STICKY.

>>52428955
less money in your pocket and a wiped hard drive

>>52428955
should have gone to a local computer repair store desu
>>
>>52429003
I would've done that but last time I went to one I pissed him off and told him to kill himself. I think I burned that bridge

>>52428989
oh, also
a reduced sense of self worth

>>52428955
70$ for an estimate
80$ additional labor
100$ warranty you will never use
all for them to re load your OS and put drivers on.

Used to work in geek squad. Here's a flowchart of how shit works.
>software issue
just reinstall windows lol
>hardware issue on computer with geek squad warranty
say the computer is a total loss and give them a bit of money to go buy a new one
>hardware issue on computer without warranty
send it to kansas to let those other fucks deal with it lol
>>
>>52428955
first off they looked at your files

yes they did

doesnt matter if there's anything, it's the principal... and the hour they charged

next the likely charged too much to do a mediocre to less then satisfactory job.

what else are you wondering OP?
>>
>>52428955
a backup copy of all your porn.
>>
>>52429090

I can vouch for this. I don't work at Best Buy but I'm a part-time sales associate at Microcenter w/ occasional tech drop-offs for customers.

All they do is laugh at people's porn folders.
>>
>>52429014

Depends on how you see it. You could be a rich guy who ain't got time fo dat, so you recur to the poor middle class scum to repair your shit

Autist confirmed

>>52428955
Leaked photos of your mom and sister

>>52429044
Damn your precinct clearly is shit and sets a bad standard.

I currently work at geeksquad. It pays the bills...

But fuck man we hardly reinstall windows. That's last resort shit. We don't look at your data... I couldn't care less what porn you look at or what photos you have taken.

Ship t9 Kentucky not Kansas if they have accidental protection / warranty through mfg. If not we recommended local mom and pop shops as an alternative and 2nd opinion.

Your team sounds miserable to work for.


Inb4 bestbuy / geeksquad shill

Also... What was wrong with it? Jc

>>52429076
>looked at files
If anyone working at geek squad got caught snooping around they would get fired. All geek squad will do is tell you "either back up your data or we may wipe it" thats because they WANT to just reinstall windows, its faster and thats the biggest metric. They use automated tools to do the job, they dont have any interest in that garbage clop on your hdd.
>geek squad fag
admitted
>>
>>52429634
Son, the first time I had my laptop fixed by the Geek Squad, they openly admitted to having looked at my files.

"Yeah, he's got the motherload!" - Geek Squad employee, in reference to my collection of weebshit vidya

They also presumably saw all of my fetish porn.

> wat to expect

rape

>>52429044
Geek nigger here. I'm with >>52429332. In our precinct, reinstalling Windows is a last resort option, and we almost always contact you if we come to the conclusion that it is the best thing to do, so that you are aware of what we are going to do and the implications of such an action.

It's unfortunate that not all precincts follow a code of ethics, but do not speak for all of us just because your precinct gives zero fucks.

god that pic in the OP hits me right in the fucking feelers. Does anyone else miss the '99/2000 software?

>windows ME (it was shit but still nostalgic)
>AIM
>napster
>zone.com
>bonzi buddy
