Do they give 0% interest and easy payment

anyone tried modding the radeon drivers into mobility drivers for the HD 3450? i feel that the fan doesnt work well after modding the driver. pretty noisy.

there is a possibility that the new 133/134AX uses a newer seagate HDD caz momentus 5400.4 does not come in 320GB.

Momentus 5400.4 is used in 125AX

Momentus 5400.5 features

* 8-MB cache delivers fast performance.
* Robust design and high shock tolerance enable mobility in rugged notebook operating environments.
* 1000 Gs of nonoperating shock make the drive ideal for notebook PCs and industrial applications.
* Utilizes ramp load features that remove the head from the disk during idle periods, improving idle power consumption and adding to the durability of the drive
* QuietStep™ technology enables ultra-quiet load/unload acoustics.
* SATA 3Gb/s interface with Native Command Queuing
* Perpendicular recording technology
* Seagate 5-year limited warranty

after reading through Momentus 5400.4 and 5400.5 datasheets, i found out that both of them are almost identical. the momentus 5400.5 is just designed to support 320GB both has 8MB cache, QuietStep, Ramp load, same power consumption. those are the significant things of the HDD. the only difference is that 5400.5 has higher resistants to shock, 1000G... the major improvement is in Momentus 5400.6 which has G Protection(a shock protection system) found in most very high end notebooks buy IBM n Fujitsu. 5400.6 is significantly more expensive.

ask him go get from the hp store outside lowyat... 134AX is better and same price. ask for free optical mouse and hp backpack upgrade also. also upgrade to 4GB DDR2 800MHz rams. highly recommended to get the hp backpack... its good quality and cheaper than buying a notebook bag from retail.

the latest Prince of Persia works on CQ40-125AX plays pretty good too...

i think the problem lies with the SB700 chipset. windows XP doesnt allow AHCI (Advanced Host Controller Interface) by default so installation might not work. some bios can allow the SB700 to emulate an legacy interface. windows vista supports AHCI out of the box. SB600 and older does not support AHCI. most new motherboards 2008 onwards has AHCI support.

in vista, if it detects AHCI during installation it will install the necessary drivers for it to work. if the motherboard is unable to switch SATA modes, windows xp will not work, which this is the case with manufacturer BIOSes.
