Hi there, I saw your post and noticed that you have the HP Pavillion DV4000. I just got the same notebook about a week ago, and I've been having an issue, and was wondering if anyone else with the same notebook was having the same problem. I noticed that when typing, especially in MS Word or in email programs, that the window or screen will start moving up and down ocassionally. Have you noticed this happening on your computer as well?
It's extremely annoying and I don't know if there's a way to make it stop, or if I have to return the notebook..
Could you let me know if you have encountered the same problem?

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone has ever come up with a fix for this. I'm having the exact same Expanded Memory problem on my HP Pavillion dv4000 laptop. When I check the memory at the command line, I get:
Code:
C:\>mem /cConventional Memory : MSDOS 12704 ( 12.4K) KBD 3296 ( 3.2K) HIMEM 1248 ( 1.2K) HASPDOS 336 ( 0.3K) COMMAND 4736 ( 4.6K) DOSX 34720 ( 33.9K) FREE 112 ( 0.1K) FREE 598000 (584.0K)Total FREE : 598112 (584.1K)Upper Memory : SYSTEM 229360 (224.0K) DOSX 128 ( 0.1K) MOUSE 12528 ( 12.2K) MSCDEXNT 464 ( 0.5K) REDIR 2672 ( 2.6K) FREE 1920 ( 1.9K) FREE 34000 ( 33.2K) FREE 46448 ( 45.4K)Total FREE : 82368 ( 80.4K)Total bytes available to programs (Conventional+Upper) : 680480 (664.5K)Largest executable program size : 596048 (582.1K)Largest available upper memory block : 46448 ( 45.4K) 1048576 bytes total contiguous extended memory 0 bytes available contiguous extended memory 941056 bytes available XMS memory MS-DOS resident in High Memory Area
Running XP Home Edition, SP2. The crazy thing is, I have a few friends that have been trying to figure this out too. No one who is running XP Home can get Expanded Memory enabled, but anyone who is running XP Pro has no problem at all....
Any thoughts or suggestions?
