HP computer is fine but hate Windows Vista Premium compared to Windows XP Home Edition.
Great machine and well worth the price. My oh my, what a wonderful surprise. The only hang-ups I had were a result of my impatience. Seems HP has fixed some of the problems others have come across. Game on in good health and Merry Christmas.
HP Pavilion M8330F Desktop PC (AMD Phenom 9500 Quad Core Processor, 3 GB RAM, 640 GB Hard Drive, Vista Premium)Got the computer quick tried to fire it up but system could not find boot disk and wanted me to install it. Definitely something I would recommend even with the hassle. IF USING A TV FOR MONITOR RECOMMEND USING AN HDMI CABLE TO CONNECT WITH PC.
Plugged it in and started right up;however, Vista would not display on my TV (32in pc ready HDTV). Now the computer works awesome, no other problems with tuner card, video card, hard disks or processors. After looking at the computers initial settings noticed only one 320gig hard drive was recognized opened case and noticed the serial cable was not connected to the second hard drive (the one with vista installed on it).
There are options you can play with to get the desktop to fit the screen. Hooked it up to old monitor and it worked eventually played with the graphics card settings and got everything straight. Using a HDMI cable was able to connect PC to HDTV.
Although Intel chips are better this machine still smokes anything I have ever owned.
Graphics card is faster than average, but not top-notch. HP's AMD Athlon dual-core 6000 plus w/3 gigs of RAM is the minimum here, as a power-hungry Vista OS sucks any extra speed out of this system. TV tuner card blows, so don't buy this setup for that (which I did). I still can't figure out how to run analog signals from my camcorder and have them play on the monitor, even though it has composite video IN through AV cables, and an (overrated) "media center" configuration (makes 10 dollar sounds but delivers 5 dollar performance). Others have written that the drives are noisy, but it's only the the seeking portion of the multi-drive that is loud, plenty quiet for my needs, and money saved is several hundred dollars less than a comparable Dell.
I'm so glad I paid the extra $130 for the quad core processor. And.despite all the bad stuff I heard about Windows Vista -- I really like it. It will extend the life of the computer by a few years and it makes the computer run really fast now. Even Windows Vista can't slow it down. Everyone complains that Windows Vista is too slow -- but not with this computer. And the TV tuner card is great -- we get 34 channels and we just use an antenna.
