| katzlbt's Full Review: Hewlett Packard Pavilion zt1175 (F3394HR) PC Noteb... |
I used it for about a year now. 1 pixel broken on flat panel display (always/blue). The Ethernet fails o n resume suspend an I always have to disable/enable ethernet after resume. The modem always uses too low connection speed 33.000 if another modem connects at 56.000 on the same line.CDRW writing with XP built in software fails (if Veritas/HP Drive Letter Access switched off) MP3 buttons and other stuff is useless and just hidden marketing. WinDVD is quite bad software too and has trouble with lots of cd's (and is regionalized). All drivers are current as of Jan 2003.
