how about the warranty covering range..? Hp Malaysia will do any services for your laptop from other country..?

Warranty are usually worldwide but limited to certain condition which u can asked HP about it. Why want to deal with U.S based HP when u can easily deal with malaysian one?

Because the Santa Rosa platforms are not available here....

Not even on the HP Malaysia Website....

anyone know about avast av, as in does it have auto-detect of viruses when u plug in thumb drives etc? coz when i plugged in a thumb drive which had a virus, it didnt auto-detect it. windows autoplay showed the normal options of viewing folder n all and also an option to open the .exe file inside which was a virus. so i just opened the folder, but it didnt detect any viruses straight away till i scanned it. do i have to set some options??

My Avast started blaring warning sirens as soon as I plugged a camera (or well, the cam's memory card) that contained a virus in... I don't think I changed any settings though.

the latest version? i dont think mine went off....only after i scanned...

Btw...you can try Kaspersky AV....it's available at Bulk Session...I guess it's a preety effective antivirus....quite satisfied with it so far....

no1 use AVG here ??
its free ...
but for me .. normally i din use any anti virus 1 ^ ^

Avast is free too. I initially wanted to use AVG, as that's what I usually use, but I tried to download it from several different sites and I couldn't install it on my Vista Home Premium. It just kept telling me there was something missing in the download/installation file.

izzit ?
i can use the AVG on the Vista oso o ^ ^

Really? Maybe it's the install file-- but I dl-ed from AVG website / Cnet...

Anyone tell me wat is the uses of the quickplay thingy??? i feel that is very annoying and useless. But i hear that u can play movie and music with it even without switching on to window???

if ur laptop is off,pressing one of the quickplay buttons will on the laptop,INCLUDING vista,and instantly bring up the quickplay menu.

why they on vista at the same time is beyond me,and IMO,the quickplay buttons are annoying...

is kaspersky better than avast?? does it take longer to load n all?? coz for me right now avast seems pretty good n all except for the fact that i mentioned it didnt seem to auto-detect the virus taht was in the thumbdrive

Gotta pay for Kaspersky AV

Avast and AVG = free!

can get Kaspersky for RM 60 in bulk section if im not mistaken.

How's the sound quality when recording with the dual microphones next to the webcam? I've had people tell me that it's (very very very) soft and unclear (basically impossible to talk) when I'm sitting and talking in front of my laptop (with the mic set at full volume)... but they can understand me clearly when I plug a mic into the jack (so it can't be Skype/Vista and driver compability issues).

Anyone else having a similar experience, or do I have faulty mics? o.O

*does some testing with the sound recorder*

mine scans thumbdrives while browsing thru it..
so if i browse a folder with a virus in it,it will pop out with a warning..that's the best it does..

but hey.FOC

It depends on your surrounding as well as the microphone volume in your sound properties. If you set this both properly, you will have no problem talking to people using the built in mic. And the quality is just as same as normal mic, except the built in is a bit soft.

Added on May 15, 2007, 2:07 amWhat's the error message given to you? Usually when you burn a disc for recovery, it won't take that long. Tell me the error message so that i can detect the real problem. Usually this case is very rare except if your DVD is spoilt or soomething
