A laptop we own was accidentally stepped on, and we don't think our warranty covers accidents...?

The best way to go is to tell them the truth, if they find out that you were lying you will end up in more trouble. Tell them the truth, if they refuse to repair it offer to pay or get it repaired elsewhere.

If it came with  the package of your computer, you can try contacting the company you purchased it and see if they offer replacements.

Boy, I am glad you said it was an accident. That is awful. I use our computer for our taxes, bill paying everything. If my wife erased it I wouldn't be happy but I would still love her.\n\nI have to go - I need to backup some files.

You may have accidentally drop your PC or there may be some foreign object in your hard drive.

It depends. I've spilled things in a laptop before and had no negative consequences other than a few of the keys no longer working. My recommendation would be, if you spilled it on the edge of the keyboard, tilt your laptop towards that side to help drain the water out. The keyboard can be replaced, if necessary and if you know what you're doing.

What a really bad accident.  Try to hook up a USB or PS/2 keyboard and see if the keys respond to that.  You might need to go to a technician, but I don't even know if they can help.  In the worst case, you probably need to get any important data from the laptop's hard drive by removing it and hooking it up to a desktop.  Then reinstall everything from the BIOS on up.\n\nLesson to remember: always check how much battery power you have, or at least plug it into the wall if you're doing any installations or critical system tasks.

Check the battery..Go buy a new Battery.. See if it boots up then..If it dosent then it looks like a computer doctor is needed.Could be costly. If its an old one. it might pay you go buy a newer one.

Get a new one.\n\n\nTrust is a fragile thing and onec it is lost or broken is almost impossible to repair.

Logically, your employer has nothing to do with somebody losing a laptop. If the laptop belonged to the company, for sure the employer is not "letting" others lose his property, unfortunately it happens. \nIf somebody else lost the laptop that the company gave you to work with - then it's your loss.\nIf somebody else lost their laptop and it had your information on it - if you want to sue, then sue the person who lost the laptop.

It's not really fixed, its injured and has made a partial recovery. Like you have already decided it's time to replace the drive.

It would have helped if you had put down the make of the computer. They open up in various ways. If it is new, why not go to the shop where you bought the parts and ask them, or at least give them a call.

If you bought it with a credit card, your card may offer an extended warranty on the laptop. try contacting them to see but I would also call the better business bureau and file a complaint, they will do their best to get the issue resolved, if it is a reputable company

I think if you read your service agreement carefully you will see a provision in there that Best Buy will not be liable for consequential damages.  That means that their liability is limited to the value of the products that you originally purchased from them.  Once they get there products functioning in a reasonable manner as the products did the day you bought them they have fulfilled their obligation under the service agreement.\n\nBeyond that they could claim that you where negligence in not backing up such valuable information. And that you contributed more to the damage than they did.\n\nMy opinion is that even some type of public smear against Best Buy as suggested above would find little sympathy for someone who didn't back up his valuable information.\n\nSorry man.  I know this isn't what you want to hear but this is how I see it.

How long have you had it? I work in an electronics dept. at a retail store, and the only way we allow returns on computers or their hardware is with a receipt, because our in-store warranty is only 15 days, after that you need to contact the manufacturer, who gives you a 1 year warranty. I hope you have one, lol, because you can't return computers, or their hardware without one...and store managers won't take your word for something that expensive, they will enter the serial number into the S.M.A.R.T. system and find out how long ago you bought it, or if it even came from their store. You might have to just buy another floppy drive...they don't cost that much.   Good luck.

Paint? Decals? haha, I would suggest a new keyboard... but laptop keyboards (While not impossible) are rather difficult to replace.  And doing so on your own most certainly voids the warranty.  How bout permanant marker?  The silver ones, or gold ones.  There's an idea.\n-Duo

There are several places you can ship your laptop to and have them repair the screen. But it usually is not inexpensive. Depending on the age of the laptop it might be time to buy a new one and sell the other for parts on eBay.

Check to make sure you dont have any recalls on that particular thing. Maybe you didn't put it in correctly. ummm maybe your laptop is not responding correctly to it because the unknown error is not effecting it. Just follow the error and keep doing what ya doing. have a nice day
