hihi those compaq user here,

here i hav 1 question....y my lappy screen resolution cannot go higher than 1280 x 768?

izzit tis resolution is the max that V3250 can go?the lappy is using Gforce 6150...

because its widescreen. 1280*768 is the supported resolution. U can go higher but the screen was too small to display all

o..got it

what is the average heat of this laptop?
its getting really heated up sometimes...

same wit u, i had a similar prob. this is the second time. this is really irritating! not even a year, and yet a similar problem occured again. may i know, if i send my laptop to the service centre for the motherboard replacement, how long would it takes? coz b4 dis i sent to the dealer and i waited for 4 weeks to get my laptop back. can anyone answer my question plsss...

Hi guys, just bought my V3415AU from All IT. Proud owner of this lappie though. Got it for 2199 and added up 70 for extra 512 ram

ok sorry.. i missed out this post. so, if i send it to the service centre, i'll get it, lets say in around 4 days. ok..thats great. suppose i sent my laptop to the service centre when the first time my laptop brokedown.at least no need to wait for a month.

but, really. im also using v3119. the last two months the motherboard buat perangai. n now? im facing the same problem again. its lucky i still got the one year warranty. but what the hell. i bought it just for 6 months, n got twice the motherboard problem. im really disappointed. and now the warranty is about to expired. n i need to pay again to extend the warranty. i donno..in the future, how long will i be loyal to this laptop b4 throw it into the bin. im a student. i bought this laptop for rm2900 (yeah surprise to see that nowadays other compaq lappy wit similar specs are much lower in price than mine). i dont hear from acer or dell or benq users that they are having the same problem with mine.

no offence though..i like this laptop.its beautiful. having no problem except for the motherboard failure thingy. perhaps many of u here will get mad with me. but yes. im very2 disappointed with v3119au. i can see that a lot of ppl having this same problem. well..u know how i feel..

I've heard you guys talking about some sound stuff but so far mine dont have any. Just using it for browsing n typing though..

luckily my sound system have not given me any problems yet...
just the heat, kinda makes me feel insecure...

hmm, now even 31xx series also got problem, I think so far v32xx is the most stable among all isnt it? at least the complaint I saw is lesser compare to v31xx / v34xx

Mine now unable to play midi song.. nothing come out.. Yesterday i tried to set the microphone setting. i enable the advance control. But on "Mic In Volume" it didnt have the advance button. But i remember that before this, it does got

Need some help here. I've went to the HP website and found some issue regarding downgrading the vista installed presario or pavillion and dual boot system. It say's there that doing so will void the warranty of the note book. My question are

1. What if the system preinstalled was a Freedos? By the way, mine is a V3415AU.

2.If you installed the ahem windows XP, will also void the warranty? I was thinkin of purchasing the three years warranty, but mine now already been installed with ahem XP.

Have any1 came accross this?

Thanks in advance...

tq bububang.. ive already installed the driver and its works!

try to install this driver.. sp32768 HP Wireless Assistant.. go to compaq.com and search for sp32768

mine in 80-90 C..


ok for V3415AU model.. u can install the listed driver as "Windows XP SP2 Setup & Installation Guide for V3119AU/V3009AU" in 1st page except for Broadcom Wireless.. the driver for WiFi is sp32768 HP Wireless Assistant

I am using v3415AU. upgraded my RAM to 2gb to support Vista. So far my laptop work perfectly fine. I bought Zamlan NC1000 cooling board for my laptop and i use it in aircond room. So far so good.

NP

The temperature.. wow.. it too high.. for mine the 1st time use is about 60-70.. but after i use some software to maintain the speed at 800mhz for quite awhile then now the average is about 60+ C using dynamic switching

hello. just got my V3616AU yesterday.. cant find driver anywhere.. i alrdy tried most of the driver at the 1st post. but still didnt work. anyone got solution for this?

i feel you man..my motherboard has change for the THIRD time in 1 year..i'm disappointed with the service and the laptop..my warranty is running out next month..i guess this motherboard would last for another few months..feel like changing this laptop with dell vostro..oh btw, you can write a complaint at hp website..i did and guess what?they asked me to do a f**king survey and one of their personal gave me a call few days back and asked TWO f**king questions..i was like "that's all?!" really disappointing IMO for a big company..this is the last time i'm buying hp products..anyways, i'm not trying to make you guys hate this company or laptop, just that beware of what you bought..i recommend you get the 3 years warranty because trust me, this laptop will give you problems in your first year..especially the cheap motherboard they are using..i rest my case..

Added on September 15, 2007, 11:48 pmif you send to the service center, it will take 3 working days for them to repair you laptop..the engineer will give you a call when its done plus they will let you know what changes they have made..but once you send your laptop to the service center, you will go there 3-4 times to send your laptop for repair again(means that your laptop will spoil again in a couple of months)..
