Just posting this to see if there are any easy fixes before I am forced to send it back.
I Bought an this Optimus laptop in August.
The problems i am having with it are very low sound. I have everything on 100% but some you tube clips I can hardly hear them. Same goes for Amazon movies the sound is very low. The laptop has a sticker saying Sound Blaster 5 Cinema on it but I have been unable to see any settings for this.
Mouse jumps as I click on it. If I am selecting something and I have the mouse on what I want to select, as I press the mouse button most of the time it will jump up and I have selected the one above it. I have tried the touchpad on various settings.
Error messages. every now and again I will get a blue windows error screen saying it needs to re-start with either error message irql not less or equal or system service exception. It will also just re-start too. Started it up this morning went on the net and the next thing I had a blank screen with the PC Specialist logo on it, and I had to log on again like I had re-started it.
Caps lock (this does my head in) I didn't think at the time of buying the laptop that it does not have a caps lock light. It is really annoying when I am logging into somewhere with a password, and you cannot see the characters, I don't know if I have caps lock on or not. I have to open another tab just to type something in so I can see if caps lock is on or not. A message will appear on screen, on some sites to say that I have put caps lock on or off, but these are only a few sites.
Anyone have any ideas on whether I should mess about and try and fix these issues or send it back? I don't really want to be without my laptop for a week or so.
Thanks in advance for any help.
