Hello everyone,
I made this mistake and bought a second HP Compaq notebook after first one died out on me.
But whatever it was not too bad here are the related specs:
AMD Turion 64 X2 1.61 GHz
1.5 GB of RAM
256 MB NVidia Geforce Go 6150
First of all, the laptop overheats. With that I mean as shown in Display Settings, GPU core temperature reaches about 120 C. That is one problem.
Other one and probably the most irritating one is that whenever I play a game, after 10 minutes or so games slows down, starts to skip as if my graphics card is not good enough to play. But I do play smooth initially for some time. When it does that, I minimize the game, close the lid and wait for couple minutes. After that it is fine again. If I don't do that after a little while whole system freezes, forcing me to restart.
Did anyone have these problems? Or any suggestions?
I use XP but I have the same problems on Ubuntu it doesn't matter.
Oh, it is Compaq Presario V3000.
Thanks.
