HP/Compaq :: HP Mini 2140 Vs Mini 1000 (10" Model)
Jan 21, 2009I'm trying to figure out the difference between the two other than the casing (one's metal and one's plastic). The 2140 uses a SATA connector vs a PATA connector. So for $25 extra(lowest config 2140 vs highest config 1000) you get a metal case and SATA connector?
Why would anyone buy the 1000? Am I missing something? Oh and the 2140 has a higher volatage adapter for 'fast charging'...what's left for the 1000?

HP/Compaq :: Gaming V.s Temp
Jan 19, 2009I'm probably going buy and HP laptop soon, the HDX 16"...
So therefore, I was wondering how the gaming is on your sexy HP. Not graphically wise or fps and such, but temp wise. For instance, how long do you get to game for before things get too hot or do you manage to keep things at decent temps for a full day worth of gaming
Personally I don't play too intensive games, mostly world of warcraft. Nothing hardcore like crysis and stuff. So i'd imagine i'd get some decent gaming hours as long as i keep things cool haha by getting a zalaman pc cooling pad and if i decided to undervolt.

Mar 19, 2009Buying a new laptop soon... choices are a HDX16t (P8400 and Nvidia 9600M GT 512MB) or a DV6t (T6400 and ATi HD 4650 1GB). I'm just looking to play Everquest 2, and even though it's a 2004 release, it's pretty intensive. So I'm wondering if I should deal with the slower CPU and slightly better GPU or vice versa?

May 4, 2009HP has great customer service.....i have an hp compaq laptop and hp printer..and had great experience with customer service...they come to your place to collect n everything.
but one problem..they never seem to make laptops with high end specs...all their laptops have great design, great secondary features..but the specs never touch the gaming level.
especially the graphic cards.
of course they made the 20" dragon..but i am talking about smthg in 15 - 16" area.
are there any models out yet which have atleast 8600M GT?
HP/Compaq :: Gaming On The DM3Z W/ 4330
Nov 4, 2009I dont really want to bother reading through the enormous lounge topic, but has anyone tried out gaming on the DM3Z with Radeon 4330?
I'm specifically wondering how CoD4/5 plays and if you think CoD: MW2 would be playable on it (assuming I decide to get it,will wait for reviews).
HP/Compaq :: Gaming (NVS 5100M Vs. QUADRO FX 880M)

8540p with 5100M or 8540w with 880M
Price difference is minimal, so i'm going for a configuration that will offer better gaming performance

May 28, 2010Can any ENVY owners (any model is fine), comment on the cooling system, hardware temperatures, physical temperatures, etc.? And if anyone knows about the cooling system/features/vents for the ENVY 14.
Also, compare ENVY's gamingability to the m11x, MSI GE600 or MSI GX640, if possible.
HP/Compaq :: Envy 15 G2 Hard Lockup/freezing During Gaming
May 10, 2010Having an issue with my Envy. As soon as I got the machine I installed a SSD and clean copy of Win7. Drivers were downloaded from the thread in this forum section. The computer seems completely fine, temps are well within normal range (68c load CPU 74c load GPU). Besides the crashes, I have not experienced any other sort of instability with this machine.
The issue is an annoying hard lockup-my games will completely lock up and go into an infinite sound loop. The only remedy is a hard reset-I can not access the task manager or any other Windows functions. This happens at seemingly random, whether it be 5 minutes into a match or 2 hours in. The crash is not being triggered by heat-my system stays very cool, even during gaming.
The crashes seem to happen in any 3D game (but not furmark, for some reason)-at first I thought it was an issue with Bad Company 2, but after having time to muck around, I've realized that it is happening in all my games (including Just Cause 2, Team Fortress 2, GTAIV, Trackmania, Battlefield 2, etc).
I can't think of any reason why this is happening-I have a relatively clean Windows installation (need to save space on SSD) and up to date drivers. The only program I run in the background is NOD32, which has not given me any issues in the past with my other machines (I have tried disabling NOD32, to no avail).
My best guess is that it is video driver related. I have tried the Catalyst 10.4 driver from HPs website, as well as the 10.x ALL 8.74 beta driver-the 8.74 driver unlocks more resolution options and fixes BC2 load times, but both drivers are susceptible to the crash.
HP/Compaq :: HP Pavilion Dv6-1240ep - Reaches High Temperatures While Gaming
Feb 18, 2010I aquired this Laptop in...October 2009. I'm really happy with it, but I have a question.
It reaches high temperatures while gaming, about 90º-95º and it's keeps around 70º in idle.
I haven't noticed any problem with performance or anything, only the fan kicks really high as soon as I start a game.
Is it normal? I always heard that AMD Cpu's are hotter than Intel.
HP/Compaq :: Do The New Mini 311's Have Ion Or Ion LE
Oct 28, 2009I've been looking at the Mini 311 on Amazon, which is selling for $399. I'm going to send my (slow!) dv2 to my daughter for a spare laptop as soon as the Windows 7 upgrade arrives (which won't be real soon from what I'm reading!! ) Amazon says their Mini 311 has the Ion LE graphics. On the HP website though, they are selling the same system for the same price - but it doesn't have the "LE" qualifier listed. Do the newer direct-from-HP editions have the "full" Ion - or is this just an oversight by HP on their website?

Dec 4, 2009I know that this has the new ION chip, but how far will that go? Like what kind of games will that let you play. I know that this is far from a gaming machine but do you think it would be able to play like d2 and tf2 on low setting pretty well?

Jul 12, 2009I'm looking to get the HP Mini 110, but am curious as to how long the battery actually lasts, and if anyone has the 6-cell battery, how long does that last as well?
I've looked at a few netbooks already, including dell/toshiba/asus/acer, but I've fallen in love with the HP keyboard and want to go that route.
Also, i know the N270 and N280 processors are 'almost' identical, does the battery life differ on either?
HP/Compaq :: Mini 700
Apr 8, 2009I've been thinking about getting a netbook for a long time now, ever since the firsts Asus EEE was released. I was so sure to get the Sony Vaio P but now after seeing how sleek this machine is (and cheap!) I just can't get it off my mind. @_@
Here's an unboxing vid I found - [url]
HP/Compaq :: HP Mini 5101
Aug 1, 2009The 5101 seems to have just about everything I was looking for in a netbook. It is currently available for $399. Is that a good price or are there discounts (student, etc) that would drop the price even further?
Also, is there any reason to wait? Some new hardware about to be released? Or is Windows 7 going to be worth the wait for a netbook?
HP/Compaq :: HP Mini 2140
Mar 12, 2009I am ready to buy the HP Mini 2140 (maybe the 6 cell too). Where can I buy this right now in Vancouver, Canada? I can't seem to find any major retail stores with these in stock.

HP/Compaq :: HP Mini 1000 Mi OS
Jan 4, 2009Does this OS run like windows? can i pop in lets say world of warcraft and install and play it normally? will it run blizzards background loader? i just want to know if this OS will run like a normal OS.
Or is the Mi OS ment for people who really just want a netbook for internet and small media and nothen more because the OS wont let them do anything else other than what HP gives them?
HP/Compaq :: Mini 311 Limited To 1 GB RAM If Used With XP
Dec 1, 2009I'm thinking about getting an HP Mini 311 from the HP website. I plan on getting it with the N280 CPU, Ion graphics and Windows XP (I need XP for some hardware I want to use that doesn't have W7 drivers). The problem is that the HP site won't let me order it with 2 or 3 GB of RAM unless I order it with Windows 7. Is the Mini 311 limited to 1 GB of RAM under XP or can I upgrade this on my own later? I thought XP could address up to 4 GB of RAM?

Jan 7, 2009Hp has pulled the cloth off their new HP netbook, the HP mini 2100. Now from what I've read most if not all the specs are same to the mini 1000. Only thing i can see that is diffrent between the two is it's not all black, the keyboard might not be a copy of the famous 1000 keyboard and the 2100 is offering the holy 6 cell battery! which is said to give 7 hours of net time! thats alotta . i mean office work *cough*.
I'll post the artical in a few mins, if this was posted sorry i didnt bump it.
question. is the keyboard on the HP 2000 same as the keyboard on the mini 1000?
HP/Compaq :: Mini 1035NR
Feb 18, 2009Today my HP Mini 1035NR netbook arrived, and I was extremely happy to get my hands on a new toy. Upon opening it up and starting it up I liked how bright the screen is. It's small and light, and looks very cool.
The keyboard is spacious, and I needed only a few minutes to get used to typing fast on it. I do need more time though to become proficient in using the lesser keys, including the Home and End keys, and the function keys which are smaller.
The wireless works very nicely, picking up my home network easily. It's speedy, and downloads stuff very quickly.
The trackpad and its buttons are very responsive. The two mouse buttons being on the side are not a problem for me.
HP/Compaq :: HP Mini Note 1000
Jan 2, 2009i have a HP DV5T which is awesome. plays all my games, and is quite possibly the perfect laptop. but, has anyone seen how cool the mini note is? dear god, my only problem is justifying the price, and if i need it. i go to college and live in a dorm. would buying the mini note completely destroy the reason i have a $1500 laptop in the first place?
i do work at best buy, and theirs is $399 and it's got 16GB SSD, 2gb HP flash module.
1.) it says it has a "bluetooth bus enumerator"? is that a bluetooth module or no? i do ask because it plays a small factor in the purchase.
2.) secondly, does anyone know if the mini note at Best Buy has that cool HP software on it? our display doesnt, so i do wonder.
[at HP.com in the APP store i can get the same one (16gb SSD, and bluetooth for sure) for $437. i might go there?]

Apr 24, 2009I have a HP Mini 1030NR which I got as a present, I already have my own MSI Wind u100 which I absolutely love.
Anyways, the HP has a 16GB SSD and I wanted to know if I could swap that with a 60GB 2.5" HDD I have laying around?
would this be a direct swap? how do I go about cloning the SSD first and then restoring that onto the HDD?
I also have a 2.5" HDD enclosure I could use for the cloning...
