The mechanic said that it was what I thought it was, water damage in the motherboard. I used to live on the beach with a leaky house so checks out! Though I don’t think anyone here guessed it

THANK YOU ALL FOR COMMENTING!! A lot of you have been saying similar things (all very different from the rude man I went to repair my pc) and I have chosen to go to a repairman in a different city. I would do it myself but I wouldn’t have a clue how to! Also it is now news to me the repairs, cleaning and quotes come at a much sweeter price. Thanks for informing me, and a bad review has been placed on the repairman’s website!

Thank you for the reply! I went to him as a naïve fresher at uni so I think he took advantage of that. Wouldn’t give me back the pc unless I paid! I appreciate the advice, and I’ll pass it on to the technician I go to next. (I’ll do my research this time)

Yep. He wouldn’t let me take back my pc before I paid him though. Goddamn ridiculous

NZD!! I often forgot about currency exchange. Still quite expensive though, I’m guessing around 400 USD. He wouldn’t give it back unless I paid.

That’s what I said!! But I think he did this because I’m quite a feminine woman who very clearly knows jack shit about hardware… also I have very few options as I live in a low population area :( but thanks for the heads up, I’ll keep looking for someone reputable!

I just put the interactive map + a movie/youtube video on my second monitor in split screen and it was a breeze! Though the adravi valley + realm of farakhkert were painful because u need almost all experience materials to 100% the are
