Help Me Fix My Laptop or Upgrade to a New Computer
Donation protected
Hi everyone,
I'm currently dealing with a significant computer issue that's impacting my job search. The laptop I received from my former school, paid for with financial aid, has had RAM problems from the start. Unfortunately, I never received any warranty information, and now the laptop’s performance is so poor that it's becoming nearly impossible to find work or take on freelance gigs.
I've consulted with a friend in IT and done extensive research, but it’s clear that the RAM needs to be replaced. The cost for the replacement is around $340, which I can't afford right now. If anyone can help with this cost, it would make a huge difference in getting me back on track.
However, I’ve also been thinking that it might be time for a more significant upgrade, given that my current laptop may continue to cause issues even after the RAM is replaced. A new computer from IBuyPower would give me the reliable performance I need for job hunting, freelancing, and future projects. The cost for this new setup is $2,500, which is far beyond my reach at the moment.
I'm reaching out to ask for your help—whether it’s covering the cost of the RAM replacement or contributing towards a new computer. Any amount is greatly appreciated, and it will help me get back on my feet. If you're willing to support me, it would mean the world to me. Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity.
