Hi everyone, my friend also just recently bought this notebook, and if vista "cough version won't goes thro..lol"
V3616AU

Apparently some drivers like from nvidia official sites, when you dl it, it says "not found hardware" or failed to install...

But actually you'll need "FORCE" it to install then it can goes thro ._."""

Need extract whole installer into one folder, and force it install from the .inf file.

Thats how I install all the drivers...

It should works for v3614au, and other series too =3

/Tonight I'll upload some tutorial pics on how to install it

^ Those, you can download the nforce drivers from nvidia website.

Lol, kinda need some steps, since the devices, especially notebooks doesn't really supports generic drivers.

You'll need manually install them one-by-one.

for V3616au notebook please go download NVIDIA Nforce 560 driver
that's the driver for your Wired Lan Network, Graphic Card and many other devices

Depends... I've long since recycled the box that contained my notebook but not to worry as the model number of the notebok is also stuck at the bottom of the computer... For my V3319, the sticker is right below the headphone slot actually...

Hi Gamesky,

Are you user for V3616AU ?? How did you install your Broadcom 802.11a/b/g wlan and bluetooth lan access server driver ? I can't find any from the HP website

mine is compaq AMD turion64 1.8ghz

is it possible to upgrade the cpu to 2.0 ghz on laptop?
can DIY??

It is a good buy compare to dell machines? looking forward to buy a notebook this coming pc fair

Wireless LAN and can use this http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwar...3554101&lang=en

While for bluetooth, you can use drivers from other v3000 series [for windows xp], since its compatible, and tested "/.

No, I don't have the notebook D: , just helped a friend that day, and wanted to share with you guys on how to installs the drivers "/.

Hmmm, hard to really give my comments there as both notebooks are equally good and affordable... I've use both low-end Dell and HP Compaq models actually...

Btw, when is the PC Fair?

maybe u can try overclock to boom ur laptop?

from my point of view, pc fair doesnt mean lappie comes in nice price..
sumtimes they juz rise it a lil compare to its normal day price and giv cheap freebiez.

pc fair same price with xtra premiums.

anyone has the guide (pictures included) to disassemble our laptop?
or more like upgrading RAM and HardDisk guide?
