HP says as many as 900,000 notebooks buggy
Hewlett-Packard has discovered a memory flaw that could be in as many as 900,000 of its notebook computers and is offering customers free memory modules as a remedy. The computer giant said Friday that through tests, it discovered a circuit design flaw in some notebook memory modules that could cause Windows operating system "blue screens," intermittent lockups or memory corruption. HP is asking customers who own specific notebook models to download and run a software utility to test their machine for the flawed memory. HP notebook models affected by the replacement program include Compaq Evo Notebook models N610c, N610v, N620c, N800c, N800v, N800w, N1000c and N1000v as well as Compaq Presario models 1500, 2800, x1000 and x1200, the HP and Compaq Business Notebook nx7000, and the HP Pavilion zt3000.
Checked mine out, no problems
