trying to find some way to move forward as fast as I can and this sets me back by a lot, especially under my field… I’m also pretty scared as to what may happen…
TL:DR My laptop is literally on its last leg, I need help… please help me.

That laptop looks like a decent buy for the money involved, but you may also want to look in HP Pavilion Notebooks, I've had one for over 5 years now and it still runs like a dream, multiple games and all.
Here's one i found that's a pretty good deal: http://www.amazon.com/HP-G6-2235us-Accelerated-Processor-SuperMulti/dp/B00AHKFDWS/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1379269974&sr=8-3&keywords=hp+pavilion+laptop
And here is one at Best Buy: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Pavilion+17.3%22+Laptop+-+4GB+Memory+-+750GB+Hard+Drive/1739112.p;jsessionid=AB8E2508A64A3303F178AEE5EC322B6F.bbolsp-app01-160?id=1219062510621&skuId=1739112&st=hp%20pavilion%20laptop&cp=1&lp=1
And as for your steam, I'd probably change your password right away just to be safe.
But we can talk about this later too, it'll be alright hon, I'm happy to help in any way I can!
And my my it sounds like someone has got some serious HP-hate goin on over there~ XP
Well if you think it's some string then just be careful when your taking your laptop apart and all that. If your looking for Lenovo or Asus laptops, I'll try stomping around and see what I can dig up~
If you want to run modern, or relatively "heavy" games it's going to be a bit of an investment. Since you need to have a laptop for other things that's going to make it even more of an investment because laptops are often underpowered and overpriced. It's a good idea to take a close look at the minimum, or even better recommended requirements for the game that you want to play and shop based on that. Especially with the new console generation coming around you'll really feel a low powered machine because it will not be able to run the countless ports from those machines.
