Now I realized that after I upgraded my K50AB to BIOS 213, it did not reboot after upgrading. While, I need to press Power On button to start it.
[Power express mode] It can only detected ATI 3200; it will say HD 4570 is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)
[dGPU mode] Totally insane, it can only detect Standard VGA Video Adapter... wordless
I am using GPU driver download from Asus website with the link from page 1.

Is there anyone can help me!!!! rclxub.gif rclxub.gif

i think it because u upgraded the BIOS.

or u install the mod incorrectly,if u using Win Vista or 7,try turn off your UAC & always run the software using administrator.

yes its normal for 32 bit operating system. if u really want to utilise all 4 gigs of ur ram. better change to 64 bit operating system. u need to reformat the hard drive. doing a clean install. because u cant upgrade from 32 bit os to 64 bit os. i dont think its a problem for u since ur lappy is new.

I'm using Win 7, surfing around 78-82C (room temp) ..doesn't spin FAST too..

I think this is the normal temperature if we use 100% CPU power without power saving (Cool & Quiet Off). Better to use Power4Gear Quiet Office or Entertainment mode for surfing. 50% Max cpu usage, less energy, -20'C less heat. icon_rolleyes.gif

Reserve Power4Gear High Performance mode for gaming or demanding application.
