Tired of Your Old Laptop Problems ================================= I want to become a technician and make myself great again. I know it is going to take some time. Last week I handed my father a hard disk removed from his old Acer laptop after I had fixed some permission issues there. Unfortunately, he has decided to format the system partition, so recovering the system can be challenging. He has a newer laptop, but the laptop does not have a VGA port and he wants to connect it to an external monitor which only has an HDMI input socket. So, he wants to use his ancient laptoop. And there are more hardware issues, and to fix them I guess I will have to order parts from Ali Express. And there is also that issue with a freezing system I do not care to explain; just check performance. I think that if you have a new computer you better use it. An old one is good if you want to challenge yourself repairing a device. I really want to live off grid if someone wants to come up with more and more old laptop issues.
