This is getting unreasonable. This product (acer aspire 5750g) has been selling in whole australia now, but me, as the first batch buyer (which the chipset is deemed to degrade over time until malfunctioning), has yet to receive any news to replace the chipset. From acer's website it iss stated that affected users can choose to swap their laptop with the new batch laptops which the chipsets are functioning perfectly.

All my friends in Malaysia has already got their motherboard repaired or whole notebook swapped. If I am not proceeding my studies here, I would have gotten mine replaced last month.

This is already my 5th time sending question regarding this issue (including 2 which are completely ignored), and ever since March, I've always been asked to wait. Is acer planning to delay their users until the warranty expired hence they do not have to repair it for free?

Truly dissapointed user, Tony.

disturbed.. by acer in malaysia wanting to charge 700 ringgit to fix my bro's 5750
bsod, oni happen once..
confirmed, 2nd batch.. in fact i brought the lappy to a store in the city and said will contact for me..(nvr happen)
going to homebush this 27 june..to ask about the motherboard.. and quote the fix price of screen..(100aud for 1 screen seen in uk inc shipping-but will void warranty)

i checked to law for aus of customer product dissatisfaction, we are and shud be able to switch our defective(manufacturer fault) product even though the warranty had void
also saw the old batch of the 5750 on sale in dicksmith based on 540gt 1gbvram. i questioned, they no comment..
