i am feeling a little intimidated now and also hearing that they are changing the way they deal with cases isn't inspiring me with confidence! Stop right there! You should never feel intimidated. Remember, you are in the right and they are in the wrong. Keep saying it to yourself because you need t...

Hello Pepper and welcome to our forum. Sorry to hear of the problems you are experiencing with your laptop. The problems you mention are manifestations of the Nvidia defect.

Well, I have had the laptop since March 2008. A year and a day or so after purchase I encountered my first problem. The laptop ran to overheat and would shut down, refusing to turn on again. I took it to an independent computer repair shop and they cleaned out the cooling system, wiped off some comp...

Hello Michael, You will need to speak to the card company regarding this issue. Before you let the engineer look at your laptop you should ask him that if he discovers your laptop is inherently defective would he be willing to put this into the report. I have noticed that for some reason some engine...

Hello Michael, You will need to get an engineers report that is independent from a laptop repair company in your country. The repair company will have to be independent of the retailer, so it cannot be Boulager. Do you know of any repair companies that can do this for you? Which country are you in? ...

Hello Michael, Well, if you paid by credit card then that means that the card company is jointly liable with the retailer. You can claim what is known as a Section 75 refund from the card company. Give the card company a call, explain that the laptop you purchased on your credit card is inherently d...

Hello kiosifmihai2003 and welcome to our forum. Firstly, sorry I missed your first post. How did you pay for the laptop? If you paid by credit card then you would have extra protection and could take action against the card company. I would be very wary about sending them your laptop for repair when...

I spoke with Packard Bell France.
They had offered to repair the laptop at my charge ... so It risks to be very expensive.
I think I will send it to have an idea how much does it costs.
Hope that it won't be more expensive that the laptop !

Bye !
