    yo, got a dv2188 for christmas and bloody love it, one issue ive had is that sound seems to skip a bit....some people have said on here that its just an itunes bug, but ocassionally it skips in other programmes too? any advice?

    it even happens when i dont have much running..

    thanks for any help
    nick


    also...one other quick question...the shortcuts on the desktop like "Register You're Notebook" and "My PC Choice", can i just delete them or do i need to locate them somewhere and uninstall some shiz?

    I'm not sure about the skipping, since I don't have any problems with it on my system. I'll let someone else with more experience fill you in on that.

    As far as I know, those are simply shortcuts to internet links. Deleting them should be all that's needed.

    I do suggest checking Add/Remove Programs in case they do have some sort of file in there.

    anyone got any advice on sorting all these shiz out? i have taken all the rubbish out via add/remove programmes but theres still a load more rubbish on the desktop and i'm sure just deleting it isnt the answer...

    thanks very much
