comment Wireless card on HP laptop not working
It's definitely the connection between the router and the laptop. The bars indicating connection strength disappear for a second, replaced with by the empty bars with a plus sign indicating connections available, then the signal strength reappears as the connection picks up again. Oddly, the connection only drops for a second or so before picking back up.

Not really... I tried my main home network and it didn't work, as well as a neighbor's that I have access to, and neither worked. However, the neighbor's could just have been a range problem.

The machines you mention with the Ralink cards, I take it their wireless works fine?

But it's a really awesome laptop - I like it a lot. It took me a long time to find, and I don't want to go searching again. I agree with what you're saying, but if there's any other option, I'd like to look in to it first.

I wouldn't think using the alternate wireless card would void the warranty. It's clearly user-serviceable under the main panel, along with the HDD and RAM. Also, I bought the first unit online, then got the same model through replacement in-store

comment Harddrive disconnects when I try to write on it
I would try disconnecting and then reconnecting it to the motherboard - it could just be a loose connection.

comment Computer crashes with blank screen
thanks for your response, but I believe the problem was that my memory was going a bit wonky and just needed to be reseated (see my answer)
