when i overclock my gf...the core is 710mhz and memory 550mhz
if i go for 730mhz core and memory at 600mhz the laptop will be very slow lag and than blue screen...any other overclock share the information..
playing just cause2 nearly

You better keep the core low, around 700MHz or even stock 680MHz at 1.1V, with 600MHz memory, the HD4570 really starving for memory bandwidth because of the slow DDR2 memory it uses

hye all, wanna ask about my asus k40ab,
why i cannot change resolution in DOTA/warcraft 3?
max resolution only 1024x768x32. moreover there are black sidebar at screen,
how to make it full screen? no black sidebar?

thx..

google for registry fix

There's already a solution for this if you care to google for it...it won't be at native res rather then you stretch your screen to match the 1024x768 res, so the bad thing is all your character will be fatter ..

thx all..

seen a refresh of K50A in Amazon...

K50Af, Turion Dual Core M520 + HD5145 DDR2... US$600...

too bad can't find any here with good gpu.. even the 15" is hardly found..
just bought the intel gmx5400.. coz amd just left 4200 series..

k40ab/k50ab is the great bargain so far.. latest gpu just make the lappy more expensive..

hi guys
i wanna ask whether the fan bug is still working with the latest bios and ccc 10.4 ?
THX.

i think the fanbug not effected by the ccc but if u update your bios,then the bug will not work.

sifu pls clarify this.

owh i see...
i wonder which bios revision still can trigger the fan bug.
thx for the reply.

Since no one replied, why don't you dig this thread, or V1. I think it mentioned somewhere. There is search function within the thread to find it faster

so far i open my back cover for few day..the temperature drop 10deg for normall surfing use...under the laptop got my notebook notepal cooler...
i just wan ask does need worry the dust effect the laptop??

If the dust clog up the fan then yes, clean the HSF with compressed air, blow it from the back of the laptop. The dust usually clog on the fins close to the exhaust vent on the rear. If possible work in a clean environment, and clean your laptop cooler as well

hey any1 try the new ubuntu 10.4 on the lappy..wanna try install two os in my lappy...currently window7 nw...is it ok?need how much big space?and guide?

this is amazing..hope they bring it here.

Q1: if we install windows 7 on this machine, do we have to install all Asus proprietary drivers and manuals?...or we can just use windows 7's ones?..
u know, like wireless and all those touchpad stuff...
so, is it that we MUST use asus' driver fr their webpage?..or can we use windows 7 ones?..

Q2: pls advise me.
I have yet to own this laptop and is wondering if it is too much trouble to troubleshoot all this things. (judging by the long details and post on the 1st page from Najmods)
is it a very troublesome laptop?..where, u know, u gotta tweak all this and that..

thank you for your attention.

1) You could just use the W7 driver, I never install those driver. Except for the ATK driver for shortcut key

2) No, obviously not. I just love to tweak stuff to its max. I don't like things stock, and I don't like to give little info when writing

did any1 face graphic card overheating after the gpu overclock even with the fan mod?
i set the core at 700 and memory at 580 which is the minimum.
beside that, i also checked my gpu using gpu-z, the fan speed is only 30%.
any way to increase the fan speed ?

sure will over heat...i open my back cover...
go way to increase fan speed...mode through a cable connect power from usb
try at your own risk!
