It had been sat in a draw of junk for about 6 months, The keyboard was broken and the charger was too.
I let someone use it for a few weeks and they melted one of the keys and damaged the wire lol.
New parts arrived today :)

The laptop is nothing special its a dell E7440 touch screen 8gig mem, I didn't feel to motivated at the time to fix it as i never broke it, cost over £1000 just 2 years ago. It's like new again and I should get a few years out of it still. Don't lend your stuff out!

It feels good to have it working again. I wont miss windows 10 haha

Ubuntu? :-) feels a lot smoother than windows anyways.

For sure :) and i can get most of the software i need for free on Ubuntu. Thanks for looking <3

Well done! My old laptop is in much better shape than yours, I reckon its 5 years old at least. I dont use it much now except for mining #gridcoin and taking it to odd presentations and such.

Nice job, I had a laptop running Ubuntu at one stage must check through my boxes see where its at

I hate windows so anything is better haha thanks for looking bud
