QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Aug 4 2011, 02:34 AM) Yes, just unscrew and slide the dvd out and slide in the bluray drive.. okay, but i'm really afraid it would result to problems in future.. Nothing much, maybe need to slot in back the original dvd drive for warranty purposes... meantime, i REALLY need a bluray player ...... nvm, would consider it... im getting this 4830TG in 2 weeks time!  btw, all the bluray drives are suitable or only specific ones? |

QUOTE(lee_what2004 @ Aug 4 2011, 02:45 AM) No need, should be just plug and play.. alright, might as well buy an internal bluray drive when i purchase my laptop!Shouldn't need a technician.. You just need to remove one screw (on bottom, just right beside the area for dvd drive) then should be able to take out the dvd drive.. thank you so much for clarifying  |

QUOTE(mfitri77 @ Jun 8 2011, 09:44 AM) Used to be true back where battery technology was in the stone age, but these day and age, with all the new battery technology the old "8 hours fully charge before you can use" simply isn't true anymore. Which means I can use the laptop while charging it for the first time?I always have a good laugh at anyone trying to sound like they know what they are talking about, particularly older handphone seller who still repeat the 8 hour mantra. But no, just charge until its full, and you're free to use it after that. |

QUOTE(syedkamal92 @ Aug 7 2011, 04:30 PM) will bought this laptop about this week or later .. Congrats. I'm also getting it next week. what thing make ur proud to have this laptop? acer timelineX is better than aspire right??? coz i dont see any bad feedback for timelinex series yet. Well, there are some bad feedbacks too, according to notroxcity , there are some throttling issues in the processor. that's quite disappointing though .... |

QUOTE(eLmeRxD @ Aug 7 2011, 07:38 PM) sorry if i post at wrong section..here goes my problem I guess you're using Windows 7 for the first time? Lol. i have a problem regarding my laptop and hopefully someone here is kind enough to give me an answer or a solution. Why every time when i shut down, before logging off from desktop, there's warning pop out said that "force to shut down" or "cancel". What's that? is there something i left to close before turning off? It only appear 1 second, even when i get the chance to click cancel, it doesn't work and continue to shut down. Anyone of you face the same problem as mine?  It's not a prblem, its memang like that in windows 7. if you still have programs running, that screen will appear. |
