Hi Raul, Yeah, the laptop is a really nice one. I wouldn't have had to replace anything on this if the previous owners hadn't been so abusive to it, but I guess their abuse was what made it possible for me to offer them some cash for it used, and repair it myself for a fraction of it's actual value. Fortunately, buying from places like Ebay rather than Averatec direct saves me loads of cash there. Anyway, I have a USB numpad I use on it for using the W.E. mouse, and it works great except you can't see the display until my replacement one comes and gets installed. I would have installed the original Windows XP Home disk on it, but for the fact they didn't keep care of the disk and the install always locked up.
