Just a quick update this thread; it seems that the unit is defective (as suspected), so it's gone off for repair. On the plus side, so far, I have found HP/Compaq support to be most helpful and very responsive.
I guess that those who are thinking about buying a 1940/1945 can take heart at the lack of other reports of power problems; it looks like I got a rare bad one. As I mentioned in the original post, other than this (admittedly very bad) problem, I liked the 1945 very much, and am looking forward to the return of my repaired unit.
