    Hello all,

    Have been reading this thread and wanted to post to let those
    here that don't know that there is a huge problem with Nvidia
    graphics chips.

    This problem is so big we have started a forum at w w w.nvidiadefect. com

    If you have purchased a laptop containing one of these defective chips then do not pay for a repair, you have rights.

    If you take a look at the above site there is a wealth of information including a "letter before action"

    All the information regarding this problem is available.

    You should print some of it out to take to the retailer if you are having
    problems getting a resolution.

    Why not name and shame the retailers if they are failing to play ball!

    Thank you for reading.

  • As promised, I thought I would let you know the outcome.

    As HP did not respond to any correspondence from me, I had to take it to the Small Claims Court. HP originally defended the claim, but 2 weeks before the court date offered me a brand new replacement (with 12 months warranty) - as a goodwill gesture and refunded all my costs

    Don't give up on your claim - HP should not get away with selling products that are not up to the job.
