    just go to accessories-->entertainment--> sound recorder to use the microphone to record and to chat there should be a setting on your messenger. The webcam, should have hp webcam program included or use windows movie maker to make movies lol.. (I have a similar computer)

    "512MB DDR2 System Memory (1 Dimm)"

    For windows vista...you need an upgrade lol...

    finger recognition u need to set up... and make sure u use u input the correct original fingerprint.. hehe
    anbd the laptop should've come with software for the webcam.. mine has a webcam toolbar hidden to the side... when u put the mouse near that area it comes out ... u could have a quick scroll around the screen to see if u hav that.. if not.. there shouldn't be too many apps install atm.. just hav a look through them all... lol

    just do video and audio setup and the camera and mic will do fine... I saw a Toshiba laptop with finger print sensing tech, (I bet this lil thing replaces the password when you log on to ur pc) the price is reasonably cheap too and here I am thinking of dumping the ol and go for the new lol...

    that so cheap.....
    it would cost more than $1100 pound if convert from my country.
    that is sure a dream laptop >_<
    if u ever felt ur laptop is getting slow, get 2x 2gb ram(but max is 3.5-3.8gb, the vista will detect if urs is 32 bit)
