QUOTE(Adin @ Feb 7 2011, 11:21 PM) I used the Asus bios update software in windows. Then restart and everything done... the software called aflash2. The latest bios I updated is 2.03 (for G73JW)... Never use Winflash, as the chances to fail the BIOS update is very high, according to NBR. Better use Ezyflash in the BIOS. QUOTE(DoubleU @ Feb 8 2011, 12:00 AM) they changed it, but that didn't solve the problem... it was window's fault... can't install the driver correctly.... so i just did a reformat and reinstalled windows... How is it now?

hi guys,
I've installed GTA 4 and GTA-EFLC, both pirated =x. I did all the stuff for pirated games like crack and stuff but the game still crashed.
Just wondering if you guys updated the driver for GTX460m from Nvidia website.

Original games are not as expensive as you think.

This is for sure the hardware problem, and it might be the motherboard itself. Or the problem with the mini pci-e slot. The only way to solve this is to send back to Asus, maybe the one at IMBI plaza. This post has been edited by Adin: Feb 10 2011, 04:23 PM

Better put back everything that come with the laptop. Especially in Australia.. But you shouldn't worry right since the laptop come with genuine windows 7 HP...

Dang it. My notebook auto shutdown while I'm playing my FIFA game. It happened twice. This is the screen shot after the auto shutdown:
Dang high temp? The ambient room temp is as low as 10 -12 degree celsius only. Time to repaste? How about you guys' opinion? This post has been edited by Jeffrey1987: Feb 11 2011, 04:04 AM

IC Diamond 7 ? No need special thing if just want to use the rice grain method... If want to spread method, then something like a card ?
Maybe some isopropyl alcohol if the current thermalpaste become hard to remove..
