    They will cover it if it is poor workmanship or a broken part. They are not going to cover it for misuse or abuse. Or if you broke unless of course you got the accidental coverage.

    If it borke because just of use or something that can justify it was some defect it will, but if it broke because of droping or something hitting it only if you ahve complete care will cover it.

    Limited warranty will cover it if it simply isn't working but it is intact. If it's cracked or the laptop shows signs of physical damage then this will be covered only by CompleteCare warranty.
