[Resolved]  Hp — WORST SERVICE

I purchased an HP laptop, model no. dv 2910tx worth Rs 50000 on 21st October 2008 from E-Mart 4 u, Bhubaneswar.

My Laptop’s Configuration:
HP Pavilion dv 2910tx Entertainment Notebook, Centrino Core 2 duo 5750 2GHz processor, 3 GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce 8400M GS Graphics, 320 GB Hard Disk, Windows Vista Home Premium.

The laptop was working fine but it started becoming overheated within few minutes after turning on in first 15 days o[censored]se. I contacted E-Mart for you, the shop where I purchased the laptop. They told me that it is a hardware issue. And they told me to take it to HP Care. Then I took it to hp's authorized service centre Digital Care Pvt Ltd. located at Shahid Nagar, Bhubaneswar, Orissa. They kept my laptop for a month. Then after calling them so many times they told me that my entire motherboard will be changed and they replaced the entire motherboard and then when I got my laptop then again I faced the same problem after 5 days o[censored]sing. I was unable to play any games as the games were hanging in the middle and sometimes I got 6 displays on the LCD. Then this time I gave my laptop to another HP authorized Service Center R T Outsourcing, located at Bapuji Nagar, Bhubaneswar. There they kept my laptop for 17 days and again the motherboard was replaced. But again after 7 days o[censored]se I faced the same overheating problem. Still I am having the same problem. And now again I am not able to play any games on my laptop.
When I searched the internet about this problem then I found some articles like "Defective NVIDIA chips in HP and Dell Laptops". There were many people who faced the similar problem regarding this NVIDIA chip. When I asked about it then they just told that it’s not true.
Now my battery backup is just 35 minutes. Regarding this they told me that this is normal according to the results shown “HP battery check utility”.
Whenever I take my laptop to the service centre they tell me to do the “Complete Recovery”. Because of this I lose my data. If this happens always then what is the use of 320GB harddisk!!!
Now I have multiple problems with my laptop that are described below…
1. Overheating and automatically shutting down. The left part, including the hard-drive, of the laptop becomes so hot that one cannot keep his hand on it.
2. Battery backup is just 35 minutes even in power saver mode.
3. Fingerprint sensor is not functioning properly.
4. Inbuilt microphone is not functioning.
5. DVD writing is very slow (it takes almost 25 minutes to write a 4.7GB DVD with max. speed selected) and sometimes some error message comes like “Power calibration error”.
Again I contacted HP service centre “R T Outsourcing”, Bapuji Nagar, Bhubaneswar. They kept my laptop for observation for 3 days. Then after calling them they told me that there is no problem in the laptop. I am fully frustrated on HP’s service.

Not only me but almost everyone who has purchased this model laptops is facing problems. I am just wondering what will I do after my limited warranty? Please help me.

Finally I say, “HP’s SERVICE IS VERY VERY VERY BAD”

Warranty extension will not help because a consumer cannot go to the service center every time. The only solution is that HP should refund the money that I wasted on purchasing this laptop.

Hewlett Packard — WORST PRODUCT EVER

I bought HP Pavilion tx1000 note book in the july 2007 and after one and half year a had to change its motherboard. This has been a routine problem with the tx1*** series but the company is not willing to do anything about it. Above all service center in India refused to service saying this model is not serviceable in india. NEVER EVER OPT FOR HP. IT CAN NOT BE WORSE THAN THIS.
HP is the most worst laptop in India... for its performance just use your laptop for more than 12 hrs nonstop daily...after 6 to 7 days you will find what is the quality of the laptop...

your laptop speed will be reduced 3 times slower than new one...

Hewlett-packard(HP) — very bad service of hp care

I had submitted my laptop to HP service center at Service Center No.A-200;Okhla Phase-1,New Delhi for resolving my laptop problem not one time but four times . Its been a month haven't got my issues resolved and yet don't know when will the issues will get resolved . This caused me great problem,delayed me with my work and only i suffered because of the delay caused by HP. Since , i am physically hadicapped person , so it very difficult for me to go service centre again and again and i have to attend classes as well.
Do not go for HP or Compaq products. These are worst.
