Hi. We need a hospice for laptops. Somewhere they can go and get cleaned out and transferred before they pass over to laptop heaven.
That's sad losing personal stuff you must have been gutted.
I bought an external harddrive, i transfer most of my things on to there but i know this laptop, i can find my way around easily. I really don't want to start again especially with Windows 10 as didn't like it so restored windows 8..
