that was a rhetorical question. the real question is how can I fix this stupid thing to not suck donkey sausage.
this is a refurb 16 gb unit with limited 90 day warranty, that ran out lickity split. I use it for traveling, writing my online journal, etc, and only store stuff when it's backed up via dropbox or something.. at first, it was fine, and then, I was hit by a plethora of problems.. I will try to list them all.. bear with me..
I have now did a total factory reset on my pc. it helped a lot, though I still got some error messages, as well as a malfunctioning trackpad that required a restart. please tell me what the hell is wrong with this thing, because I am about 2 reboots away from shooting it with my roommate's 12 gauge, drenching it in gasoline, and setting it on fire.
- until the computer somehow decided to repair the disc, this used to happen every time I log in
- the keyboard has stopped working
- the mousepad as stopped working (no the fn+f9 didn't do ****)
- the speaker has stopped working
- the screen has stopped working (screen goes blank after power up, or log in, or coming out of sleep mode)
- the wireless adapter has stopped working, and the troubleshooting tool is almost useless
- I get the "your pc has run into problems" when I try to boot, and I get the blue screen that eventually takes it into automatic repair mode, or another blue screen that prompts me to reset/refresh the pc, or something else.. it's kind of like a slot machine
- common errors I get on startup: "critical process failed" "0xc00007b" there's probably others, but I can only remember these two
- other startup errors (these are usually accompanied by a series of warning boxes with the big red X that tells me some process failed to run or something): windows would startup, but the desktop would be empty, and the app section is also empty; sometimes, the home screen is partially full.. it's like this thing has down syndrome
- sometimes, I can't open files on my desktop. It would prompt the message "can't access path" or something. I don't really remember, but it can open dropbox files just fine, even though the dropbox files are duplicated on the drive (supposedly)
- basically, it can like 30 minutes of repeated boots for the thing to not **** up.

Where did you get the refurb from? It may be down to the work that they do.
There could be memory or HDD corruption or a whole host of issues.
why is my asus transformer such a POS??
