Laptop won't boot, I get bluescreen and error code indicates hardware problem.

Laptop was purchased as new on Amazon April of '23
I check HP warranty page.
1 year warranty expired March of '23, 1 month before I purchased it.

Super.

Great.

Fantastic.

Step 1) Verify home insurance coverage for house and contents is greater than today's estimated value of home and contents.

B)



III) Put brand new milk in brand new freezer

Fore) Profit

III and Fore are interchangeable

Once checked the warranty of a toaster oven.

It read (almost) word for word...This toaster oven is warrantied for the life of the toaster oven.

I laughed, shook my head and only hoped the person that thought of this received a bonus.

Pretty common HP error and easy fix actually.

You simply take a regular fork out of your kitchen and use it to clean out the socket that you had it plugged into. It helps a little more if you wet the fork first to help loosen up the debris inside the socket.

I always pay for the next day send someone out and fix warranty. I can't be without a computer and it has come in handy more than a couple of times. 5 or 6 hundred extra is a no brainer for me. But myh computer is a work computer.
