Hi guys, thinking of getting the V3203AU (amd turion 1.6 free dos with dvd rw) or V3204AU ( same except with vista basic) with the full upgrade to 2GB Ram over next weekend.

Can i ask is there drivers for Win XP Home available? If there is no drivers i intend to get V3204AU instead.

I intend to go to Low Yat Plaza.Is there any shops which you bros would recommend?

Thank you bros

hi guys just went to lowyat and one of the shop offered me V3165Au (AMD 1.6 TL50) with upgrade to 2GB ram for Rm 3000.

Is this offer ok? i know the v3100 series is discontinued and replaced with v3200 series but the lappie should be ok ?

Hp also has offers for free targus bag for the new v3200 series

Hi guys when we are at Nvidia Website, where can we download the updated drivers.

Are we looking for the Nvidia Nforce Driver 430/410 with intergrated graphics or is the Graphics Driver?

The Nforce only allow me updates for Win Vista while the Graphics Driver allow the Geforce series Ver 93.71.

Did anyone update their Nforce Drivers?

Visit HP
Already have carepak for 3 years but would like to make sure this is HW issue before i visit them...

The cost was RM 250 for carry in.There are 2 other care pack you can get from HP

Carepack Packages :
3Y Return, Pavilion/Presario Notebk Svc RM300.00 - part + labour + send back to svc ctr MN U4817E


3Y 3 Bus Day Pavilion/Presario Notebk Svc Rm350.00 - part + labour + onsite - MN UA059E

I am not sure if the Rm 199 carepack for new notebook or for extending existing carepack.Please check with HP before you buy. It will be good if one of the bro's provided the details here...

yup.. you are correct..i just checked with HP Sales Annie just now, the Rm 199 can only be purchased online.

If you get it from HP Staff ( via Telephone) they will offer at Rm 300.

I regret getting mine at Rm 250...so Bro's who are buying ..please take note ..

cheers

The PC Fair is giving out targus backpack same as www.hp.com.my/store.

hi,
I found this Dual Core Fixing Guide for AMD X2 processor
http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=983781

Is it applicable for AMD Turion 64? Has anyone tried the recommended fixes?

Please refer to this link for using Linux on ur Compaq notebook
http://www.linlap.com/wiki/HP-Compaq+Presario+V3000z

we should do a poll just to check how many users have problem and what is their opinion of their lappie now...

My relative just bought Dell 1420 last week...quite good actually .At least the dvd writer does not vibrate as much as ours..

By the way did anyone tried hooking up a 19 inch LCD to your lappie..?
Can Nforce 6150 support 1440 x 900 resolution?

Change the amount of dedicated RAM to GF6150 for your notebook.

Hi.. you can send to HP to see what is the problem.

They will quote you the price of repair but you have to pay the technical fee of about Rm 100.00++.I dont quite remember coz i asked to waive the technical charges when i sent in my notebook and they told me my repair cost Rm 1300!! (To replace motherboard)

If you are certain it is the hdd change the hdd and try. If its the lcd... plug your notebook to an external monitor and see if it works.

Good luck

i just sent my notebook to HP to replace the motherboard.Same issue as the rest ( lights on but cant boot to BIOS).

For the guys who had their motherboard replaced...please share your experience on how long it took you and whether the replacement failed again after a few months ..etc

thanks
