    Has anyone been able to install XP fax services on either of these computers? I have tried with no success on both laptops using the XP files on the hard drive, as well as XP discs. Microsoft's site says the only reason it wouldn't install is a corrupt security database. Is HP sending these machines out with problems like this?

    cydeweyz (are you Hooked on Phonics?),
    I have Microsoft's fax services installed on my HP zx5078cl. I sent a fax just this morning. But keep this in mind: as soon as I purchased my notebook, I formatted the harddrive and reinstalled XP and just a few of the applications that came with the machine.

    Tell me why my notebook came with HP Bluetooth software installed even though there is no Bluetooth hardware adapter installed... Some times wierd things happen...
