Well I don't like to speculate but if you replaced your HDD and the problem still occurs, it might be something affecting the laptop itself. But I think if it's a mobo issue, it might take 2 weeks+ to get it replaced.

should be less than 1 week if they have the stock with them.. mine took 1 week

Hmmm, could drop-outs cause his problem?

did asus stopped the culv laptops? will there be any sandy bridge culvs?

Asus doesn't really believe in CULV laptops anymore I guess. Even their U series are being equipped with regular notebook CPUs.

@lee. i have tried out the program. do i ss the results here or jus copy the description for you?

Screenshot would be better..
Unless everything is green ?

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

most of the time is red with yellow..

what does this graph mean?

Try disable the stuff mentioned there one by one, see which one reduces the yellow/red...
or try play song/HD movie while running the dpc checker...

so far.i tried disabling the wireless device, no more red and yellow..but with wireless most of the time is green too. occasionally red and yellow.

If its like that, try to install different version wireless driver...

actually after installing a fresh copy of win7, i didn't install the wireless driver from asus website. but now i uninstalled the driver, don't see any yellow and red spikes anymore.but the temp of my hdd is still hovering around 50.-.-

The harddisk temperature is considered 'normal' for A42J series, that is the main reason I sold my A42Je. I done absolutely everything to keep the thermal down but the temperature drop only after I remove the harddisk panel open and actively blowing fast spinning fan underneath it.

my adapter kong oredi... =_="
using adapter while raining and lightning...
any1 live in kuching? where to send this adapter ???
haish....

Hi Guys,

Some review on my new lappy (A43SV)



Spec:

i5 2410M (2.3GHz)
NVidia GT 540M (2GB)
4 GB 1333MHz DDR3
640 GB 5400R SATA
8x DVD
3 USB port (2 at right hand side and 1 at left)
1 HDMI port
1 VGA port
1 LAN port
Window 7 Home Premium (c/w Microsoft office stater pack)
2 years warranty


This is a CPU temp during play COD..Is it OK?

1) The packing weight stated in the packing box is 3.6 kg..so net weight may be around 2.5 kg
2) Can feel min heat at a right palm rest and no heat at left hand side area and keyboard area. May be because of it has been made from aluminum (it is quite good compare to others laptop that I use before)
3) comfortable with a keyboard and feel soft during typing.
4) The speaker is from Altec Lansing and the audio quality quite good (for me). Play a song with a max and no sound "pecah". (of course cannot compare with N series)
5) There is a little bit lag during play COD (few secs) then become normal. (COD set medium)
6) there is no button to on/off WiFi and Bluetooth..need to use Fn key
7) have 2 jack port (1x speaker and 1 x mic)

You should start getting rid of the bloatwares and update the Nvidia drivers. The driver update might solve your lag in COD.

any link for me to refer and study?
