    I can’t believe what times we live in. You pay a lot of money to buy yourself a new laptop and its not even working properly. I have a Vaio laptop myself its good its not one of the faulty series. Thanks for keeping us updated.

    Take Care

    It is really a pain when suddenly you found out that your gadget that you just bought is not working.

    Sana maayos na rin ang problema mo.

    btw, ang dami yatang nawalan ng pr ngayon since I am also suffering from it. Puro N/A na lang ang lumalabas.
