Compaq Presario V6000 is a series of widescreen 15.4' laptop computers, manufactured by Hewlett Packard. It includes the V6000z series based on AMDprocessors such as the mobile Sempron and the dual coreTurion X2, and V6000t based on Intel processors. There have been repeated reliability issues with the AMD based v6000z laptops. The fan algorithm in the BIOS was misconfigured causing overheating and damage to the wireless cards and the motherboard. In late 2007 HP extended the limited warranty to cover these defects. However that date is limited to 2 years from the purchase of the product. If the computer shows no faults until after that 2-year period Hewlett Packard will not repair it, despite the fault being of their own cause. In Australia this resulted in action by the Queensland Office of Fair Trading against Hewlett Packard for misrepresenting customers' rights, resulting in an agreed AU$3 million settlement.[1]
