There is 2 Service Centers for HP,ACER, FUJITSU-Simens, Compaq in Doha that i usually go to.

1. REDINGTON QATAR at C-Ring Road (Within the HASSANESCO Compound). 455-1608 and 455-1609

2. EMITAC that you meantioned also.

If its the motherboards problem, and youve been using that for 1 year and 6 months now, i will not be suprised if its kharban now. :D

Recently, my boss's Acer Laptop had the same problem with "No Display" and i brought it to Redington Qatar. They diagnosed it as motherboard problem. bec. the VGA card is built-in on the motherboard and can't be replaced just that part and has to replace the whole main board. it cost me nothing bec. it's still under warranty but i waited for 3-4 f***** weeks to get it. LMAO! :D

Note: bec. all laptop or desktop parts for HP / ACER are all coming from Dubai or Europe. Crap isnt it? lol
