Almost all my short stories, feature stories and other fruits of my wild imaginations. Also important photos of me and my family and friends. But the small laptop which is Samsung have been dead for more than a year because the battery is dead cell and the charger cord is damage. Actually even the keyboard is also not working anymore. Half of my life was in that mini machine. Not until I thought of buying charger cord on online shop. To make the story short, the cord arrived. I immediately tried it. My goodness, the netbook reborn. It is alive again. What did I do? I get my USB and copy and transfer all the necessary documents. My goodness, that was amazing.

Wow! That's great!!! I also brought my old laptop (10 years old) for repairs at the service center last May... They changed the charger too and changed to Windows 7 from my Vista.. But the keyboard was malfunctioning so I thought of buying a keyboard online. When the keyboard arrived, I tried it again and then the charger broke down. I think it got too hot.. I texted the service center and asked if it has a warranty but they no longer replied. I just bought another charger and now it is working again. The built in keyboard is also working again so I just kept the keyboard I bought online.

@ilocosboy yes it is cheaper than having your built in keyboard replaced. Mine costs 2500 to replace whoa... I don't have budget for that yet. hihihi So I bought a 100+ mini keyboard.

That netbook is a lucky charm to me because I have written lots of stories and feature. Its more than a decade in my possession, if I'm not mistaken.

@ilocosboy yes, it's harder because these are old models and not popular brands

It is harder with phones, maybe the technicians in your place can do it.

Maybe I can't use the netbook because the keyboard is not working but retrieving the files is really great.

That was a good move on your to take all your files out of that machine already and back it to your USB or ext HDD so in case that the laptop will conk out of you, your important files are all in your USB.
