NVIDIA reaches settlement in class action suit affecting Apple, Dell, HP laptops

Crossing my fingers then... I filed mine on 1/12 for a replacement. Was beginning to wonder how long it would be or even if I would hear anything back.

 

Seeing as you've received the paperwork and sent yours in now, what ended up being the answer regarding the HDD being removed or left in?

 

Sorry for the delayed response. I just now discovered your question. There is another thread on this subject with more activity than this one. I posted information that answers your question over there a couple of days ago. Here is the link: http://forum.notebookreview.com/hp-...ow-almost-time-make-claim-74.html#post7185967

 

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIAIf you purchased certain models of notebook computers containing an NVIDIA graphics processing unit or media and communications processor, you could be entitled to benefits under a class action settlement.
The United States District Court for the Northern District of California, San Jose Division, authorized this Notice. This is not a solicitation from a lawyer.
• The settlement relates to the purchase of Dell, Hewlett-Packard (“HP”), and Apple notebook computers containing NVIDIA chips. It will provide for (1) replacement of the NVIDIA graphics processing unit or media and communications processor, which are referred to in this Notice as the “chips,” if you purchased a version of certain models of notebook computers manufactured by Dell, Inc., or Apple Inc. containing one of the NVIDIA chips, and your notebook computer is experiencing certain identified symptoms; or (2) a payment from a $2,000,000 settlement fund established for the purpose of providing reimbursements to persons who purchased a specified model of notebook computer, experienced certain identified symptoms, and paid to have the notebook computer repaired, although the amount of reimbursement may depend on the number of reimbursement claims received; or (3) a replacement notebook computer similar in kind and value, if you purchased a version of certain models of notebook computer manufactured by HP containing one of the NVIDIA chips and your notebook computer is experiencing certain identified symptoms, and if you return your eligible malfunctioning HP notebook computer once your claim is approved.

ARGHHH!!! My F500 started having this intermittent video going black problem about a week ago. Now it's happening almost all the time! NOW I find out there was a class action lawsuit about the problem that had a submission deadline of March 14th! (it's April 13th now)

What terrible luck!

Any suggestions?
