Re: “Blast From The Past” event (week 3) - “Repair or Replace the computer” problem

So, I was working on Blast From the Past and needed to activate the time component. It failed and the next quest was to fix the broken computer. It wasn't broken. I checked all the computers in the house. Tried calling a repair service. Nothing worked.

So I exited without saving planning to redo all the quest activities again since I hadn't saved anything. When I come back to the game the time component was missing. I tried activating again on the computer. Again it doesn't break. 

I feel very frustrated. Any help?
