Yeah. I've installed/updated windows on a lot of computers, and HP/compaqs are consistently the worst to deal with. This specific model is a class of its own though. It takes several hours to get everything working on a fresh install. For some reason, the drivers only work if installed in a very specific order, which really doesn't make any clear sense. For example, installing the "media keys" driver causes five new hardware popups for some reason. It also has the bizarre fax modem/ HD audio thing that I never can get to work right. I've been working on that for probably two hours now and still haven't figured it out.
