HI. i just recently bought my tx1316au too. Bought at my local hometown PC shop for 2999 + rm160 for 2gb ram (1pc rm80 ddr667 kingston). sadly the shop uncle dowan accept ram trade in and now i have 2 pcs of the stock 512mb ram waiting to collect dust =.=.

Demio121: that slot was actually an express card slot that i think should be replacing PCMCIA port. (most new laptop don't have PCMCIA anymore) it just doubles up as a remote control slot for HP pavilion (i think all model lar coz my fren's DV2730 also like that).
I love ur notepal infinite. planning to get 1... we gotta agree that this is pretty hot machine

TO ALL OWNER OF THE TX1316 or equivalent model with geforce 6150.
actually if u go into the bios u can set the dedicated memory of the graphic card. the max actually can set to 128mb. stock preconfigure at 64mb dedicated and 271mb share system memory. Just in case some of you don't know
1st day i try when i got it at my hometown in kedah, because my desktop is in penang i dont have any music at all. so i decided to pop in my phone memory card and copy over more than 1gb of songs in M4a format. then in use iTunes to convert it all back to MP3.. my processor temperature fly sky rocking high at 75C and because the GPU is somewhere beside it it boost up to 81C.
now i use capalang cooler which i stole from my dad (LOL) can keep it below 70 =.=.

edit: i have problem with my stylus inlet. keep it in pressing 1 click wont lock my stylus. have to push in a little more for a snap. and because of that when i wan to take it out i it wont click. i have to press it to make it come out a little and pull it out =.= guess i gonna send for repair soon.
AND i couldn't create the recovery dvd.... always fail on verifying. then test burning with nero 8. turn on disc finalize verification. fail on verify oso.. ARGHHHGHGHG ........... anobody facing this problem? or izzit only me....

edit2: went back reading the 1st 3 pages. don't know why ppl say the finger print reader not so good and the handwriting recognition and writing on the screen is lousy. the finger print reader is very good, better than most from the other brand laptop out there. i swipe my finger pretty quick most of the time and it detect just fine with no problem at all. the handwriting recognition even learn your handwriting at it detects the word very well. i have to say i never had so much fun using paint in windows up until now LOL!! even on windows life messenger sometime i choose to scribble around that typing.. it's just plain fun.
i have to admit the screen is very glossy and reflective... brightness wise is BRIGHT ENOUGH. i sometime even have to tone down the brightness =.=. you have to admit the colour of the screen is good though. it also house one of the clearest and loudest speaker on laptop. i had never tried the new acer with dolby which i heard got a woofer beneath the laptop?? but this is certainly VERY LOUD.
RM2999 is a STEAL for all those entertainment feature with vista home PREMIUM and the best part, IT"S A TABLET!!

i have verifying problem and it just wont skip the verification and go to disc 2. even nero burn data dvd oso kenot veify... haih.. wan cry arh me... but reading DVD no problem at all

few weeks no stop by this thread already. last time i say my dvd burner got problem wit burning error and disc verification fail which means i can't burn my recovery disc or other disc without error what so ever.. my stylus inlet not in perfect condition.. and now i think i manage to damage my 'o' button on my keyboard LOL. will send to hp centre at crystal point penang after chinese new year. actually after using this laptop for a month i am pretty much aware of the common problems like the webcam unable to detect thing.
the webcam problem solution is actually very simple. just go into your device manager and disable it and enable it again. or uninstall it and restart the laptop. touch screen area... try press harder. you are not writing with ink on a paper. please keep that in mind.
overall. i like vista. i must admit it's kinda slow but it doesn't seem to be anything to be bother about. this laptop most ppl will use for just simple text or presentation work, music, videos and stuff. i believe few second delays wont kill you at all.
anyway.. this laptop is really hot.. i got the GPU temp shot up to 89 degree celcius few times.. ordered my cooler master notepal infinite.. still yet to arrive T_T.
those who wan to convert to XP. i think noneed of total conversion larh. dual boot xp mah. vista is fun to use. especially the search functions. very very handy and fast way to find applications and open up. also on vista the quick launch shortcuts can be sort and 1st 9 shortcuts can be open by just the combination of windows key + (number 1-9)

oh yah. there is a fun way of powering the laptop. instead of pulling the lach for the power. click out ur remote control. just a bit where you can see the power button. press it from there you laptop will power on too ^^

it's at krystal point. i think i am sending mine after CNY. now still need to use >< i dont have the extra 2 years warranty. sticking with 1 year but when buying this laptop, upgrading the ram is a must.
2 pcs of 1gb DDR2-667. it's only 70-80 ringgit per piece only. i got mine for 80 bucks per piece. kingston ram
