hmm.gif So does it mean that my Acer 5750G is not affected since it is using HM65 chipset?

According to this, it seems HM65 is also affected. Maybe those who have already bought Sandy Bridge laptops will be able to claim warranty when it fails.

To identify those laptops that have problems, look at the chipset number. For example, H67, HM67 etc. etc.

I believe this will teach me a lesson not to buy any new release laptop with new chipset so fast, as anything can goes wrong in this world. >.<

Well, to play safe then don't buy laptop that is just released or the chipset. I heard normally 1st batch got issue, which mean 1st batch user were kind of like white mouse to them.

Lol, 2.1 is good already in a laptop, not to mention that u have an extra 5.1 surround system in your siggy.

Lol, when is the deadline for lenovo to refund?
hmm.gif Don't know if it is the game settings, or heat or the GPU that causes it.
Split Second is still okay but sometime will lag a while and need to wait for it to respond then only can cont the game.
I'm thinking of refund too, but just wondering how long it takes.
I need to use it in my college to do quite a lot of stuff.
