about 90% of the time when you hit the power button nothing happens................... occasionally it goed to the HP welsome screen and freezes................occasionally to Windows boot screen and freezes and on the rare occasion when you actually do get as far as the Operating System proper, the machine either freezes up altogether or when trying to perform a task you get memory dump screens, Protection Fault Screens or Critical Error Screens..................
We are presently dogged with a recurring problem re Port Conflict and feel that this can be the cause of the whole problem!!!! She has one of those Logitech Mice (I like Logitech but dont like the look of this thing!!!) that is a kind of cordless option - but you need to press buttons on the oprical receiver etc to connect with the usb port (Microsofts Optical Mouse is much more reliable and forgiving - and battery free - the first plus I have ever been able to give microsoft for anything!!!!)..................
You pretty much need to leave the batteries in the logitech or every time you take them out and reinstall you have to go through this crazy button routine to get the mouse to communicate with the Motherboard...........................
That said she has the touch key mouse drivers for the Laptop installed also......................
I have run out of ideas as to how to try investigate the port conflict, let alone how to resolve the problem and wonder if anyone there can help................... Could the problem be worse that this given the machines lack of response and poor bootablility performance - could the Motherboard be a bit messed up or worse still the processor????
Would loe a quick solution to this one if at all possible - Personally I have considered the rooftop of a nearby towerblock as a possible platform for early resolution (not for me - for the Machine!!!!!)
