Use their credit card and buy the extended warranty and you will get 3-4 years out of a new one- if your current one can't be fixed.

Also, as I walk around the computer shop fI am stuck at right now for software/data installations, I see around 25 used computers, all only about one year old, totally refurbished, for around just $200-300. They are all I5 and I7 chips, loaded with RAM and come with great warranties at no extra cost. 🤔

I have an HP Envy 17" touchscreen laptop. Can't recall how long I have had it, but it's starting to sheit the bed on me. Screen goes all scramble-y and it locks up. I have to force shut it down, and then it starts right back up and is fine for a while, until it does it again. Never know when it's going to happen.

Costco has a similar one for $900.

You computer guys... what is it? Bad motherboard? Or is it just old and time to replace it? Or maybe is it fkn windows because I haven't bumped up to 11 yet?

Fkn computers... It's a love hate relationship.

Sounds like maybe a video processor or overheating or both. Are you up to taking it apart to clean out the fan(s)? You can blow it out but you need to shove a wire into the fan blades to prevent it from over-spinning when hit with compressed air.

New is nice, Costco is good for that. Off lease computers are pretty cheap.

If you have windows 10, it's not that old. Maybe Tank drooled on it while watching puppy porn. You might try calling HP for a diagnosis before you write it off.

My guess issue with windows.Run a diagnosis test and if any issues with hard drive they'll show up. Waiting on HP laptop sent to HP Service. I took out extended warranty and it has been well worth the cost. They replaced last laptop with upgraded one due to many issues with old one. I doubt I would purchase another HP.

I would check out repair costs before spending BIG $$$$ on another.

Good luck 🤞

Doesn't sound quite the same, but my Asus has a bad connection between the screen and the guts of it. Just goes black though, it doesn't freeze. $125 fix I'm trying to put off for a while by never moving the screen
