  "Fatal defect"

  by uknair on August 17, 2005

  Pros: Excellent Specs - best value at $1300

  Cons: Fatal boot-up problems

  Summary: Bought this laptop from BestBuy after lot of research. I wanted a laptop with 1GB of RAM, less than 6.0 lbs, 15" bright screen and a DVD-RW drive. Sure enough, this one was the best value.
  
  For the first 10 days Laptop worked fine, but it was when I left it aside to check out the 'Hibernate' feature that the problem started. The Blue error screen showed up as the computer started to come out of hibernation, tried re-booting now the screen shows garbage. The boot process itself gets stalled at the very first step - POST check where screen displays 'TOSHIBA'
  
  Anyways, I promptly returned the laptop at BestBuy (after the expected long rounds of wrangling with their "customer associates")
  
  Maybe I was just unlucky to get a really bad unit. My advice to everyone who is planning on purchasing this:
  a) Test out all features of this laptop within the Return period
  b) Share your experience (especially if you face similar problems) with the Net community

  Thank you for submitting your feedback!
