    Wife went nuts the other night and tossed my G51VX across the kitchen.

    It's got a small crack in the case right up front under the track pad.
    It's also tweaked/bent some so it nolonger sits flat on a surface.

    But other then that I ran prime95 on it overnight with no issues.

    you need to do daily backups from now on, your hdd is prone to fail in the next months, if not sooner...

    sorry to hear that anyway :(
