Notebook explosion

1 Jun 2008

Today, my notebook exploded and resulted in malfunction of all the USB ports. I cannot use my 手寫板 from now on...... really bad!

Everythings came sudden......

My USB ports of my notebook used to have some unknown problems, always cannot detect the devices. I needed to connect and disconnect few times in order to get the device detected. Since it could still be used in this way, I never sent my notebook for maintenance before.

However, when I connected my mobile phone with the USB cord today, the screen turn black suddenly. At the same time, it gave a sound of explosion and also a bad smell of burns. I shocked for a while and then disconnected the power at once.And finaly moved the notebook from the desk to a safety place. I really afraid it will explode at that instant.

After the dinner, it seems nothing happened and I re-connected all the things again. Evrythings OK but all the USB ports were malfunction.

Can anybody tells what happen to my notebook?

May be I need to buy a new one. This notebook had already worked with me for 3 years......
