Id look on eBay as you would get one for alot cheaper..
It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

If you put your old lead in the fridge you should be fine.

Bit of an emergency here lads. Is there anywhere in Dublin open on a Sunday that can repair a laptop?  Or anyone that can fix it on a Sunday? I work from home so need to have it working for Monday. 

Was on the internet and it crashed and it's stuck in this BIOS/Operating menu. 
Wings? They're only the band The Beatles could have been.

Electronic shop in Omni opens on a Sunday.

Unplug it, take battery out, and hold your finger on the power button for 30 seconds. That often does the trick!

Did all that but no joy. Flatmate who's more of a tech head than me couldn't get it working.

Have you tried loading your computer on safe mode? Google for answers?

I can guarantee you Dave from the electronic shop will also be googling how to fix the problem.

Fridge is little to no use for BIOS. Has to be the freezer.

I can't even get past the 1980s operating screens to do that.

How old is it?

If it’s riddled maybe just but a new wan ... not that expensive and you will obviously need it going forward.
