u can't customize like dell to chose what processor u want, want to use graphic card or not,
before buy new laptop, batter check, the processor and graphic card is suit to u or not cos u cant upgrade this 2 thing..

but like other laptop, u can upgrade RAM and Hard Disk only.

you can choose what processor you wanted with dell? source or this is BS.

Yeah, would like to know what will be covered under the ext warranty.
*

it cover part replacement and labor service. battery covered within the 1st year only, with or without ext warranty. unlike some manufacturers whose only cover labor service, this $199 should be consider as worth it.

i wonder if the charger/wire/whatever-it-is-called will be cover accordingly too.

that mean if HDD, RAM, keyborad, webcam..... spoil, then they one to one change the part or repair the part only?

where is the service centre of compaq?
*

yup yup and yup. they'll replace the faulty part with similar or lower but not higher spec new/refurbished part.

pick any place near to you :here:

I'm not sure what exactly it the problem but its highly unlikely caused by different brand RAM. I think its other problem.

A devil on my shoulder tels me that it might be the reason why HP sell the notebook so cheap is because it might not be up to their normal standard. Any thought on this?
*

with 3year ext warranty, i don't really care smile.gif any failed cheating from their side will be fully cover.

upgrade your ram and database program shouldn't have any problem. i don't know if there is cheap laptop with higher than 5400rpm HDD in the market right now.

it doesn't use synaptic but alps touchpad.

no media button but shiny glossy cover it is.

1.5k? where got so cheap?
125x mean with 3450? according to my price list, 2099-250 is the lowest for the laptop with 3450.
*

unless my eyes start seeing things, which is bad, i did read someone buying 126x for RM1699. according to my brilliant calculating skill, i estimated 125x to be somewhere near RM1500

mine is after installing driver... icon_question.gif
*

not 3200 but 3450. which, in theory shouldn't go below 4.0. maybe wrong driver, outdated driver or they mis-integrate x300 instead of 3200 ohmy.gif

Memory remap? I don't see anything like that in the BIOS setting.

I think we should ask people who bought the AMD CQ Series with Vista preinstall to comment on the Dual-Channel issue. Anybody here who bought CQ with Vista?
*

nope. i bought 125AX and install Vista myself. dual channel it is. no screenshot cause if i run CPU-z, it shows "You're running from your office PC. Wait untill you get back home, god damn it!" message.
