I am guessing around RM1800.
Is your Vista Ultimate running smooth or sometimes lag?Initially I planned to install Vista Ultimate in my notebook but decided to install home premium because I thought ultimate use more resource hogging than home premium.

I also using Vista Ulitimate with 3G RAM, everything are so smooth, running Mathlab and Labview, (Engineering Program) very smooth, no lagging.

If they can get profit more than RM150.......they will celebrate for the whole day.......

I was using my Vista Ultimate with unlimited updates running on 2gb RAM, If you dont run RAM intensive programs like Photoshop, Dreamweaver, etc. It should work fine and fast. I dont see any lagging at all. However I am now with 4gb RAM because I need to rip some videos.

Difference between Home Premium and Ultimate it has slightly more features like Dreamscene, etc. I dont think it would consume a significant system resources (maybe only extra 5%?). Microsoft segregates to different vista versions so they could fetch extra price premium.

I believe the problem is caused by ur unstable Vista version? Try to get a new copy and do a clean install. If you dont know where to get, PM me.

Running Vista and everything's running good so far, except for the warm at the left palm rest area, a little too warm for my liking.

Same on my 107TX, FYI I had some problems and took the hard drive out (booted with USB flash drive) and it still gets warm there with no hard drive ! So its not just the hard disk that's causing it.

Something else I noticed is the keyboard flexes a lot when using keys around the 'X' key area,
maybe just my big fingers flex.gif
Anyone else notice this?

Mine is CQ45-129TX. No problem on the keyboard.
If your keyboard bends down at X area, probably it's mechanical defect, call HP to ask if it's covered by warranty?

Taking out HDD might void the warranty le.. will it? hehe
