Well you know, just had my computer sitting on my chair. watching some youtube videos and i soon went to sleep. simple yes? Upon waking up i was still wearing my headphones, which were then accidentally tugged by the cord from my arm making the laptop fall..No big deal right? turn it on, no cracks under the screen and no abormal screen coloration. Cept i look at the bottom right and the speaker has an X over it which means the driver for the sound got fucked up. Okay so i turn off the computer and back on. This is where every time on startup i had a frozen screen to deal with. Note that it works perfectly fine in safe mode: this means that the computer cannot read particullar drivers so after it finishes reading this or no sound will ever come through. Soo i trouble shoot (never works) run system memory check (almost) and system restore (nope) so i was fucked at this point. So i had to do what had to be done, which was use the system restore discs, mainly only losing any original files i was drawing was gonna be lost, anything else could be redownloaded which still kinna fuckin sucked. Also mind you this was when i woke up at 10 A.M. and it's 3 at this point. Now guess what, it's still freezing up. I redo everything i did before and nothing happened. But since this laptop is my full responsibility i continue to jam through everything i can and see that the memory diagnostics had the advanced run (which i forgot ive done before) and had to wait for about 4 hours i believe. AFTER ALL THAT i was turned into a happy little school girl as the sound card was rebooted and i could redownload all my shit once more after the restore i did back in April. Also another note it's 10 p.m. now so hopefully this stuff wont take long, i just hope it also fixed the problem i had when i download games from the net it wont cut out my connection.
