tx1030la
This was the sequence for me:
Bought it on 2007
before the warranty ended, it went dead. Wouldn't turn on. Sent it to the official Service and they sent it back with a new motherboard.
Now in the last few months (starting around early 2009).
1) No more touchscreen. Don't know which driver controls that part, but updating or reinstalling nvidia graphic drivers doesn't help.
2) No more SD card reader. At first it would start after a few tries, but now it doesn't.
3) No more WLan. It doesn't even appear in the Device Manager list (under Network, or even as an unrecognizable device), so no manual reinstall or update of the drivers is possible. Installing the drivers with the executables downloadable from the HP site doesn't help.
Reading the HP site and other sites' fora regarding this issue in the tx and dv series, and since I'm out of warranty, and have apparently used my "one free motherboard replacement" (that in some places is mentioned as a get-out-of hell-free card for repairing this kind of issues) and they say that it will probably die soon after this problems arise.
It appears i have bought a US $ 1700 (that's how much it costed in Argentina in 2007) machine that lasts only 2 years.-
