Does Anyone Own A Lenovo Computer?
November 4th, 2009I’m a graduating senior and I’m searching for a new laptop. Now I want a Sony Vaio or HP Pavilion. (Well really I want a MacBook, but that’s another story.) My uncle, who works for a computer company is offering me a deal on a 15.4 Lenovo computer. I’m sure what its official name is but these are some of its specs:
Levono 15.4-Inch Laptop with touch sensisitve surface and built in subwoofer.
> CPU Type – Intel Core 2 Duo T5900
> Screen – 15.4″ WXGA
> Memory Size – 4GB
> Hard Disk – 250GB
> Optical Drive – Dual Layer DVD Burner
> Graphics Card – Intel GMA 4500MHD
> Video Memory – shared memory
> Communication – Modem, LAN and WLAN
> Card slot – 1 x Express Card
> Battery – 6-cell lithium ion, Life 4 hours
> Dimensions – 14.20″ x 10.30″ x 1.10-1.40″
> Weight – 6.4 lbs.
He’s offering me and my mom a cheap deal, understanding that money is tight for us. But I really want a Sony, HP or even a Mac. Should I accept the Lenovo? Does anyone know about them?

Getting Data Off 2 1/2 Ata Hard Drive…?
November 3rd, 2009I spilled wine into my HP Pavilion ZD8000 Laptop. Two drop’s got through the keyboard and landed on the motherboard. It seems one drop hit the motherboards “G” spot and it fried the motherboard. After I quit cursing and kicking and bitching, smoke started to poor out of the laptop at an alarming rate. (This was after I unplugged it and removed the battery so it must have dischared a capasitor or something..?) Anyways, i bought a 2 1/2 inch USB hard drive enclosure and my hard drive data is still good. I can acess everything except 1 folder. (The folder i need of course) The problem is that when i go to “E:\Documents and Settings\My User Folder\” I get a message box that is titled “MSOChache” and says “E:\Documents and Settings\My User Folder\ is not accessable. Access is denied”. So the data in my users folder is not accessable and the most important documents are within my user’s folder. How can i get into this folder and get my data? Any ideas?
