haaaa.. u ask astria tongue.gif have u google as alternative?

use K-Lite Codec pack... standard version is gud enuf...

when installing, untick the codec for mkv files, this will use the codec in Media Player Classic instead, then u can get GPU acceleration...

i wanna ask...how can i change the gpu bus to 16x??mine rite now only run 8x.. is it b coz wrong driver???
*
i guess, that's 1 of the way to save cost also, by using PCI-E x8 only...

anyway, for a low end card like HD4570, the PCI-E is not the bottleneck, so dun worry too much abt that...

No, its limited to x8, there is no point going to x16 in the first place

I just got my K40ab from PC City in Kuching last week. Selling price at RM1999 and I add on another 2gb of ram which cost another RM85.

The laptop itself comes with a beg and a mouse other then the laptop and the power cable. PC City was kind enough to throw in a bunch of free gift - notebook cooler, another mouse, lcd protector, lcd cleaner, usb 4-ports hub and keyboard protector. The LCD protector given to me was a 14.4" but can't fit the K40ab cause K40ab screen ratio is 16:9...HD size I suppose. So if you are buying LCD screen protector, do take note of that.
I have a hard time get the HD4570 to show up also, tried a few drivers and it still don't work. CCC 4.5 will make it show up but it some how become extended monitor and I can in no way make it right. But at last I installed driver from ASUS international website and it is working fine. You can switch it with the power express thingy!

Hope this little bit does give you some help!  cool.gif

i second the fact that people would prefer laptops to come in freedos rather than preinstalled vista~~ That alone makes the laptop RM300 cheaper! Then again there was this time where a sales guy at a Lenovo shop tried to suck my blood by offering me an installation of pirated Vista for RM200 =.= He must be thinking that I'm some guy that came out of the jungles or something laugh.gif

As here is the K40AB own thread, therefore I wish to ask all "sifu" that same question what I posted in http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1104814,

I am now really interesting to get Asus K40AB, hahaha tongue.gif
I saw a brochure leaflet posted online about PC Show in Singapore (June 2009). They have K40AB with AMD Turion X2 RM-74 (2.2GHz, 800MHz, 1MB L2)/2GB RRR2/320GB HDD/ATI Radeon HD4570 with 512MB dedicated/DVDRW/BT/1.3 WebCam/WIFI/8-in-1 Card Reader

For detail.. http://www.bootstrike.com/itfairsg/pcshow2...ochure-leaflet/

Can I can this model in M'sia as well? How much is the price?
cuz what I know in M'sia only with AMD Athlon X2 QL64 2.1GHz 1MB total L2 cache. blush.gif

check whether it meets the requirements? or just do some tweaking and run on lower settings. smile.gif
