Gateway 7807U & Couple of Questions...

I recently purchased a 7807u from Newegg and really like it better than the 4 Asus's that I tried (all refurbished, and all 4 had something wrong with them),

I have a couple of questions..

1) When plugging in the adapter, does anyone else's feel kind loose, and while moving the laptop around does it often come unplugged or get looser?

2) Who's the best seller on Ebay to buy the 1920 screen from.

3) This thing is a fingerprint magnet...what does everyone use to clean it with?

Thanks,

1) I havent heard anyone with a 78xx model complain about a loose power connector, but if its easy to fall out you might want to try and contact gateway for a replacement. It should fit pretty snug, i've never had an issue with mine (though i have a 68xx model)

2) no idea here, someone else will probably come in and answer this for you soon though

3) I use either a microfiber cloth or a slightly moist papertowel, but i rarely wipe it down, its a loosing battle reall

 

Oh? Speaking about that!!! Mines the power cord isn't loose but it's darn flimsy...the cord and power supply looks and feels cheap for such a nice laptop! About the 1920x1200 screen? I think gateway might have 1 for an upgrade! Some earlier versions have them! Fingerprint? Darn right! I hate all them prints everywhere sometimes I think that if someone steals my laptop they would also get my print and steal my ID! I use paper towels with a little water to clean them off. By the way anyone knows how to turn this darn Camera POP up Off!!!!!! It's annoying!!!!!!!!!

 

disable it in MSCONFIG

 

If you are looking for the 1920x1200 screen, i have the LG screen for sale in the NBR marketplace

 

Do what kamin said, its called "chicony"

 

Yes!!!!!!!!!! Thanks guys!!!!!!!!!! What a weird name for a cam! but it works!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here's a 5 for you!!! Hope that helps your REP Score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
