I know how you feel, SGG...
Geek Squad sucks. I have to get my whole motherboard of my computer fixed, and it still didn't work. Worst part? Geek Squad put a bunch of drivers and stuff on the computer so that it all could work, and then they held it for three extra days to "make sure the basic systems still worked". Then we got it back...
...and the sound didn't work.
That's how they get your money: fixing one thing, but then setting your computer up so that you have to come back for more. The best hope is to annoy their souls to eternity until they return it good as new.
One problem for you, SGG, is that you have a laptop. When I got my motherboard fixed, they had to reinstall Windows XP onto it, so we had to take the hard drive out so that none of our data would be lost. You have a laptop... so I can see why everything was at risk of getting lost...
