I have an HP 1000TX laptop that came with Vista Home. In fact it seems to be designed for Vista because there are XP drivers that are unavailable. I have it set up as to dual boot XP / Ubuntu.
It is by far my most useful laptop to date - and I have had about 10 over the years. The problem I am having is that there is a power drain when I don't use it. If I go a full week without turning it on, it will not start. The battery is healthy because I use it at user group meetings for about 2.5 hours and it still has a charge after the meeting. I googled around but couldn't find anything that would help with this power drain. Any ideas? If I can't solve this, I will return it to Vista and use the Ubuntu CD when I want to use Ubuntu - which is all the time except for Quickbooks and logging into corporate networks.
