Aually my laptop has been stolen 2 days ago from my home during my absence. I've lodged the report to the police and also have informed the HP by providing the serial number.
At this stage I'm wondering if there is any other way to get the laptop back because otherwise I'll lose all of my previous data and I'm also scared as if someone misuse it if found. Although my laptop had windows 8 and locked with my Microsoft password which I'm sure he cannot get it but he can easily install a new windows and may remove all the data from C: drive but the thing to worry about is all my personal record is in D: and it is very risky if someone found it.
Anyways, I heard if the case is high profile the police can help to locate a laptop but on the other hand for a normal case they don't bother. And they can track the laptop through BIOS chip number.
Is there anyone can help me in this regards?
