@lowprofile, try the HP 3D Driveguard from HP website.

u want? pm me your email
btw..did u enable sata naive in bios after installation done??

i've just try what u've said..d driver result still unknown
this is d purpose:
This package provides HP 3D DriveGuard for the supported notebook models and operating systems. HP 3D DriveGuard protects the hard drive (HDD) by "parking the heads" if the notebook is accidentally dropped or is abruptly impacted by another object. NOTE: HP 3D DriveGuard provides RAID volume support on systems with the Intel RAID Controller Driver version 8.0.2 (or later). Only Intel RAID Controllers are supported at this time.

mine is XP home + bluetooth model, bios settings untouched. 3d drive guard to protect your hard drive and more durable to shocks.

saw the HP ads in the Star today.... Mini 2133 only RM1049.... do u think is worth buying ?

I just need something for photo viewing and also web-surfing....

understand that compared to 2140 , 2133 has a smaller screen size 8.9in
and Linux Suse, and slower processor...and is about RM400 cheaper...

which one do you think I should buy ?

ambank promotion?

which bank?

It is not Bank CC promotion !!

is on today Star (page N10)..is a HP own promotions :-

1) HP Mini 2133
Via C7
Suse Linux
1 GB 667 mhz SDRam
120 GB Ram
8.9 "
Free slip case
Price: RM1,049

2) HP Mini 2140
Atom N270
1gb SD RAM
160 GB Ram
XP Home
10.1"
free slip case
Price RM1,699

3) HP Mini 2140
same spec as above
except... with Vista Biz
2GB SD Ram
RM2,199



my questions :-

1) For my requirement of photo/video viewing and surfing the internet...
( i already owned a Dell latitiude 1200 notebook and a desktop)

Do u think i should get the 2133 netbook ?

get the 2140 ambank credit card promotion at only RM1299 with 12 months instalment at 0% interest, comes with linux and without slipcase

but he wan to use for video viewing ah???i really nt recommend getting a 10" screen to watch movie lo, too small la...

ok, get HDX18T

yeah, unless it come with free WD Element 160 GB Western Digital external hardisk
otherwise, pay more RM250 for the 2140 which offer by ambank credit card promotion at only RM1299
but I need to apply the am credit card in order to apply this
which credit card free for life annual fee?

now usually they will offer 1 or 2 years free but you must swap it for a number of times each year

problem is, got many cc already.......... not very keen to apply even one more
Rm1049 for 2133 is the last resort , budget is the key since I already got 2 laptops
I still can wait........until great offer

great offer usually can be found in sg but not in malaysia
