I have been having major problems with my laptop. It has been brought back to circuit city over 3 times, they suck!! Then called manufactuer and they made us run a test on the hard drive which passed, then had us re install everything 2 times. Whats been happening is a physical memory dump, computer freezes when starts up, doesnt even get passed the windows loading so i have to shut it down holding the power button. It has told me that a hard drive could not be detected, to the graphics driver not wotking. Why is this happening especially 2 minutes after everything was reinstalled??? Please Help me this computer cost me $1900 and i just want it to work??

I'll be purchasing a Lenovo 3000 N100 in the next week or so. It'll have the following specs:

Intel Core Duo T2300 1.66GHz
XP Professional
14.1" VibrantView TFT Screen
Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950
80GB, 5400rpm Serial ATA
8x DVD-R
Modem/Ethernet/ABG/Bluetooth

Should I choose 512Mb or 1GB of RAM? It's $90 more for the extra RAM, so I'm not worried about the price, too much. But, I'm not buying the notebook, it's a present from my parents, so I'd like to keep their cost as low as possible.

Programs that I'll be running:
Office Professional - including Access
Quickbooks
Internet
No hard core (Sims, Doom, etc) gaming - only internet and standard games
I am considering upgrading to Vista when available.

Any advice is great. Thanks:)

This headset, made by Dasan, partially works. When I press the mute or vol up/down buttons on its control panel, on myscreen, it shows the sound muted on the sound manager icon on the taskbar and the sliders move up and down on the sound manager screen, but no sound comes through the earpiece and the mike doesn't seem to work - I have the compatible software and service pack 2 which is reccommended. It is supposed to be P&P so there is no drivers to install.
Can anyone suggest anything?

Thanx

and even better, I have a router and a wireless network I wonder if you could hook up the cable TV through the wireless router. that would be AWESOME (and I grew up in Huntington Beach so when I say "AWESOME" I mean it)
