QUOTE(banks @ Apr 23 2010, 11:06 PM) Hmm.....can't really say for sure. I've been using for around 5 months now after sending for warranty. So far there's no problem. Around 2~3 days. Added on April 23, 2010, 11:33 pmIce Ice Baby~ with Tuniq TX2  Result is 15 minutes of gaming in Guild Wars. Without TX-2 it will surely climb up to 90 degrees! 90 vs 78...its quite a big gap temperature

@leyley : no aircond, just me and fan. The GPU (HD3200) overclocked @ 669MHz.
@iRonTech : haha, yes it is! If I played longer(1 hour++) it might climb up to 100 too!

if you update to new bios make sure after flash. go into bios menu and load optimized default setting. then save and exit. it help to prevent freezing issue...

My cq40 got some overheating issue...i put it into balance mode and the idle temp in aircond is 60++,power saver 50 degree idle...sometimes even in power saver,running it for around 1hour+ at 50degree also will cause restart....any way to solve this issue? I get fed up with the restart problem since last december and I switched to desktop that time. My warranty expired in March but I had no time to go for warranty. I asked the shop, they say need send to HP main HQ in Damansara =.= I dont have my own transport

50-60 ++ dc is normal for this model, if with flash, easily hit up 7x ++ dc.
the restart matter, what error show from the event viewer ?

Need help on this.. I received Blink (code 4) which means i have issues with my Graphic Controller. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/documen...product=4110576 Now does this mean my GC is broken or is it the monitor? If its the GC can i upgrade the GC on this laptop or is the card onboard? Ive seen some vids on youtube on changing the LCD, any idea where i can get one of those LCD?
