5 Answers
OH is in Spain, he decided to "tidy up" his laptop, he went on add/remove programmes, removed a lot of 2hacker type2 programmes he had installed to watch sport, then decided to remove anything he didn't know what was what. Unfortunately he has killed his laptop!! Can't even switch it on, he's devastated, has 10 days to go, is a bit wary of going into a Spanish IT shop as if anything goes wrong he has no come back once back home, any ideas folks, thanks

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I am always surprised that people who are not up to speed on computers think it is OK to just go around deleting programs "they dont think they need".
Many programs are used "under the covers" by Windows (or other programs) and while you may not think they are needed, in most cases they are.
Unless he has made a note of all the programs he has deleted this may be difficult to sort out.
Even a Spanish IT person may have trouble recovering from this.
Most, if not all, the programs he deleted are probably downloadable from the web, but he has to know what programs they are to download them.
I think he may be stuffed till he has come home.
At least he has learned a valuable lesson. If you dont know what you are doing dont muck around with your computer.
