What to do with a defective laptop ?? [RESOLVED]
Hi,
I have a laptop that is fairly old, it is pentium 3, 256 MB rAM and can run XP on it.
While formating the drive, I found that the CD drive would not work, I got the drive replaced but even then the CD drive would not work. The service man told me that there was something else wrong with the Laptop.
Since the laptop was partially installed with WInXP , I tried to boot using a USB drive, but this did not work either.
Kindly suggest what I should do with the laptop. ?? IS there any way I can use a LAN network for booting. because the laptop is a good one and I do not want to discard it...
thanks
