wait! is your computer useable at all - can you back your important files up? if so you could just format the hard-drive and start afresh - it might save you 250 bucks.
That's truly one of those "good and bad" scenarios.
And I agree with Kivster. If it's a software issue, I'm a big fan of back-up and do-over. If it's a hardware issue, it depends upon your experience. Many things are also DIY-able.
Soon it will be cheeper to just buy a new one.. I shake my head to think that I paid $4000. for a laptop six years ago.. I dont' think you can spend that much on a computer anymore...
