Either way, homework aside, I need a new PC and I see one for $500 to $600, maybe $400.
I’ll post what I said elsewhere:
I need:
At least $400, maybe more, for a good PC so I can do my homework.
…I lost mine. I am typing from my tablet as we speak. And it sucks. Genuinely sucks. Ugh.

P.S. But yeah, like I said, I really fucked up my PC, err, accidentally. It’s… Yeah. I 2as planning to switch to a new one for about $600 and I may be able to scrounge up what I have to get on3 quickly, but I’m… going to need some help. Thank you all kindly. 🙏🙏
Call me crazy, but universities have libraries and labs with computers that any student can use to work on assignments.
I don’t have ready access to one.
If you really need a computer and don’t have the budget for one that costs $600, then don’t get a $600 computer. There are plenty of old office PCs on eBay that you can get for less than $100 and they should be fine for only homework. Just search for “Office PC” on there. This is not the place to be asking for money, but I hope you find something that fits your budget and that university goes well.
OP might need a beefier rig depending on the programme they’re in. Not saying they couldn’t go for something cheaper, but there might be a reason for the pricetag.
Yeah
Soros foot soldier and others ask for money, tbh.
What happened to the PC?
I don’t exactly know… It requires a recovery key and I lost that a long time ago. When I got into my Microsoft account, it didn’t have it…

I see…
I don’t have my BitLocker key, is the problem, even after checking my Microsoft account.
It sucks…
It’s at the Best Buy GeekSquad right now…

BitLocker recovery key? Windows 11 now apparently does that by default. That’s just Windows’ encryption. So, if that’s the case, while you lost the data on that PC it is just a software issue.
So, do you see something like this?:
Yeah! That’s what I see.
Great. You don’t need a new PC, you can just re-install Windows (or try a different OS, but you can do that later even in VM if you are interested).
Do you have an installation drive for Windows? If not, do you have access to another PC? There’s also some Android apps that can create installation drives, but I haven’t tried any of those.
Uhhuh… Okay, my brother has a laptop. So does my younger brother (Desktop). What Android apps can do this as well? I may have another installation drive.
I think I may have tried EtchDroid in the past based on screenshots, but it seems it’s still not suitable for Windows:
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/eu.depau.etchdroid/I also found this on Play store with people reporting success with Windows in the reviews. I haven’t seen this one before, but it seems it requires “coins”. It’s possible to get those by watching ads it seems.:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mixapplications.rufus&hl=enAnyway, have you followed this Microsoft’s guide to make sure you really don’t have access to the recovery key on https://account.microsoft.com/devices/recoverykey as noted there?
Just in case, it would be simpler.I will check the last link. Thank you.
This is what I got.
Tell me that someone has mentioned resting this system with a Linux distro? Wouldn’t that resolve the problem?
I tried to install a Linux distro but I was unsuccessful. That’s how I ended up in this problem.
Go on that other website and look for the subreddits where people are begging for money for food, and post there. Also, just tell your teacher and they should be able to provide an extension and maybe help you in finding a way to get it done.
I already did.
I’m not begging either.
