General Comments

Several 'repairs' under extended warrenty via PCWorld. Thank goodness I took out the 5 years extended cover. No problems for first year at all. Then I hit problems with the computer hanging, refusing to re-start, and freezing. Took back to PC World and got good prompt action and pleasant service. Collected from repair a week later and no problems for 3 months. Then it all happened again, together with a black screen. Back to PC World, wait a week, and OK for a while. Next problem was a display fault with blue and yellow pattern line across screen at different positions. Fortunately I took photoevidence at fault time, and took with me when I next visited PC World. This supported my claim of a problem, and eventually M/B was replaced, which also solved black screen problem. Since then, touch wood, no problems. Advice to anyone with problems - be firm, be polite, and above all try to take photo evidence to support your problem.
