I guess I put this info here since I don't think a lot of people will buy 4743 series laptop, but this is Optimus specific problem.

Anyone have problems playing GTA IV with Optimus? Specifically missing texture? I got a fix. Create commandline.txt in GTAIV directory and put "–availablevidmem 8".

The number 8 is the multiplier of the VRAM you got, sadly GTAIV only detect integrated Intel HD even if it run on dedicated card so your VRAM is around 50-200MB at most, so using this it will multiply the VRAM so it detect you have more VRAM and so it won't have missing texture.

Surprisingly even GT 520M is capable of playing GTAIV at medium setting and native resolution! This is astonishing as previous HD5470 with nearly similar spec is not capable of playing it at more than 1024x600 low detail without crawling to a standstill. The build-in benchmark tell I get average of 33fps at the specific setting

kk thanks, though i see that he lives in sarawak/kedah o.0, any luck finding this at retail stores( midvalley, lowyat?)
hell yeah laptops tend to overheat way too fast especially if u use it for gaming, i have the acer 5745g bote it back wen it came out i7 1st gen, send it out for warranty cuz i jz cudnt stand the overheating issues (game for 15mins b4 it shuts itself, temps up to 99C) 12 days later got a call saying thers nothing wrong with it...nw i have to collect it on friday. atleast i wud appreciate if they atleast change the thermal paste and clean the fan and compnents. IF im still having the problem, im also trynig to get my hands on the artic silver 5 change the paste myself and hope atleast a 10C reduce in temps ( anywher between 80-90 is tolerable for 1st gen laptop quads - nt good but beter than nothing)

another method to kip ur temps down is limiting the maximum state of the processor power in power plan, seriusly i had to limit my glorious i7 to a mere 5% yes 5% to ensure no crashes and not to mention low graphic settings.

Added on May 30, 2012, 10:02 pmHi guys , Im going to buy something from China this 15 June . I can help u guys get this keyboard skin . Dateline is 13 June . I will make order on 15 June .

RM14 per skin *excluding poslaju fee

Picture :

its worth extending for 3 years, most hardware has the life expectancy of 3 years which then starts falling apart depending on usage, it'll probably cost u like rm200-400 depending on brand. But if u bote the item year ago and nw decide to extend it probably cost more and well nt worth it.
ofcuz but they wudnt noe i opened it up unless thier warranty void sticker is damaged, jz heat the sticker up, a blade and pop it goes. plus my laptop's oredy 2 years if they cant solve my problem might as well take matter into my own hands.
kk tq much appreciated.
