Linux is a free source OS. The function is something different with MS but can handling easily soon. You can download many other free source also from the website. MS jus ttalking about money, all software need $$ but LInux not smile.gif

About the Ram, I suggest u buy from HP service centre and use the original HP ram.

Benefit of Vista, more aero(3D),high protection from security,transfer ur Thumdrive memory to become system memory(cooL).

v3166 can play light games or online games only. IF NFS carbon just can play in low setting. This is the bad thing happened on v3000 series. sad.gif

hello everyone..
i'm not a compaq user yet..
but i currently thinking to buy a labtop..
i have two labtop in my mind now..
one is benq s73 and this compaq..
which one would u recommand me?..
i wondering why many user here chose 3133 which is freedos..
but not 3166?..
it's there any reason?...
and upgrading to 2gb ram.. cost how much?..
thank you ^^

If you got budget then take Benq s73G cos dedicated Ati x1600 gc.LoL..cool in gaming with fast respon time LCD/1gig ram/C2D but ugly design la.hehe..

v3133 got Linux that was a free dos. If you planing take to show off the starbuck or wat better buy a original Windows Xp.v3166 come with WMC OS.

There are many versions (distros) of linux. You can choose according to your need. You can see the screen shots of available Linux distros form the below link.

http://shots.osdir.com/

Now, i suggest you try Ubuntu 6.10 or Fedora core 6 for 3133. Yes there are some issues but can fix those with online helps.

All the best choosing ur lappy ! thumbup.gif

but i got two simple question..

1.how you play games in Linux OS?? i saw other thread.. it show that need a software to open it??

2.Linux OS take few ram... right? so if i have a celeron with less than 256ram.. run in window XP home very slow and always hang.. if i change it to Linux OS, will it improve the speed?? and without hanging??

To: syiafuku
V3133AU cost rm2999.. add to 2gb ram will cost 3.6k?? what ram brand and model u upgrade?.. izzit the HP one?? other than upgrade ram, what u upgrade again?? Your OS is Linux too i guess.. if so how you install Max Payne in Linux?

^-^"

AMD64 Turion x2 TL-50 and TL-52 are same 1.66ghz.. only different is the cache.. but what is the different between this two?? izzit really worth to upgrade to TL-52 with rm600-700??

1.There are some games need to download the plug in to play the game. Nowadays,the games almost available for all platform already.Not worry about this.
2.Linux OS also use many system cache la,see how much application u use in. Many plug in to be download after install the OS.hehe..Linux have a nice design with interface(like MAc do)

Turion X2 TL-50 and 52 just RM150 different only.Where u get this info?If u want to compare the compaq v3164 and v3133 then that is many different not only processor.The v3133 got anti glare screen,glossy surface(anti scratch),512 RAM,dvd writer,6 in 1 card reader..worth than that.

diskeeper ey?ok i'll check it out.thanks.

BTW,i jut noticed my laptop screen is..seems to be a bit too bright?when i open the screen to maximum(tilt outward to 45 degrees maybe?)the colours are clearer and the contrast is excellent.but if i put the screen straight upward(90 degrees angle) the contrast is barely noticeable.eg dark blue looks like light blue..very10x light blue.is this normal??or is it cos of light leakage?if it's light leakage damn that's one hell of a widespread leakage laa sweat.gif haha. laugh.gif it doesn't bother me unless i'm working with white background,like writing this post.it irritates the eyes. shakehead.gif

I burnt all the softwares in a CD b4 i brought the lappy but the place i brought the lappy gave me a copy of all the drivers needed. I guess most if the shops do. Still check and if u have a broad band u can download the latest driver from HP Malaysia site.

Linux distros has fourms like this and almost all the issues can be fixed easly. Personally, i think its an investment to know linux as there is a great interest in the market for the people who know linux smile.gif
