den how only will overload? ^^

in normal circumstances even when u stress all hardware to the max, the adapter would not overload...

if it does it means the adapter itself is faulty...

Why is everyone obsessed with X42Jr? By all means, it's NOT a laptop for gaming because the GPU is too weak....

A42JP beats X42JR far far...

becuz it's quad core??? laugh.gif

ppl see quad core get excited liao...

Any i7 and 14-inches of asus laptop on market currently?
Budget of rm3k or below.

i think Compaq CQ42 is worth considering, if u re not particular abt GPU...

rm2k for AMD Phenom II x4 N970 and Radeno HD6370m

Hey guys need help here..i juz bought an Asus x42jr (i7,ati 5470)
it came with wins7 home preimum 64bit os,
after a week++ using it i found it hard to use the 64 bit os since everything is in 32bit..wanna install nba2k11 also hard,use compactibility as xp also cannot play sumore Asus web driver such as the azure bluetooth cannot install coz the system have problem with x64 bla bla bla..

so i'm planning to reformatt and install win7 Ultimate(is it good?)..

so before i reformatt , what shud i do?i heard that we are supposed to back up our newly bought laptop through dvds (which dvd is better,dvd-r or dvd-rw?since i'm not gonna rewrite the backup cd so it is ok if i backup using dvd-r?)
*
the backup will still be in x64...

anyway wat kind of problem are u having? in my over 3yrs of using x64 (since Vista), i ve never have compatibility problems... MS did a pretty good job on 32-bit emulation...

well, honestly true too~ still my dad budgets around RM2500... the XPS 15 is already almost RM3000.

i like ASUS's warranty more though, 2 years international.

you have any idea about the LCD quality on the ASUS N series models? and bout the webcam having slow framerates in video mode???
*
using N81Vp (same era as N51)...

i would juz say the LCD is at most decent... it's fine for normal use and gaming (no ghosting at least), but it's no where near good... as a multimedia laptop i am fine with it...

if u want LCD quality it's Dell or Apple...

LOL..i'm using x42J buying it for 2.5k..i go to the asus website to download the driver for my bluetooth (my bluetooth shown error device cannot start code 10) then after downloading the driver (in x64 windows 7 of coz) it said compactibility error..[make sure either ur system is running x32 or x64 bla bla bla]..i'm sure that i've dled the correct driver for my os..
i think windows 7 Home premium suck anyway..many compactibility errors..maybe Winsdows 7 Ultimate x64 is better..i wonder..even cannot install windows virtual PC (for XP mode) properly.

p/s : anyone using windows ultimate x64 here?how about ur asus driver?no problem to install?
*
i ve tried both Win7 x64 Home Premium and Ultimate before, frankly the driver installs the same way...

ve u tried letting Windows grab the driver from Windows Update instead?

opppss..it is update driver from the device manager?
owh..there are a hack that make it possible for win7 home premium to install and execute xp mode,however i guess it unstable(since it is not made for win7 home)
*
well, wat u can try is, Uninstall the driver from device manager, then scan for new hardware, and let Windows do it's work...

make sure the Bluetooth is switched on when u do that...

Ah. I see. Thanks~!

By the way, which type of RAM does the A42JV use? I've been fiddling around with the System Information and it doesn't show anything...
*
u'll need other programs to detect it... try CPU-Z, it's free...

btw it's DDR3 1066MHz...

I saw one laptop at pc fair, the model name Is a52jv, the LCD housing is glossy black but the housing around the keyboard just like hp pavillion agento blush colour . But I read online the a52jv is glossy black for the LCD cOver and around thr keyboard. I'm wondering is They put the wrong model name or that one is import/refurbish/ etc ?

Hi All,
I have been following this tread since before CNY... Like many of you waiting for the SB N series... N43SL.

Asus finally released Mar~Apr Product Guide yesterday... but without N43SL....  cry.gif

Only got N53SV-SX255V/SX256V. Selling at RM2799.
I5-2410M
No USB3.0

with remark *Available soon at end of March.

So where is N43SL....? sad.gif
*
import? laugh.gif

that wat i did... Singapore never sell N81Vp, but got N51Vg instead...

bloatware = all the unnecessary programs that come pre-installed with a new computer...

Asus has a few useful bloatwares, like Power4Gear Hybrid, Splendid display... ExpressGate is useful when i did not ve a netbook... but others like Live Update is juz crap... i only kept the first 2 i mentioned... the rest went into recycle bin... (or more like, i never install them after format) laugh.gif

it's a personal preference... try out each of the program to determine urself if it's useful or not...

for me i only fine P4GH and Splendid good enuf to keep...
