I purchased a Compaq Evo N600c last year. I had problems with the hard drive burning out. Compaq sent me three hard drives before I decided to take a closer look at the notebook. I discovered that the fan was not running during start up, so I called Compaq and they sent me a box to ship the item to their IT department. Now they are saying that my warranty doesn’t cover water damage. Well I have been looking around for answers and discovered that condensation occurs without proper ventalation and cooling. Therefore, I believe that condensation built up due to a faulty fan. I just want to know more about condensation build up, cooling systems, and proper ventalation concerning laptops with a pentium 3 or 4 processor.
