Technical info for Pavilion 7880 (UK)

The following table is a near verbatim copy of the information provided at hp.com. My Samsung 208F CDRW drive has been replaced with a Liteon which works excellently whilst the Samsung never really worked well at all.

Also of note is that this page indicates that the mobo is likely to be a "Tahiti 2.x Asus A7V-VM: 7880(P3061A-ABU)" but that it requires a special HP BIOS to operate correctly.
