"Hewlett-Packard customers are up in arms about a major glitch affecting the company's Core i7-based PCs. A HP forum containing a shedload of gripes about the technical cockup - that some suggest may have been caused by a defective motherboard - runs to over 100 pages. A Reg reader told us that HP's line of Intel Core i7 CPU-loaded computers were locking up, freezing and regurgitating blue screens of death. He added that the vendor's Elite Pavillion Series appear to be particularly hampered by the nasty glitch."
It's sometimes hard to tell when a technology problem is wide-spread, because people with the problem tend to complain loudly while people without the problem quietly go about their business...but this seems like a legitimate issue with HP's Core i7 systems. Any Digital Home Thoughts readers bitten by this problem?
