Whee, got myself a CQ40-125AX a few days ago. Came with FreeDOS so I formatted it and put XP on it. It's OK overall but I have some problems/questions/complaints:

1. One and a half hour battery life by web surfing only? Must be the ATI HD3450 sucking all the power. Any battery upgrades I can consider?
2. Bad driver support, HP website only has some of the drivers (e.g. no wifi and card reader drivers, graphics driver cannot detect hardware  doh.gif ). Took me literally days of googling to get all the hardware working.
3. My fingerprints on the lid!!! ARGH!!!  vmad.gif Interested in some kind of stick-on protection layer (if such a thing exists)

On an unrelated note, why the heck do HDMI cables cost RM70??? I wanna plug this baby into my parents' HDTV!  drool.gif

wow...not even 2 hours ya?? or the ACPI driver din't install properly??

I tot HP provide full drivers for Win Vista?? unless u plan install XP

I'm using CQ40-115AU with Win XP. I also want to know how to resolve the function key brightness adjustment. Not functioning at all.

Another thing is I dunno why my laptop quite laggy when using adobe reader and when i try to change the word setting(word size) in microsoft word 07.

Anyone using same model with Win XP having the same problem? Laggy?

lol Vista isn't that bad right? smile.gif IMO vista performance is faster than xp, although the startup background services twice the XP, battery management wise also better than XP

hello guys, i'm currently using this brand new CQ40-115AU. Got it from PC fair at RM1699 about a week ago. Everything seems fine but hey the battery life drains that fast?

With medium screen brightness, and on power saver plan, the battery stands for only near 2 and a quarter hour?! And heck i was only doing normal web browsing on LAN without any music player playing.

am i asking too much for this budget laptop or something is wrong with my battery? thanks in advance

new battery need few full charges to gain the good performance, btw its normal for amd cpu 2 hours +
