manrow's recommendation

Good Points

Fast to load and offers easy restore option through its own DVD burner.

Bad Points

On/Off button weak link. Hs failed to come out of hibernation frequently after about a month's use, and has now failed to start at all now after 3 months use.

General Comments

Haven't yet discovered how good/bad PC World repair systems are as cannot find receipt at the moment. Will let you know!

   Exactly the same problem happened with my laptop last night, would not switch on, and when it did would cut off again, i to will have to take it back to PC World, only had it since Christmas 2006.

   My laptop was away to PC World for 3 weeks and the tracking system lost it and had no idea when it would be returned other than could see it was ready for dispatch. I was on the phone to them when it was delivered by courier. It still has the fault that it will only write to CDs and not DVDs as well. According to the technicians at my local Pc World I can expect to receive a CD to update my software, but they told me that last February. Whenever I enquire in the store they take my phone number and threaten to call me with info; they never do, I feel a letter to the chief executive coming!!

   Hi, I received it as a gift at Christmas and I have been back to PC World countless times and all they offer is system recovery. I have been back with friends and family and all they have done is fob me off. Have you had problems with the chipset?

   Not yet is the answer to that problem!
   
   Mine needed a new motherboard, and touching wood, has been faultless since, other than will not burn CDs!
