problem

use the window 7 instead and you dont need to install drivers.the windows 7 will install everything even the accelerator.you dont need to beg hp for the drivers. i already tried it myself.it ran really fast compared to vista and xp.

I've been using win7 since beta release with xp drivers originally. due to having sled 10 as standard! bought win7 at release and didn't need to install any drivers all installed from disc or online update. runs reasonably fast it does what i need it to do at a speed acceptable to me. these aren't full blown PC's they are smaller units which work alongside main pc's. I have no problems with sleep mode watch youtube videos in window not fuul screen and have watched dvd's when working away from home. this is a great piece of kit for what I need it for.

I you don't want to get frustrated and feeling sorry you bought it, better don't by the 2133. I have one and I realy regret that I bought it.
It looks nice thats the only thing. It preforms worse then a win98 desktop I have and HP did not want to help at all.
I bought it with Vista, when I contacted HP in one country they said it only runned on linux while in the country where i worked they admitted that Vista wasn't good on the 2133 and I better downgraded to XP. Which I had to buy myself. I have the 2133 since april this year now and if I didn't spend so much money on it(extra because of Vista) I would have allready placed it under one of the catterpillar D8's here at my worksite

Yup, tried that and it didn't help

Tried the newest Vista driver from VIA Arena right off the bat, and then rolled back to HP's Vista Driver. They're just not compatible yet unfortunately.

If it isn't sleeping, then it is most likey a video issue – down load the VIA driver, and don't use the inbox VGA driver. I found that it will also restore the glass effects.
