    Well, my computer sometimes freezes on starting windows... too, but when i just reboot it works perfectly and you should just go to the shop where you bought it and say "REPAIR THIS BITCHES!"

    well pretty much if anything was to go wrong, if it was shipped to you, would be the HDD, if an HDD gets thrown around too much then it can mess up, thats why most laptops are trying to go for SSDs now that the prices are going down

    you can talk to their manager all you want, they'll tell you it's not their fault
    they buy hardware from a producer, they can't predict if the hardware is faulty, all they can do is boot it, if it works ship it

    After just two weeks it's failing on you? What the fuck did you do to make it do that? Just tell your father what happened and how it happened, he mightn't be happy but he'll drive you down to the shop since you have a one year warranty.

    Solid State Drive. It's a hard drive made of flash memory.

    @OP: If there was anything wrong with the laptop, it would only appear in the first 1-2 weeks. It's an EXTREMELY common issue, just contact the store and they should replace it since it's within 21-20 days.
