Eww, pre-builts.
I had a couple of HP laptops and they never worked right. They mostly over heated on me or were spammed with blot HP crappy software installed, making me have re install windows*
I had about 4 HP before I just gave up on their shitty builds. I just got new Asus laptop and haven't seen any problems with it so far.
Eww, pre-builts.
You were seeking strength, justice, splendour.
You were seeking love.
Here is the pit, here is your pit.
Its name is Silence..
I've had an HP dv5 laptop for 4 years and its still working like a charm and haven't experience a single issue except what you guys called over-heating which I don't consider as a problem.
I have did at least 10 clean format from windows 7 to 8.
I gave it to my little brother and bought an alienware.
Funny, first thing i learned from IT school, that never buy a hp laptop
I'm using the same one @-Lame has and it is overheating like shit.
I don't know how to open it and clean the fans
HP is the best company for laptops.
