Compaq Presario V6000 laptop, widescreen, XP Media Center Edition, AMD Sempron Mobile...Nvidia graphics, Vista capable. got it for $299 :eek: :eek: + 1 yr extended + tax, around $400. Bought at a HEB sale in TX at 4 PM in the morning... had to fight people (literally, push ppl outta the way,ect). I didnt get one but my kid did =) but he got it by alot of punching :D . Well took it home, got it, and had probs with the wireless, HP repaired it, works very well, but it runs very hot:

CD ROM PROBLEM:
whenever I put a game cd in there, every 5 mins or so the gamescreen will pop up, the "instll/uninstall, read me, ect. i didnt click anything to do this though... whats happening???



GRAPHICS PROBLEM:
runs at what PC wizard says 123C at idle :eek: ... if you call idle browsing the internet. something wrong???


OVERHEATING PROBLEM:

65C idle, when checking email :(

Check the insides to make the fan vents are clear, that could cause some serious issues with the cooling. If you feel compfortable putting on new thermal paste that might also help the cooling of it.
