If the tape were an actual a waxy and/or liquid interace, I would agree with you. However, the tape seems like it has the consistency of aluminium foil with a liquid/gooey interface between the tape and the metal of the heatsink. I...

Really, the ram has nothing to do with it. It's all about the chipset. If you can guarantee that you have the 915GM chipset and/or you currently are using a 7x0 Pentium M processor, then you'll be assured that the processor will work. ...

I just did this with my DV1000 when I upgraded from a 730@1.6 to a 725@2.13. At least on my version of the DV1000 there is a kind of thick metal tape on the heatsink, that allows for contact with the CPU and heatsink. The tape indents...

I'm pretty sure the new DV1000 uses the 915GM chipset with PC2700 memory. The motherboard uses a divider between the memory and FSB so that it can run at 533MHz w/ 333MHz memory. Remember this only works with DV1000's made after around...

I recently had the good fortune to receive a semi-broken laptop from work. It has a few annoying issues, but other than those it works great. Essentially it has bootup and shutdown issues. Sometimes it won't boot up (won't leave the...

So you're saying this is the case only when you are undervolting your CPU's using rmclock correct? So, theoretically I won't be loosing anything unless I had planned on undervolting my processor. Would the heat still be higher? Do I...

Well I just finished reading the entire thread and it's definately something I'm considering. I'm actually thinking about doing it to an HP DV1000 (they just changed over to the Sonoma 915 chipset). I do have a few questions...

I'd have to say WUXGA on a 14" widescreen might be pushing it a bit. I'd definitely be happy with WSXGA+. I read an article on 14" widescreen models a while back on digitimes.com which talked about the format uncertainty of...
