adnanshah247 Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Hi folks, my laptop was stolen so need a replacement. Luckily my files were all on my USB and nothing on my actual machine. Funds are very tight at the moment so looking for something cheap as chips, best possible spec please (demanding i know ) , need to do uni work on it and stuff. Thanks a lot, Adnan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adnanshah247 Posted September 25, 2009 Author Share Posted September 25, 2009 How the hell did that happen? Left it on the seat of my mates car, stopped outside a shop to grab some food, two seconds a chavvy youth ran past stuck his hand in and ran with it, windows were half open and both of us were inside, somebody at the bus stop said some little punk stuck his hand in grabbed something and ran! turned out to be my laptop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abz Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Just spoke to the missus, I brought her a new laptop & I could get the old one off her. Its a Compaq NC6220C. She said its Blue Screening but it most than likely is the HDD on its way out. You could have that to borrow if you want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could have that to borrow if you want? yeah i do have spare HDD's. how much would you let it go for? i rather buy it than borrow it, say if i loose it or damage it..... if my memory services me right, this is the 6220 right? im really familiar with this machine, had it a while :- http://www.geekwithlaptop.com/wp-content/gallery/cheapest-note-books/hp_compaq_nc6220.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abz Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 What she wants for it? Its my bloody laptop! Nothing mate seriously its yours, its about 5 years old. I can not remember the specs but I think its running Pentium-M which I think is running 1.5Ghz with about 512 DDR RAM - the HDD I think is about 40GB but that obviously you might need to change that. I guess if you upgraded the RAM & did not install too many things then you could get away with it! She is not bringing it down until next weekend...hope thats okay? Please remind me if I forget but when she has it I'll drop it down to you mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
