Dv7t-3000 - Sata or Sata 2 - Please help explain what this has!
I assumed that Sata 2 being mainstream for so long, this new laptop of mine would have it.
I want to buy one of the nicer SSD for this unit, but I can NOT confirm anywhere that it will run up to 300 megs.
If it's Sata 1 then I wouldn't be getting much performance gain from a SSD as this 7200RPM HDD rates up to 100 megs.
I contacted HP Support and got told that my laptop only has Sata 1.
I find this impossible to believe. Why in the world would HP do that? I read in a post on the forums that this laptop
falls into the top 5% for overall performance for laptops. How is that so unless it has sata 2? Why would they
have old Sata 1 in such new technology?
Can anyone confirm if HP Support is correct? I have the guy second guessing himself right now and he asked for serial number to try and find documentation to support his claim. I may have to RMA this beast and start searching for a laptop that has SATA II because that is the main reason I wanted a laptop! For the SSD to WOW me!
Thanks in advance for your thoughts, input, and effort you may put into this!
WWW2000
UPDATE:
Otay. Now I understand why all the reviews out there say what they say about HP support. Makes you feel like you carried your new puppy into an auto garage to learn about it. WRONG people, wrong place!
Can anyone who knows english and knows about computers please tell me why the ... why HP would be retarded and put Sata 1 in this killer laptop? Do they really enjoy upsetting their customers? All I kept getting for that supervisior was "you computer customized and you hard drive you choose sata 1"
I bought it directly from HP.com so I could have everything in it that you may not get from a retail store. She couldn't seem to grasp that nowhere on hp.com does it let you know if you get sata 1 or sata 2. Option not offered and it SHOULDN'T be. It should automatically be sata 2! Sata one was like so 1998!
Sorry for being so upset. I just want a killer SSD to make this beast all it should be and HP is telling me it's not going to happen. Do I need to start an RMA? Or can someone confirm that I can get read speeds of 230 from that SSD I want?

Hi,
Many owners(those who can afford it) of the dv7t series are putting OCZ agility and vertex drives in to replace their SATA hard disk.
I have no doubt that the speed of the SSD disk will wow you even if it isn't SATA2. Think about restart times of 58 seconds!

erico

PLEASE HELP ME! THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ALMOST A MONTH NOW!
Everytime I go on itunes with my internet motem connected it shuts down my computer. It works fine if I have the internet off and no ipod plugged in, but as soon as i put my ipod in or use itunes with internet it shuts down and restarts my computer. I went to www.apple.com to see if i could just update the itunes and see if that works, but everytime i click on download itunes 9.2 it asks me to install it. Does this mean my old itunes with all my music will be erased??? please please help me. thanks
Many thanks, Hammer.

You've got a problem with the drivers for your ATI Radeon video card. It's a bit odd to see that associated with being connected to the internet, but I've seen it cause blue screen crashes when an iPod is plugged in before.
Did the video card come installed in the PC when you bought it? If so, head to the Sony website and check to see if they have any updated video drivers for your particular model of Vaio (and particular model of video card).
If you've added the video card yourself to the Vaio, head to AMD and check to see if there's updated drivers there for your model of video card.
If you're already up to date on the drivers, or updating the drivers doesn't help with the crash, try reinstalling the video drivers.
Does updating or reinstalling the video card drivers help with the crashes? -
Please help me transform this C++ code to java code....
guys...please help me transform this C++ code to java code....please try to explain the code..thanks
[program]
#include <stdio.h>
#define ALIVE 1
#define DEAD 0
#define SZ 33
int stschk (int ,int );
main()
int s[SZ][SZ], i, j;
for (i=0; i<sz; i++ ) s[0] = DEAD;
for (j=0; j<sz; j++ ) s[0][j] = DEAD;
s[0][1] = ALIVE;
for (i=0; i<sz-1; i++) {
for ( j=1;j<sz;j++ ) {
s[i][j] = stschk(s[i][j-1],s[i+1][j];
if(s[i][j-1]==ALIVE) printf("*");
else printf(" ");
printf("\n");
int stschk(int s1,int s2)
if(((s1==DEAD)&&(s2==ALIVE))||
((s1==ALIVE)&&(s2==DEAD))) return ALIVE;
else return DEAD;Being picky, that's not C++, that's C. Standard headers in C++ dont' have .h after them, loop variables are scoped with the for, you use constants rather than #defines, etc..
C and C++ both don't initialise arrays by default; you'd have to write an initialiser to get it to zero out the array:
int s[sz][sz] = {};gcc will insert a call to memset to zero the array.
If the author was assuming that the array was zeroed out, there would be no point zeroing the first row and column.
The code reads values which haven't been initialised. If you mark such values explicitly undefined, and change the program to report an error when undefined, then you get several cases where the program makes such report.
So either it' s a primitive random number generator (some random number generators use uninitialised memory as a source of randomness), or it's buggy, or it's processing undefined data and throwing away the result. Either way, it cannot be directly be ported to Java if the undefined values (which are limited to a small area of the ouput) are significant. -
My iphone is at tech service and since it is in guarantee period most probably they will give a new one.Thats why I want to deactivate or sign out my apple ID from that Iphone. Please help me, what shoud I do?
Wow... you seriously over paid for an iPhone.
That probably explains why you have/had no clue you were purchasing a locked device and think it's an Apple problem to get it unlocked. -
Question
I am not able to launch FF everytime i try to open it, it says FF has to submit a crash report,and restore yr tabs. I even tried doing that and the report was submitted too, but still FF did not start, and the problem still persists, please help me solve this issue
'''(in English)'''Hi Danny,
Per my understanding that you can't get the expect result by using the expression "=Count(Fields!TICKET_STATUS.Value=4) " to count the the TICKET_STATUS which value is 4, the result will returns the count of all the TICKET_STATUS values(206)
but not 180, right?
I have tested on my local environment and can reproduce the issue, the issue caused by you are using the count() function in the incorrect way, please modify the expression as below and have a test:
=COUNT(IIF(Fields!TICKET_STATUS.Value=4 ,1,Nothing))
or
=SUM(IIF(Fields!TICKET_STATUS=4,1,0))
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.
Regards,

My icloud activation lock is on my iphone, which requires an activation login to access the homescreen, but when i log in with the apple ID on the phone, it says the apple ID is not meant to unclock this iphone 5 ios 8.0.2. please help me solve this.
Yes the phone belongs to me. It was purchased from United Kingdom Vodafone to West Africa, i had to factory unlock to use any sim in it. so it belongs to me. I did the activation myself, now after updating my iphone to the latest update, it required a user id and password to activate the phone, but anytime i enter the details, it tells me the user Id is not correct but the password is correct..

<Edited By Host>Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic app and then re-downloading the app from the app store.
You can re-download content purchased from the app store using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the app store using the purchased option which is revealed by tapping the updates option at the bottom of the screen of the App store app on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

And Google chrome just keep loading the page for hours and nothing is appear on its browser. But safari and firefox working absolutly fine.
In addition, I have reboot computer as well but it never worked. Please help me in this occasion.
Eagerly waiting for your response on this issue.
Best Regards,You need to upgrade your copy of MS Office. You're using a version that is 8 years old (at least). You can buy Office 2011, which will work. You could also get a copy of Pages from the App Store, which is cheaper and will open Word files (though not perfectly). Or you could get a free Office clone, like OpenOffice or LibreOffice.

I had already update mi new factory unlocked iPhone 4S to iOS 5.1.1 and I still having problems with "invalid sim". I'm from Argentina and here we don't have official service. PLEASE HELP ME, WHAT CAN I DO??? In Argentina is too expensive an iPhone 4S. Please I need help to continue believing in Apple. Thanks a lot. If anybody speak spanish better.
Was it purchased from an official Apple Store, not a reseller? Only Apple Stores sell official factory unlocked phones. The others sell hacked to unlock phones, and the unlocking is unstable.
Try these steps, as needed:
1. Reset phone - press both home and on/off buttons for at least 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears.
2. Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
3. Replace SIM card (and reset network settings again)
4. Restore Phone in iTunes using a backup
5. Restore in iTunes as new, without using a backup -
I have a problem with my iphone 4. My 3G always stays activated but I lose my network signal. The bars all get lost and I'm not able to receive / send sms, mms or phone calls. Could you guys please help me fix this problem? Ios 5.1.1
I haven't gotten a new sim card because the problem has been presenting itself in various cards not only mine. So far, all I've done is reset my network settings.
Last night, I turned off the 3G tab and it had all the signal bars. Today, I did the network reset and it's working apparently. But like I said before, previously the bars just disappear and the iphone only has the 3G activated.
