I bought the K40AB-RM75 notebook last week for RM1999. Reinstalled machine with Windows 7 Professional 32bit. Everything ran fine. Played COD 4 on this machine for about 1.5 hrs. Then shut down machine to charge. Came back from dinner & found the machine dead. Pressed the on button & could hear the fan running but BIOS check could not even load. Sent back to shop the next day & got a replacement unit.

New unit experienced a auto shut down while installing Windows. The machine appread to go into sleep mode with mains power on. Had to off & on the unit to boot up again. Wasn't the heat as CPU was not under load. So went into BIOS & recallibrated the battery upon full charge. That seemed to have solved the auto shut down problem.

BTW - I'm very happy with the performance of this replacement machine so far. COD 4 was played with max detail & screen res at 1366x768. No overclocking or underclocking done on machine. Graphics was smooth & fast. I got no issue with the heat as machine didn't feel hot when playing the game after 3 hrs in a non-aircon room.

can always get a multi charger that has settings for different Volts & plug pins for most laptop brands. Cost between RM75 - 150 depending on brands. Bought mine in IT mall section 13, PJ.

Guys...just posted how to use 4MB RAM on Win 7 32bit OS on our ASUS K40AB here:
