Dell Studio Laptop. RIP?
« on: January 20, 2012, 05:14:45 PM »
So.. i somehow managed to kill my gf's laptop (a day before she goes back to JA for school... fml).

Was updating the BIOS from the Dell website, during the flashing process, the laptop froze up for about 3 minutes. Then i proceeded to hard reset the laptop ie, pull out the battery and power, now the laptop doesnt start. After consulting W1nTry, it seems most likely that the BIOS is corrupted.

So i was advised to carry the laptop to a dell provider somewhere local and see if they could do anything about it, if not have it sent back to the manufacturer. Is there any other options i have? If not, where is the best place to carry the laptop?

Carry it to Netsar, located on Mucurapo road if I'm not mistaken. Authorised dell partner. They handle all in warranty repairs for Dell and HP locally. You might get lucky.

I second the netser recommendation.

Thought they were in the east though, Arouca or so.

I believe Microtron is located on Mucurapo Rd, not Netser.

Yea but even if you call them they would ask u to call Dell first and open a support ticket then they will send the request to get it fixed locally
