    after 15 months the graphics went and had to have it repaired, not happy i expected it to last a lot longer than that since talking to other people about it another one of my freinds had the same trouble after 13 months, not a good advert for advent !!!!

The graphics chip on the motherboard has failed an ...

    This Advent 5401 is a piece of junk. The battery life on it is pathetic and after owning it for only 13 months it just died! PC world were useless - their attitude it: thats technology for you! which is unacceptable. Had it checked out by professionals only to find out that the Motherboard has pac ...

    After 13 months of easy use the grahpics failed on my Advent 5401 leaving a completely dead laptop. PC World's (the supplier) only comment to me was ' thats modern technology for you' and refusal to do anything about it.
    So I would definitely think twice before purchasing this machine.
