thanks...  it is under warranty. but i really need it here to work. some
of it needs sound...
i wouldn't really go into the laptop myself - i've done that in the past
and althuoght it was partially successful i don't want to go through it
again. if it was a desktop maybe but not with this laptop...

the problem is that if i deal with them over the phone the second i
mention that i'm not using windows they turn red and say 'we are not
supporting your machine then. you have to reimage (?!?) it'. uhh..
reimage?!?... ok...
