Main problem: There is a problem with the motherboard itself. Needs replacing

The USB 3.0 port is not reading any devices. Possibly a hardware issue

The earphone port is not working correctly. Have to wriggle the jack around for a bit to get the sound working correctly

I dropped it into PC World on December 14, and I have not heard back from them yet. Anyone know how long would it take to repair these three problems?

Thanks.

PC World sometimes have to send stuff away for it to be fixed, they seem to take forever. Probably best to give them a ring and see whats going on.
