Notebook Review has a first look review of the HP Pavilion TX2000 and writes;

“The tx2000 now has that needed bump of power with its AMD Turion 64 X2 Dual Core processor. Browsing the Web and uploading pictures was an easy task. The Nvidia Go 6150 graphics will be a disappointment to some, but still work fine, just no hard-core gaming. This tablet was in need of a refresh and I can’t complain, especially for the price. ”

Does anyone know if it is possible to get the dvd drive for the pavilion to play all region discs? My laptop is set to Region 2. I am surprised that a computer drive is restricted in this way, as my desktop drives have never had any restrictions.

Does anyone know if the dvd drive can be chipped to play all region discs? All my previous laptops and desktops have played all regions so I am surprised that HP have restricted this laptop.

Here is what you need to do.

Shutdown the computer.
Remove the battery
Hold the on switch in the on position for 15-30 sec (I think 30 is over kill)
Replace battery
Reboot

I bet you have your keyboard back!
