Good evening
Need advice on two issues
1) My 4 years laptop suddenly cannot boot,when I went to bed last nite i tried updating it but it was slow,according to windows update 8% of 853 MBs I then pressed power button so it can shutdown in the morning,I switched it on ad it said loading files,showing a grey bat at the bottom of the screen,but it took long,something like 5 mins and I pressed power button then it shutdown,I then pressed power button again to start again,the lights as usual came but in a split second the ram and network light went out but power button and charger light remained I waited but it just remained in that stage,no sound nothing just quite,I pressed the power button again to reboot and when the lights came they did the same,in a blink of an eye the RAM and network light went out and power button and charger light remained,I then start googling for possible solutions until I came across this site,I need advice,how do i fix this? This evening I tried again it came back and said last time something went wrong it might be software or hardware problem and it gave me two options,start normally and attempt to fix problem and(recommended) ignorant me chose start normally then it attempted to start then went blank,this time network light remained but again it took long and then network light went out and power button and charger light remained I waited and waited it didn't boot,what could be the problem?
It uses DDR 3 RAM,I opened it and exchanged its position to see if maybe it can work but it didn't,I can't afford to take it for repairs im a student and broke,is there any DIY advice you have for me? I really need it,I rely on it for my studies.
2) I went to borrow my brothers unused laptop,it came with windows vista home basic he then tried to upgrade it to windows 7 professional now it says the copy of windows is not genuine and when I go online Microsoft keeps warning me about the dangers of using counterfeit software's,I went to school for assistant they gave me a disc of windows 7 OS but my the laptop can't read it,tried copying its contents to usb using my friends laptop it stop copying at 75% because some files are missing,now im confused,in this case are there any organisations that helps students with software's? I can't afford to buy operating system,maybe there is a company helping students with this or a good samaritan out there,please connect me with anyone who can help,im not talking piracy I hope i have not infringed mybroadband forum code of conduct.
Please help with advises
