Busted hard drive... (Severely Urgent, please don't skip..)
10 years ago
So something happened to my laptop. And I have no idea what. For some reason, nothing happens on the screen. The battery charges fine. The hard drive status light flickers once. The optical light on the mouse flickers at the same time as the HDD light. It isn't a screen problem, because the mouse light would be solid otherwise. I've tried all the battery tricks. The drive isn't spinning. The fans are working, so power supply is perfect. But every time I hit the power button, no backlight and no *insert company logo here* boot up screen. And no ability to access BIOS.
I don't know what's going on, it was running perfectly smooth this morning and only turned it off for an hour and a half before this started. I don't know what to do about it, as replacing or fixing it will cost more than I have or can earn (being homeless tends to make getting any income kinda impossible, especially when you already have next to nothing. The computer is all I had, my novel progress is now trapped on it...)
I don't know if the comp is gonna pull some kind of miracle in a couple of days or what, like my possessions sometimes do, but I could really use any help possible. If you don't have money to spare, then I don't blame you because neither do I. But at the very least, give me some words of encouragement or send this journal to a friend. This really is a desperate situation for me. And to prove that I'm legit, check out the public preview of my novel.

If anybody is willing to send a buck, and I am fully aware that I'm asking for a lot from the average internet surfer, send me a PM so I can tell you how to do so. And thank you for your time.

Shit, man. Sounds like you're in a crappy situation here. Very sorry to say I can't do anything to help (very nearly broke myself) so all I can say is hang in there. I'll send this on to as many people as I can so hopefully some of them can help out. Good luck.

OP
Thank you for the help, it really is appreciated that you're sending this to others :)
