hi mixy,
thanks for the update. i am also happy to know that you got it replaced and had the new one resolved.
anyhow i find it strange that you got two different brands sharing the same problem. this is kinda weird since these are brand new. i get this impression that they sold these with a known existing problem. so this really puzzles me unless of course you reinstalled the operating system (from Vista to XP) then that would at least clear that out. funny because common idea of a brand new system is that it should be working (NO PROBLEMS) right out of the box.
