hi all, i have just bought a dv2 but i am having some doubts on the laptop:

1. the sound only coming out from the left side of the speaker but not the right. Any other user experience the same thing or my speaker is faulty.
2. the laptop is freaking hot and my system is delaying for few seconds to respond. I m suspecting the hardisk is over heated.

Any other owner can share the experience. Thank you.

this model is new, i think not much users....

go claim warranty? for the speakers...

This model is quite new, so i think there only few users around...

Still got warranty, so send over to HP Services Center

For the hot issue, have you tried using a Cooler Pad with the dv2?? Maybe the laptop is normally hot..

it's hot as 1 of my client using it. as usual i will suggest them to carry cooler around but again. wat's the point of getting such 12" and 1.8kg devices where u need to carry a cooler. this is wat they told me.

^ thats a good point there. i nvr thought of that. ur client must be very intelligent

thinking of getting this baby
nice design
affordable price
any other problems detected?

a good cooler will weight at around 1kg.... again... that's even worse...

it's not the cooler.... actually where u rest ya palm when u typing that area generated most of the heat.

my HP mini 2133 Via processor already consider hot. and it's hotter than 2133.

this is what i concern earlier about AMD processor with dedicated GC which will generate heat fast.

TS how much u bought?

pc fair stated 2399 free microsoft e-learning course + sonic gear headset + optical mouse

SO cheap? using what processor?

AMD athlon neo
2 gig ram
320 HDD

new AMD Neo 1.6Ghz single core

is this processor reliable? seem like not bad? screen size 12.1 inch?

I was looking at this model too, but then decided to get the Compaq 12" instead coz I wan the DVD drive built-in. Both was on display next to each other.

Having problems so soon after pcfair is scary. For the Compaq, the part where you rest your wrist while typing is just a little bit warm.

i bought at the price 2399+free upgrade 3 years warranty+free cooler pad+mouse+keyboard guard+ms e-learning

it also came with ext-dvd writer.

for me to know, for you to find out

lol, they replaced your headset with those cooler, mouse and keyboard guard?
the headset costs RM79 as stated in the brochure

a relevant question here if i were to bring the dv3 + the external drive. wahts the entire weight?

heat issue so common these days i wonder any way to counter them beside cooler?

heat issue reallly irritating, i wonder is all the tiny lappy tend to have heat problem?
