HP ZBook Fury 16 G9 Mobile Workstation PC (609L6AV)
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I bought a brand new HP Zbook Fury 16 G9..  It consistently freezes.. Sometimes it won't freeze for up to an hour from the morning boot from sleep mode. I have been off and on with tech support for 6 months..  I have done everything they asked of me multiple times.  Updating software, drivers, anything that had an update got one, a couple of times.. Complete diagnostics several times.. Nothing shows up.  When it freezes it stays frozen until you manually do a hard reset. It does not show any error codes except for the hard reset..  It freezes multiple times every day, that I got so tired of using it. I am using my old zbook g3 (win 7 pro) which by the way has worked flawlessly for well over 6 years. Never frozen once..  Which is why I bought another zbook because my old one is still reliable! 

 

This one complete opposite.. Also on top of the constant freezing, this new computer makes me feel sick.  I have over $6,000 worth of Radio frequency radiation testing equipment as well as magnetic and electric field measurement testing.. This is high end building biology equipment.  I am sensitive to EMF's after the damage done by long term exposure. We disabled our wifi about 8 years ago and hard wired everything.. Anyhow the new zbook g9 kept making me feel sick and wifi was completely disabled and I ran my normal tests.. No rf or abnormal electric or magnetic fields coming from the laptop.. 

 

Then I am thinking why do I feel sick after 30 minutes to an hour on this.. After further research I ran across PWM Pulse width modulation and people have some of the same symptoms as they did with Radio Frequency or EMF poisoning. 

 

The brightness level should be regulated by DC Current not a PWM module that causes severe damage to your eyes and other weird things..  I believe this computer has freezing problems probably because of windows 10 and/OR the Artificial intelligence, and these weird software that is too nosy.. 

 

I do not believe that we people should be forced into technology just because we want a computer to go on the internet..  I am still using Windows 7 pro on my old zbook and it works great..  Why is it every time we are forced into "new technology, new software.. We suddenly have all these problems?  Spyware, bloatware..  Poisonware.. Forced updates, forced software?  We were much better off without this technology.. 

 

I want a New computer with windows 7, NO PWM, No Rf radiation, no forced updates or software..  Allow me to keep or delete what I want on the computer or what is running in the background.. 

 

What a disaster..  Imagine spending 3,000 on a computer that is completely under your control, that doesn't freeze and works for you instead of against you.  Is that too much to ask?
