btw, my location is putrajaya..=) thanks in advance guys..my laptop is asus a43sj..

hey guys any idea where to get replacement battery for this model?

TQ

I'm not sure if I can do this, anyone tried replacing the wifi card before?
I was thinking of getting a better card to pull the wifi bandwith or maybe just buy a USB wifi for... does it even work that way?

My housemates has newer laptop so each and everytime they open some streaming site it will effect my connectivity to the point I can't even load google page properly.

I've noticed this problem since I was at my grandparent house last two years where all my relatives gets better speed than mine. my suspicion goes to the laptop wifi card.

i tried this before. i bought another model of wifi card to replace. but it doesnt work. so end up use back the original wifi card. maybe i bought a fake or not suitable one....

Ouch.. I'm still looking for a roundaway work for this.. It's very funny when I use both my laptop and phone at the same time and the phone can pull most of the bandwith while it's only these two devices are connected to router.

ever tried re wiring the black and grey wires?
as in making them more exposed and away from other laptop components (screen, psu card etc?)

Here is what i did in order to get advantages for this newly Windows 10 OS & get problems / bugs free. My devices is ASUS N53 series laptop with clean installation of Windows 10 Home x64

1. Perform ugrade from your Windows 7 SP1 or 8.1 using upgrade reserve or Media Creation Tool. Later, make sure the windows is activated. This is a MUST step in order to get Windows activated the official way.

2. Later, perform Clean installation from your created ISO USB / DVD burn disk by formating the OS(C:\) partiton. You will get a fresh OS later on. All the files/software inside C drive will delete. Skip for key request during clean installation process

3. Connect your Ethernet such as Streamyx (Setting in Stremyx modem remain unchanged, just the DNS server address in your Ethernet connect devices change to automatically by Microsoft. You can change it later on to Stremyx DNS or Google DNS) to get access to internet.

4. Perform this manual driver installation steps (in this case, ASUS N53 series laptop). Restart when required.

- Manual install the Realtek HD Audio Driver/Software. For low sound issues in Realtek, just change it in Realtek Software setting (disable the environment setting, play around with bit rate)
- Manual install the Nvidia Geforce Driver
- Manual install the ASUS ATK Package for Windows 10 to solve out the Fn keys issues in Windows 10. After installation, tick the button in ATK App to access the Fn keys

5. Perform the Windows Update to download all the drivers update / Microsoft bugs fix. Restart when required.

6. Check the ”Device Manager” to make sure there is no error for all your built in driver. If error occur, just right click the driver and perform ”driver software upgrade” Microsoft will search & fix the problem for you. Make sure that the connection is on.

7. Install those ”optional features” from setting/ Control Panal. Make sure that the connection is on.

- Chinese/Malay/India languages pack (for keyboard typing, handwriting, speech) from optional features
- Language pack for OS language if you require from Control Panel language setting
- Microsoft. Net features from optional features
- Direct X Utility features from optional features
- Install the free Offline Maps for Malaysia from Microsoft built in App ”Here Maps”

8. Perform all the necessary software installation that you required. Here is some tips

- For me, Windows Defender is well enough for average users to get protection from virus or malware. There is not necessary to install another antivirus/ malware software to get protected. It will confuse & cause the OS to slow down
- You can also install Libre Office (latest beta version is great) to replace Microsoft Office
- No need to install additional adobe flash player because Microsoft Edge, IE & Chrome is built inside adobe flash player. On the others hand, Firefox & Opera require to install additional adobe flash player
- Install the Java Runtime Environment software because some software or browser may need it

9. For external devices such as the smartphone, printer, USB devices & external hardisks, just plug n play and allow Windows to search for necessary drivers for installation purposes

10. Set up all those setting in you control panel, software & apps You are feel to go & enjoy this final version of Microsoft OS for a very long time until your device is dead. It is excellent in a nutshell with clean installation !!!

Hopefully the above guides will help you all. Thanks

update the driver software in setting-> device manager. Check the windows update also

I've found the solution, the bluetooth driver was installed by Bluesoleil driver,
in device manager
1. uninstalled the Bluesoleil driver (tick the also delete driver file)
2. Scan for hardware change
3. see the new unknown driver
4. check for driver update online
5. then windows will automatic installed the right driver

now is working now, so far windows 10 run smooth on my N53SN

It should be "Qualcomm Atheros Communications" for Bluetooth driver

so my N53SN fan mysteriously started vibrating one day.

replaced the whole fan unit for RM30 and
realised that it is so much better to clean the laptop and replace the fan unit.

now the idle temp over around 44-48'c and moderate usage 58'c
and the laptop is once again silent since i'm running ssd.

just a tip for those who wants to start afresh with your windows 10.
super quiet and like a new laptop once again.

btw those N53SN users here, u gotta change ur temp paste,
the stock paste caked up rock hard and I had to chip away with a flat screwdriver and a toothbrush
signs that it is running efficient already.

Hi, just wanted to check with you, you did this by yourself or send to shop for repair?

diy..

took everything apart, clean and reassembled in 3 hours.
using only few flat heads (philips) and few cross heads screwdrivers, tissues and a brush.

ez work as there is a teardown of this model on youtube.
