has anyone got a copy ( that can be downloaded) of the user manual for my
old hp141t..cant seem to get the storage bity working..all else ok..i
think...
any repair mods whatso ever would be useful...

as screen intensity seems to be fading, needs to be up 3/4 before visable,
at full on is quite bright, but seems to be less after trying to get storage
to work!!just got a REALLY flooded bright screen when switching to storage,
but no trace, just like someone had thrown a bucket of luminous green paint
on the screen which slowly ran down the screen!!
any ideas??




thanks simon g0zen

there were so many of these built that you should be able to get a manual
from www.w7fg.com
