Shoulda got an ASUS. Fastest laptop I've ever had.

I ordered an ASUS because it was like 3lbs and I didnt wanna lug a big ass HP around campus. It came out of the box with problems. It wouldnt charge and I could only use it when it was plugged up.

 

So im still lugging around a big ass 17 inch HP like a middle aged businessman....

Oddly enough, I had a 17 inch HP before I got this one.

i have an MSI laptop and this thing is built like a tank. i bought it to play games on it but it basically stopped being able to. this thing has

1. fallen down more times than i can count including down a flight of stairs

2. survived a power surge

3. has had to be reformatted at least 3 times.

4. originally came with Windows 8 for christsakes. not 8.1, 8.

literally every laptop i've ever had has gone in less than 3 years. this one is on its 6th. i want a new laptop but i refuse to buy one until this thing dies

BUT

IT

DOESN'T

DIE.

That's why i got a toshiba. I found a neat one at the pawnshop so who knows how old it was. Thing lasted me from 2009-2014. I just dropped it and messed up the charger but i put tons of porn on it and its turn on NOW if i wanted it to.

My new toshiba is shit. I think they purposely make most laptops crap so u keep buying them.

Never buy a laptop from a friggin pawnshop.. Toshiba is a reputable brand.. Always LOADED with bloatware, but I wouldn't expect one to work worth a F coming from a pawn shop idk. You're probably going to need it tethered to the wall unless you replace the battery on any laptop from a pawn shop for starters. My power supply on my laptop stopped working well before it had battery issues though. 

I almost ranted about that..

Yes it has to constantly be plugged in but back in 2009 i was talented with computers back then and reimaged it with zero bloat. Ran like magic.

So it already needs a new battery, and you just bought it. Be prepared to go WAY out of your way to make that thing a usable pc in 2019.. It can be done.. I would have just bought a new one. Especially if you don't know how to source parts for it well.

Its in the closet. I stopped using it cuz the charging port is broken (by me) and my toddler at the time popped a bunch of its keys off lol

I have determined by this thread that the cause is operator error.

It was all the stupid updates.

Then i had to fight to get it to download Microsoft office and OneDrive.

Its perfect now unless theres more stupid updates.

The laptop I'm posting on now I've had since 2011.....It's falling apart....LOL, sometimes the battery just falls out but I love how it hasn't died yet....Mostly because I know haow to take care of shit.

My daughter has a HP I bought in 2015 and I bought a Lenovo last year....My intent was to just transfer everything and use it but I'm really interested to see just how much time this thing has. 

Came with 8 and I've only reformatted it once.  I've definitly have never dropped it but I did slam it against an elevator door in the tote trying to catch the door before it closed

It's just old. I can play anything before 2016ish with no problems but anything new it'll just chug and overheat

I use my desktop if I get the urge to wipe the dust off my steam account but my old laptop won't even play PVZ without exploding.  Plays Undertale just fine tho.
