Have been so busy with work nowadays. I have some questions!
How often do you guys clean your fans? My previous dell, I have not cleaned it even once in 5 years, and its noisy as hell. Now after approx 1~1.5 months, my temperatures are slightly higher by 2~3 degrees.

Those with GTX485, I have questions...
Anyone installed the latest driver, 275.33? I see a huge drop in FPS after installing it. I thought Im supposed to get better performance? :S

I find the thing connecting to the charger extremely loose, maybe check it?
I have to push it in with force and not touch it for it to be able to stay in place...

I still haven't met anyone of you IRL xD
Will the day come when two Sagers meet by chance?

Also, do I get anything being a top 20 spammer?

I just opened my laptop up, cleaned the fans...and disaster happened.
I lost two screws in the laptop. I tried shaking it out, and it didn't come out.
Either 1. It's stuck tight in between something
or 2. It dropped on the red/black/yellow carpet and its lost...
I hope its lost!

There's no sound at all when I shook it. I tapped it a little and nothing happened.
I hope I lost the screw instead of it stuck inside somewhere...
I took apart the optical bay, fans, heatsinks and the harddrive. Couldn't find it...prolly stuck somewhere deep

Lesson learnt...always always use a magnetic screwdriver...

Eh, did anyone here face problem like this.

My graphic card suddenly not responding, then the monitor flicker, then at the end blue screen and restart. But sometimes it doesnt blue screen.

I try google around and people did comment that it is driver problem, so i waited for nvidia new driver to come out. I had try 3 new driver from nvidia and yet it still the same result. So this time i suspect it is graphic card problem. cham ah

I have the same problem too, but only if I leave my laptop on for 2 days straight or so. My screen will flicker, but will not be force restarted though.

Anyone can help me?
I was cleaning the fan today and was curious of what component was underneath
I pulled out what seems to be the CPU, and now my temperature on full load is like 90 degrees. Do you guys think that i screwed up the thermal paste, probably trapped some air inside or something?
Its giving me a headache...

Ohhh...so the problem is...? Did the paste dry up/ get air pockets/ dust sticking on the paste?
Also did anyone buy from mucro? is the amount they put normal or not?

Once the old thermal paste applied, it'll eventually dried up and become useless once you disassemble the heatsink. Need to reapply new thermal paste.

kahjye bought NP8130 from mucro before. But I believe they apply the same amount of thermal paste like others.

Hmm alright, thanks!

My screen lights up but no picture appears
Happened after launching starcraft, no idea what the problem is...
The recurring problem in my laptop is the Kernel driver error or something, related to the graphics card
My graphics card will always restart itself after several hours or so, so i think thats it

Spray that thing out with compressed gas? I did it on a piece of nugget under my keyboard before

For mine, the screen will turn into weird colours, mainly RGB
I never had that restart issue before though...
