It is at the Laptop Doctor… AKA Hewlett Packard. Before I sent it off, though, the wireless card was being detected for two days in a row, and was working… but before that it was only intermittent. So I’m not sure if they will really fix it up, if they can’t see the problem?

I hope they replace the motherboard anyway. And the keyboard, since it’s missing two keys. LOL. Anyway, this weekend will be hard, though I hope to get some good house cleaning done! Maybe some yard work, if the weather is nice!

I hope my laptop comes back soon!

Poop, Crap, Yuck… every bad word you can imagine!  I have to take my laptop into the shop, and I really don’t want to.  Bleh.  It’s going to be a super huge pain to be without my laptop for who knows how many days…

I will probably take it in this week. My vista laptop is no longer recognizing it’s own wireless network card. And I assume that to fix this, they will have to wipe the hard drive. I do have everything backed up though so hopefully it won’t be too bad to reinstall apps when I get it back. Bleh.

From what I’ve read on the web about this problem with Pavillion Notebooks, most likely the motherboard will have to be replaced. Because the wireless network card is built in to the motherboard.  Sometimes the laptop will detect the card, but mostly it won’t.  So from home I’m plugged in by cable. From work I won’t have my laptop at all, I’ll just have my work PC.  Hrmph.

Well, I hope to get the laptop back quickly. I’m going to call HP first and see if they can walk me through a problem. Wish me bunches of luck.
