Laptop Issues

I’m bloody pissed by Acer,  their product and their substandard service. Its just one problem after another.

Last week I was forced to contact them for onsite warranty service because my laptop screen had failed. The technician was four hours late and the screen that he brought was spoilt. So, a new appointment was made.

In true Acer tradition, the technician was an hour late. He changed the screen and all was well, or so I thought.

Yes the screen worked. But now, according to my laptop’s error messages and reluctance to open my video files, my internet browser and a whole host of other things, it seems that the video card is spoilt! Damn it! I tried to backup my files, and a prompt comes up, telling me that the laptop has insufficient memory to conduct a file transfer. I tried to transfer the files individually but still the same thing.

What the fucking hell was that man? Does my bloody laptop have Alzeimers or dementia! It must be damn serious if it can’t even do a transfer of 800kb.

I have never dropped my laptop or handled it uncaringly. Yet it failed on me, and many of my classmates who were as foolish as I was to purchase an Acer laptop.

I don’t know what to say. Acer laptops must be bloody cunning. First, the screen doesn’t show. When that problem is sorted, the true horrors begin… The screen is just a diversion.

Acer had better give me a prompt and satisfying service. Or else, I’ll do my best to petition them off Ngee Ann Polytechnic’s list of laptop suppliers…

  1. Seeing is believing Bala. I’m stuck with using my mom’s laptop.

    And Acer just sent me a message to check with my school helpdesk or go to their service area, which happens to be at Jurong! Nabei.

  2. Zhi Wei, shut up already. Are you even willing to live with a spoilt laptop throughout the whole holiday if you use it very often…

  3. “What the fucking hell was that man? Does my bloody laptop have Alzeimers or dementia! It must be damn serious if it can’t even do a transfer of 800kb”

    I laughed out loud.

  4. Both of you, just request a change for the newer acer models. they look better and perform much better.

  5. Eugene-kun,
    if only that were possible. I wanted to get the technician to replace my battery. But he tells me the warranty period for battery is over.

    If they can’t even replace the battery, I shouldn’t get my hopes up on the laptop.

  6. Bala,
    lol. Conspiracy theory ah? There are people staying in Jurong too.

    Seriously, I think they should move their office to Bishan. That way, I could strike a really ‘close frienship’ with the technicians…

  7. The Bermuda Triangle was formerly known as the Bermuda Square, until Chuck Norris roundhouse kicked one of the sides off.

    Chuck Norris gave Mona Lisa that smile

    Chuck Norris evolved a Hitmonlee and named it Hitmonorris. Each time it used a Roundhouse kick, all Pokemon, including Ghost-types, are 1-hit KO’ed.

  8. AAAAGRH!, DAMN CHUCK NORRIS!
