try turning off your laptop wifi...

then turn it on again...
sometimes i kena like that.... it just won't connect....
but after restart the laptop's wifi...ok already...

so you no need to restart laptop la... try this method first..... if next time happen again....

QUOTE(coolboy @ Aug 8 2010, 12:20 AM)
hi guys...just bought myself an A42JV at PC fair today.....great deal i would say with RM2899 with upgrade to 4GB RAM.
I have a noob question.....the tech there told me to charge 5 hours...but what i did was insert the battery and plug in the power and use the lappy for few hours.....then i suddenly realize that i should'nt have turn it on while charging....will the affect my battery performance in the future sad.gif

disappear...even when i tried to click on the arrow button to reveal the hide icons..it's not there also....

i will try to search for restore default icon behaviour....

thanks...

QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Aug 9 2010, 03:21 PM)
Disappear or hide?
Can try right click the taskbar, properties, customize, then click "turn system icon on or off", then press "restore default icon behaviour"...
or perhaps check on the power4gear, maybe got settings to hide the battery icon when charged full....

i play DOTA... my graphics is 310M only...i never update driver...no problem...play smoothly....

is it because of 335M problem?

QUOTE(murv90 @ Aug 11 2010, 12:13 AM)
blink.gif why so many people having problems with nvidia driver and dota and some other games? i haven't face any problems yet. *touchwood*. only the laptop gets pretty hot while gaming. so i do it in a aircond room. biggrin.gif

additional game tried DMC4, Splinter Cell Conviction and COD MW2. smile.gif will upload SC's if needed.

Oh, then it's so terrible sad.gif
when i running warcraft 3, the mouse is little hard to move, not as smooth as desired :@ i doubt the benchmark for this 310m is better than a 8600GT?

i play dota smooth...but how i know it's using gfx card or built in graphics?
when i check my nvidia panel, warcraft.exe is inside the list....means by default sure use graphics card?

QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Aug 15 2010, 12:09 AM)
Seems like the dota/warcraft 3 is lagging with optimus is common problem...

hmmm...black screen a while...i recall this happening....but how long is the black screen? i end up force shut down after the black screen cause i see no activity at all on hard disk....

and no... after masuk windows...destop view....then you can see ur mouse cursor...and after that just freeze..cannot move at all....

actually asus's official website does not recommend the latest driver from nvidia...it's 257.xx version...


QUOTE(eugenechiuu @ Aug 21 2010, 06:37 PM)
are you sure system crashed??
cause after i updated last time, it had a black screen for quite a while when logging in windows but turned normal after a bit
