hi! tks for the quick reply... i didn't know tat they had the warranty up to 5 years. i thought 3 years was the max. as for the 4th question, i was wondering whether you got the 8 cell batt or not. i mean the s series comes bundled wit a 6 cell batt, right? but they do have the 8 cell batt as well, if i'm not mistaken.

tks again! biggrin.gif

hi! i just got myself an s-series lappy. i have thre questions to ask here:

i) is there any silicon keyboard protector for the s-series like the one used apple mac?
ii) do i need to install a software to monitor the laptop's temperature/ heat level?
iii) if i want to upgrade the present 4gb ram to say 6gb or even 8gb, which ram should i go for?

hope someone can help me to answer these questions.

tks!

i) there is for old series, like my Z series, i have the silicon keyboard protector always on use. resulting to have new looking keyboard. as for the new one, i think it will have too, maybe difficult to find and take some time.
ii) its optional. i only run this kind of software on gaming once a awhile to measure the temp, so i can modify the nvidia profile (as in my notebook use nvidia, im utilizing the nvidia power option) to run at appropriate power output so the temp is reasonable. but if you are wondering about the temp your notebook especially running games, you can use it. its a guide and a reminder for you so that you will not forcing your notebook to work hard on high/red zone (temp reading 90 ~ 100c) for quite long hours.
iii) any ram would do provided you are using the same clock(800, 1066 etc) and type (ddr2, ddr3 etc).

tks for the tips.

i don't really use my notebook for gaming but i do use it long hours for word processing, music & surfing. can u recommend a good software to monitor the temp for the the s series?

err, i'm not really a tech savvy person. can u pls be more specific with the rams i.e. if i were to get kingston. which one am i supposed to look at?

tks again! biggrin.gif
