Guys does the A42ja come with an i5 proc? I heard that the i7 will heat up quickly and is actually slower than the i5 when it comes to games

Damn Btw what do you guys think is the average lifespan for the a42ja? In terms of using it for games being released in the years to come

Wanted to get this, but the A42ja gpu is much superior. Damn hope asus makes a A52JA model soon

Have to la..The A has hd5730 while V is only 335M. It would be weird if it didnt. Btw so your satisfied with the laptop? Because im planning to buy the a42ja soon. But cannot find it in digital mall pj

I still haven't bought the A42ja yet.. Waiting for December. Hopefully digital mall pj has it since its the nearest authorized dealer for me lulz

I could.. But i feel safer buying from an authorized dealer since this is quite an expensive purchase

Yo guys most likely i will be buying the a42ja tomorrow.. So anything i need to know before i purchase it, like flaws or what

What model is it?

Yo guys i am now a proud owner of the A42JA

But looking at it there are so many bloatwares pre-installed. Can you guys tell me which one is save to remove?

Guys everytime i restart my laptop i lose connection to my router. My network is set to connect automatically. Does anyone have this same problem?

What is your wireless adapter? Is it AtherosAr9285? How do you update the driver and must i uninstall first?

Seems like i cant update WinLive essentials for this reason



What does it mean? I dont have any other version installed before this. I have an older msn version but thats it. Also i cant sign in to msn, keep getting this message to update msn before i can sign in.

ALLit hypermart..

Got, but that is from running the update the first time. It says i have ms silverlight and ms live stuff installed. Thats what i dont understand, if i didnt have prior versions where did the conflict come from?







Edit: this is all, the installation didnt finish due to that error

Ok thanks guys i uninstalled everything, then i downloaded the whole windows live straight from the MS website. But in the end i only installed the messenger and photo gallery



I havent tried out the bluetooth settings.. Although you should check out the e-manual provided. They have instructions on using the bluetooth as well as common problems and solutions. Most likely you need to update the driver

Hey guys does your adaptor get very hot when its plugged in for a long time? Mine was actually okay, then after connecting cooling pad and using it for some time i noticed the adaptor became much hotter than normal. This was during gaming. Is this normal?

One more thing, under my computer i have 2 hard drives; OS(C:) and Data(D:). Only the C drive is being used while the D drive is empty.. What the function of it? My C drive has much less space compared to D:

Mine was preset already.. I dunno how to partition a hard drive

About the heat.. So i guess the combination of gaming + the extra power needed for the cooling pad fans is putting strain on the adapter..

Hey is it save to insert and remove the battery while the laptop in plugged in to AC?

Hey does anybody have this software called Octoshape Streaming Services installed? I just saw this program but Im very sure i didnt install or download it. But when i checked under programs and features it shows that it was installed today.. Where the hell did it come from lol

How about a42ja users? Do you guys have this octoshape streaming services? Seriously dunno where it came from. Not malware i scanned already. Also from google this is a legit thing. But how did it suddenly apppear

Ya ive never heard of Jmicron lan before until i got the a42ja. I wonder why asus just didnt use intel wireless and lan
