Can anyone suggest where in Wallasey I can get my daughters laptop fixed

I found a website and they do home visits to fix computers and laptops and they are coming today.

Lol, nice big bill for you then!

How about telling us what's wrong with it?
Maybe we can help?

When you switch it on nothing happens, I think it is called the black screen of death. I cannot get it to load in safe mode or do anything

Do you mean it attempts to load into Windows, or do you mean it simply does not power on at all?

TRIES TO LOAD VISTA BUT THEN JUST A BLACK SCREEN

Okay, if it turns on, shows the POST screen, then goes black 9 times out of 10 it's the hard drive.

As it tries to load from the hard drive, and fails, the screen goes black, to check this just take out the hard drive and try again, if you get the POST screen and then an "operating system not found, press any key", or similar, and this is further than you got before, hard drive is probably goosed and needs replacing.

Thanks for the advice

should try reinstalling the OS

The laptop needs a new hard drive and it is costing £116.00, I found a website called Proper Geeks and they came to the house and took it away to be fixed.
Thanks to everyone for all the advice.

How Much !!!!

That's a (little) bit expensive, a new hard drive, even a decent (500GB) SATA should be about £50, and a full install including all the drivers, updates and anti-virus should cost (well, we charge) £35, and normally it's same day.

Oh well, at least it'll be done
