Good Points: Large 160Gb hard drive 512 RAM Nice looking speakers Flat screen monitor (not LCD) AGP 4X/8X slot Firewire CD covers DVD reader CHEAP
Bad Points: Integrated graphics 250W power Have to push on CD drive to close
General comments: Well, the Compaq SR1150NX has its up and downs, but I am not complaining for the price of $350. The integrated 64Mb graphics are terrible, but you can upgrade them using the AGP slot. The Compaq has CD Drive covers, but unfortunately you have to actually push on the drive to make it close, and I think it might ruin the gearing. I did have a problem, and I still don't know what, but the computer crashed. I fixed it, and both DVD drives that I put in (one TDK and a non-brand name DVD/RW) will now only read DVD and not audio CD's or CD ROM's.
If anyone has had this problem, please can you leave me a comment? Thanks.
Well, my verdict is BUY IT!!!

The fan was improperly mounted, with four screws forced between the fins and there was only one intake and one outake, which were both small. The motherboard is a via, with a via chipset it does look great, but i doubt the quality of it. The bu ...
