omg thats seriously a tough scenario
if you are lucky it could be a semi-brick or a dual bios mobo

otherwise you may have to try the service centre

Well, the problem is, I don't have any of those warranty papers.. . So thinking of doing it myself..

I don't have any other info on this man. Now your best bet is to take it to the service center and pay for the repair.

yeah warranty in India is rather poor
I have come across a forum somewhere where the sole objective is sharing bios's of all laptops and desktops to create an inventory or a custom bios
if i find it again,ill link it
even saiyangoku wanted the link to this forum
sadly I had discovered it 1-2 years ago so I dont have the link atm

Please help me around by suggesting with some excellent yet affordable thermal paste for my 3 and half yrs old corei7 hp dv6 6165tx.
The one that my serviceman puts is some bad chinese paste that works for a month or so.

500GB hard disk drive for a Lenovo G550 laptop

A friend's Lenovo G550 laptop's Western Digital Scorpio Blue 320GB internal hard disk drive recently went kaput. He is looking to purchase a 500GB 2.5'' hard disk drive of a reliable brand; offering a convincing manufacturer's warranty period.


Which one should he get?

Hitachi or WD like Saiyangoku suggested
OR
an SSD if he wants to give it a new lease of life(expensive and limited storage but speedy and uses lesser power=better battery life and speed)

^choice is based on requirements,personally I need a large capacity hdd most of the time so I havent put an SSD in my primary slot

Import Force 16GC from xotic pc. Good config makes a laptop sexy IMO, else even a 60k laptop with ULV i7+920m/930m+ HD screen is same as 40k basic laptops.

what will be the cost. Import means I think it will exceed the budget.
