Tx200! Hell yeah, I’m almost done with it. Now it undergoes its 3rd year and several times coming in and out the costumer service. The staffs had even known me better than I knew them as the owner of the often-crashed laptop. My laptop had to change its motherboard because the overheat reason or whatsoever, thank god it’s still in the guaranteed period. The last time, just two/three weeks ago, my keyboard and fan got fixed for $200 i guess if it counted in USD.

What the hell happened with this thing?

Mine just died (2 year old). Searching the web, I found out that the TX2000 has problem with it getting too hot and in the process the built in NVDIA video card get de-soldered. There is a lot of tutorial how to fix it yourself because if you take it to HP they will just ask you to pay $500+ US to replace the whole motherboard. This is not Acceptible since this is a design flaw and they sould fix this for a minimum fee and not almost half the price of the original product.

Yes. Most of the drivers are the same as Vista, You should be able to pull down the Touch and Wacom drivers from HP's site.

I have this computer. It is a piece of *edited*. Ive had it three years, had it fully replaced twice, had major problems with overheating and hard drive has gone down and replaced three seperate times as well. Last week, it got so hot, that the caseing of the laptop actually began to melt. This was a COMPLETE waste of money.

I have had TX2000 for 17 months now. Never had any real issues that I don't have on other computers. Never crashed never blue screened. I use it every day at work with MS Onenote. Travel a bit and use it for everything eg: Music, TV, DVD player, Internet, email, Diary (Onenote). It does everything for me. Admitedly it is not the fastest machine but reliable for me.

I thought the tx2000 was amazing, Then, I got the blue screen of death MANY time only a few months after purchasing it and became completely non-accessible … I am so disappointed. After many hours of being on the phone with tech support, I sent it in to be fixed… and lo and behold… it's back. SOOOO disappointed! But, I am relieved to know that I am not the only one w/ the BSOD.

So, with that said, I am tired of this and willing to try anything at this point.. How exactly do I get to the BIOS update?
