    Hallo to all
    I've got some strange problems with this laptop i never seen before (i am not completely IT virgin, but even prof, too). Soo.....
    Suddenly, without any reason, laptop started to freeze while switching into sleeping mode, attempt to restart or turn off. Worst -force that damn thing to turn on takes usually around 20 minutes or more, Travelmate still restarts himself around and around untill the windows logo appears on the screen, and even that is not victory yet. First logon is usually without drivers for graphic and sound (attempt to restart, freeze, whole circus show again), then, second logon brings at least drivers for graphic and third restart sound, finally.
    I personally suspect power supplement, seems to me this have something to do with whole problem/ when travelmate is plugged on, is loading time usually about ten minutes instead of half hour, but is not rule.

    If anyone can give me an advice, i'd really aprecciate it.
    And sorry for my clumsy english.

    In order to eliminate posible software issues , a good idea are to launch erecovery , and load factory default configuration .
