Pinky is home and what a relief to have her back in full working condition! Yes, I can laugh about my dramatic post now but at the time of writing, I felt hopeless; convinced I'd never get her back in one piece. Anyway, that's all history for she is fine and if I had known sooner it was due to a mere faulty device, I would have fixed her up sooner. 
The thing is I had my back-up PC as alternative, which means I was not totally shunned from the internet. So I took my own sweet time in sending Pinky to Digital Mall in PJ where we headed straight for the Dell store. Within minutes, it was ascertained that Pinky's adapter was the culprit which caused her refusal to switch on.
I was certain her problem had nothing to do with the adapter for two simple reasons. Firstly, I just had my first adapter replaced with a brand new one from Dell about two months back so I did not expect this second one to be faulty so soon. Second reason was the adapter light showed perfectly when I switched it on so I totally ruled out my adapter as the reason. I was convinced it was either the battery or MoBo, which would have definitely cost me a bomb!
Thank goodness the adapter for my Inspiron 1420 was in stock so I quickly purchased one and brought Pinky home. The damage? RM170 only.
So I'm back to being happy and a little pampering is in order to compensate for the stress I endured thinking the worst for poor Pinky. Happy Sunday everybody, I'm off to the hair salon now!

Glad to hear your beloved Pinky is back... it is ridiculous but I've gotten used to the fact that I need two almost identical HP notebooks since one of them is always "in the shop."

Thanks for the linky love and linky fix... I can't help but notice you're up to 5 pages of comments already... when I started to notice you and LJ constantly tweeting, I thought maybe your commenting would be less... not true! Genie Princess finds the time to do it all!
Welcome home Pinky. : )
Memang kalau tak dak lappy resah, rindu, rimas, gelisah macam bercinta mandi tak basah, makan tak lalu. Ahahaha.. ehhh kalau lappy dan internet tak dak, dua kombinasi yang "ALERT!! ALERT!!" :-D :-D
Pinky's back!! yeay..heheh.. i know how it is to NOT have your loved gadget with you GP.. and I'm so glad you got your Pinky back the same way I got MF back!! yeay for us!!!
I just woke up .. i slept at 2am after a 24hours stint..heheh.. so now I feel like a new woman.. lol!!
Speaking of Dell, i still have my 5-year old Dell with me, which works as "Shhooohh2x!! pergi check internet kat sana orang nak main game kat sini" lappy. LoL.
I love Dell, HP, Benq and Asus. May be, i ll try ASUS for my future lappy. : )
Though i love the idea of netbook, but i dont think netbook is for me. 14" is the Goldilocks for me, not to big, not to small, AHA :-D
HEy Marzie!! welcome home pinky!! :) Glad she's back!! :) I don't know what I'd do if my GG is out of order.. i don't even want to THINK about it. I got GG back in 2007 and so far so good.. It's not like i have a backup PC or anything.. I just have my external harddrive (which i just bought last week.. - FINALLY)..
Anyways, hope this adapter wouldn't give you any more problems, marzie!
:* :* :* :*
yay!! Pinky is Back! :* :* :*
no need to use yr slowpoke PC anymore! :-D :-D
8-) 8-) Tenkiu Rizal, lega rasanya!
Yeah!! Kalau dua2 takde... sure mati akal! Lucky for me got back up PC, but I had to restore all my programs, pas tu masukkan files.. tu yg leceh tu.. so yup I am happy to get back my laptop, thank god! O:-) O:-) O:-)
Thanks LJ, pestaim Pinky buat hal, kalau tak she's steady all the time... even when I open many tabs sekaligus to drop EC hehehehe! =-O =-O =-X =-X ;) ;) ;)
I like both laptop and PC actually Rizal... cause laptop convenient to move around but PC feels more steady for me. However, my lappy is obviously more powerful than my PC cause lappy baru beli while PC dah lama.. so lappy is my main use now... I haven tried anything Asus before, best ye? *DONT_KNOW* *DONT_KNOW* *DONT_KNOW*
I'm on normal ppl mode today too LJ! Nak cuba jadi normal ppl all week! =-X =-X =-X
LOL Angel!! Hey tak keluar dating with BF ke last weekend? *DONT_KNOW* *DONT_KNOW* ;) ;) ;)

LOL poor thing my slowpoke PC tak laku anymore, but now I just keep it inside my office again... previously it was outside but since it's all set up here, might as well keep it together with Pinky....just in case mah... *DONT_KNOW* *DONT_KNOW* *DONT_KNOW*
