Since the fire all I have functioning is a Surface Pro 5 I got refurbed from Walmart a year ago.
The most recent “update” bricked it for 4 hours of hysterical attempts to get it on again.
I finally did but it was terrifying.
Not booting and when it tried it looked like vid card was failing.
Way outta warranty and I’ve not even paid it off yet.
It’s all I have except for and old iPad and my phone and I have to keep hunting for lost items to submit to the public adjuster and print out.
Any idea how I can stop this?
I got a small thumb drive to download and reinstall the OS if necessary but it’s just more stress to the pile I have already.
My Alienware laptop boots to diagnostics with video card and cpu fan impending hardware failures and I can’t afford to replace that, not knowing what my future will be or whether the house will ever be fixed or not, let alone when.
Any advice or help would be wildly welcomed.
