Overheating and computer does not take AC power any more.......2005-07-27
Nothing but frustrating.......2004-07-10
Disgrunted
Completely OUTRAGED and FRUSTRATED at this Compaq MISTAKE.......2004-06-26
This laptop is WORTHLESS JUNK. Every time I do anything GPU or CPU intensive it shuts itself off and I lose anything I haven't saved. I've had it repaired twice now, under my $500 Best Buy extended warranty that was supposed to REPLACE (that was the whole sales pitch) a faulty unit. Needless to say they laughed at me, when I suggested replacing it after the second 1-month long mail-in repair service. They just want to keep fixing it, or so they call it. Every time it gets "fixed" it comes back from MicroMedics with cosmetic damage and things don't quite fit the same way. My screen falls open and closed now, as an example. Seems like just when the 1-year warranty from Compaq ran out, this computer started falling apart. My CD-R will not burn CDs (error message during burn), my volume UP button just smashed down into the panel, the fan howls away yet is still unable to cool properly, the battery life is pathetic (under 40 minutes), and it seems like I'm about to go on hard drive number three.
All of this said, I am not hard on this unit. It is always in its case, I use it only when I travel or go to class, I'm gentle with it and I keep it pristinely clean. I'm an MCSE and I know how to keep my Windows installation clean and properly optimized. There is no "user-blameable" excuse here that can justify how BAD of an expierence I am having. I have every intention of contacting the BBB and pursuing litigation against Compaq until I am satisfied with a NEW laptop computer that is worth my money and won't shut off whenever I try to use it. What a joke. Sorry Compaq, you just lost an important customer with MAJOR buying influence in corporate IT America.
Definitely stay away from this machine.......2004-06-22
Wonderful. Thanks, Compaq.
Think about it before you buy!.......2003-08-30

Didn't read all my mp3 cd's and not very good sound.......2003-01-26
At first it worked good. I noticed right away, that sound quality wasn't that great and it didn't play very loud at all. Then it wouldn't play some of my mp3 cd's. It would say "no mp3". I took it back and got the RCA RCD125 and for $20 more it's much much better. It played the cd that this one wouldn't.
I'd stay away from this one.
