wow, it happened like last time for DD2 where it will drop to RM90 and below? That time I'll get some...
and then sell it after it become expensive again..haha

Congratz... Coolermaster U2 works for me..

just now I read about N-series notebooks and ASUS SonicMaster technology...just want to know what are the differences between N82 series and N43 series??AFAIK both are 14"..

cant really get the 3 fingers tap for right click fuction on my A42JV, even i tried so many times, should I go to ask for change or enquire at the store i bought it from?

hi, got my A42Jv last week, and loving every inch of it..... but i hv few questions here.

1) i previously bought MS Office 2007 (original - for my previous laptop) last year and found out that the A42Jv is MS office 2010 (starter)..
do i need to uninstall MS office 2010 b4 installing MS office 2007? or i can just ignore and install MS office 2007 immediately?

2) I read previous posts that A42Jv HDD is a bit unreliable (failing suddenly, sounds coming frm the HDD), is this a minority case or is very common
among A42Jv owners? due to it would b a headache if my HDD failed suddenly and my data all lost

3) what is SMART? and is it built-in for the A42Jv? or i need to install 3rd party software frm the internet?

thank you.

regards

then Yes.. A42jv is the awesome gaming machine... nothing beats that

well, it's either this or that... no other choices at the same price range, unless u go to the area of rm3.5k-rm4k... there's Asus A42Ja and N43Jf...

as for my new HDD... well, initially u dun really notice any differences... it's only after continual usages then u will see it...

just now i go NCS and MMC melaka, they say dun hav A42JV anymore..
KL also have this problem?

they prefer me take Acer 5741G, i5 520M + Nvidia GT320M@2999..
GT320M izit better than GT335M?
they said GT320M GOOD becoz can boost to 2700MB bla bla bla.. then the new Acer 4741G with GT 420M is lousy than GT320M coz GT420M just boost up to 1027MB bla bla bla..
i'm noob on this stuff..
anyone can explain to me?
thx

Did you enable it? Mine works fine,

1) better uninstall it. i thought its not installed by default?
2) don't worry. U'll hear some weird sound and occasional slow down. Else, back up ur data always.
3) SMART i think its hardisk technology.

erm , as for the 3 fingers right click, how to enable it?
I din do anything thus i cant get anything with 3 fingers tap, but 2 fingers scroll is ok.

thanks gogo2,

yes, it is not installed by default. i installed it when i am playing around with the notebook, furthermore wouldn't want to install my license software within the 7 days 1 to 1 exchange period

still using my old notebook for work related stuff until i am certain my A42Jv is defect free at least within the exchange period.

and up until now, i am very satisfied with A42Jv, and don have much to complain... but will still keep a close watch on this forum just in case something major comes up..

3) downloaded CrystalDiskInfo for the SMART stuff, is that sw reliable?? (thanks to astria for the wikipedia link)

encl below

[attachmentid=1780430]

u must configure it at ELAN SMART PAD - property of smart pad - elan - options..
select what u like to b hav fun

should be GT425=GT335>GT320~~ GT425 rebrand from GT335 + DX11 ~~ ^^

GT425 or GT420???

GT425 = GT335 ~~ not GT420 ~~ ^^

GT 425M > GT 420M > GT 335M...
