cq40-125AX owner here. No cotton coming out at the speaker grille but I'm having a battery problem. Now wnt even last 30 mins. When I boot it says there's a battery capacity problem. I jst passed the warranty 2 months ago. What should I do? Please advice

Interested on buying this battery http://www.batteryupgrade.com/shopBrowser....roupId/30794758

8800mAh but dunno whether its advisable to do so. So expensive summore.

Try recalibrate your battery. Drain your battery till near 0 and then recharge to max.

CMOS battery normally can last 3-5yrs. Don't this it's hardware problem. What do you mean by clock getting slower?

nothing to do with the cmos batt(if really so, DIY the batter less than rm 10) . check the Windows Times service

CQ40 115AU user here. My lappie fan I suspect, so loud now. If I play PES2010 or WCIII it'll emit the sound. And produce heat also. If play WCIII got lag a bit. Whats the problem actually? You guys help are much appreciated. notworthy.gif

its normal for the fan operating as the IGP keep on generate heats which required by the apps, no worry.

lower down the game resolution settings will do.

Seems quite terrible that it can't play WCIII in its best mode. Even Intel's onboard graphic is a lot better in a way.

Previously it didn't have this kind of problem. My laptop is going to be 1 year old soon. So the only cause for temperature rise is dirty fan.

Btw, I've seen a thread teaching how to clean the fan... Does anyone know?
