If nothing else, there's small claims court. The seller did say it worked, so you should have an implied warranty. The fact he gave away your computer is irrelevant. The fact it was purchased at a flea market is irrelevant. This is not someone whose only business is selling stuff, this is someone who claims to have a business buying, selling and repairing computers. Hope you get a satisfactory resolution.
