After the LCD and motherboard were replaced, the laptop it once again operating as it should! After it got back on its feet I installed Ubuntu 8.10 64-bit and will hopefully get to play around with this for a while before I experience any further mechanical issues.

Woot, welcome back Matt.

You'll enjoy Linux, best part break it it's 2-3 minutes to fix no matter how bad you accidently, the OS.

I LOVE how clean Ubuntu is, the OS is not cluttered or loaded with unnecessary crap. My computer seems to be slightly faster than it was on Vista 64bit, and a whole lot nicer to use.

Your computer won't turn off?

Remove power cord?
