For the above pic, notice that most of the taskbar icons are blank (missing AVG, grapics controller, etc. Even the wireless connectivity bars are missing, just an empty space between my speaker icon and the HP wireless assistant icon.)

Eh... this issue i dnt think related to Hp. It's software problem. I believe u can customize the icons setting. Why dnt u update the window or reformat ? Hv new BIOS to update ?? Some time i also facing such issue too but it's rare.

For HP Support Assistant, I think u should try reinstall the software or dnt need to use it. For me it's just wasting memory and space  tongue.gif

By the way, hv u using any software which will roll back ur window into previous one ? Such as  Returnil Virtual System, if do, pls un-click the function and update ur window and turn it back when everything has done.

If not mistaken RM3290 without beats headphones one~ It's hard to exchange to a new one for software problem. If it's still there, i think u can send it to HP service center at pinang, Their service good unlike Mlc service ^.^

Dackson, i don't think it's just software problem it only happens when I reconnect my power supply without the battery in the laptop. Please refer to one of my previous posts to see the CMOS error screen that pops up when reconnecting power supply. (I only use the battery when I go out and dont leave it in the laptop all the time fearing I might wear it out fast, and I always disconnect my power supply when I turn off my lappy for fear of lightnings)

Anyway, after I reconnect the power supply and boots it up with the CMOS error and everything and then restart the laptop without removing the power cable, the laptop boots up normally and the taskbar would turn out the way it should:

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


So what do you think about that?

And no, I am not using any software to rollback windows or the system, at least none that i'm aware of. hmm.gif

Even on a HDD, my boot time is about 40 secs. More than fast enough for average use. SSD's also have limited number of writes because they never use SLC chips.

The best deal is still the Seagate Momentus XT. I'm getting one very soon. 500GB HDD + 4GB SSD. Best of both worlds.

According to C-ZONE's latest pricelist, it costs RM419. It is slightly more expensive than the cheapest SSD, but those are just like 60GB, pure useless, even windows 7 is nearly 20GB.

Plus, all the SSD's dont use SLC chips so the number of writes is about 10 000, whereas the Momentus XT uses SLC, 10x the number of writes supported

1. Put the HP Coolsense to coolest mode.
2. Change closing the lid to do nothing and install antivirus.
3. Do the steps to make your boot time faster.
4. Install all the games and have fun!!!
