HI guys..
Pls add me to the club as well..

Just purchase N55 I5 with HD + last month.. Love it but wish I waited a bit longer for the 7200 rpm HDD.. Oh well ..

neways, I want to take off my ODD and add in an additional HDD with SATA caddy case.

Can anyone tell me wat size caddy case should I buy? is it the 12.7 mm caddy case? Anyone knows wat the dimension of the ODD is?

Thanks..

guys,

it seems that i'm not able to detect the nvidia gt 555m in HWmonitor.. also, when i wanted to disable turbo boost using throttlestop, the option to disable it is grayed out..
I just realize this when i saw screenshots of others n55sf where the nvidia gt 555m shows the temp where as mine did not appear..


i'm using i5 processor, btw..

HWMonitor would only show the nVidia after the nVIdia is ON, you open HWMonitor.

Ok, how do you turn the nvidia on? Isnt it on just as thelaptop starts? TQ

thanks for the info, bro.. really appreciate tat..
didnt think of it dat way..

again, thanks..

sifu lee, I dont knw if anyone else has tis problem but after my latest installation of windows ( freshly formatted), when i wanted to start up the lappy using only battery, it requires several pressed of the power button to start up.

But it start up at once if conected to a/c mode.

any suggestions?

no, i've check the connector and its still ok.. no traces of dirt or watever.. it could be the windows i installed (windows xdark edition).. plus some of the asus utilities doesnt work (ex splendid utility).. even when i wanted to boot to asus music now, i had to press at least 3 times before i could boot in..

sifus, need advise on somethin..

When i start up my laptop recently, it blinks like 3 times on LED indicator before actually booting in. In batt mode, i had to press the power button 3 times.

its gettin annoyin and if anyone can help me, i'd appreciate it very much..
If possible, sending it to ASUS center would be the last option since i live in Miri and i dun want to be without a laptop for such a period.

Bought it at PC Image @ Parkson. Its brand new and bought just a month before Asus included the 750 gb 7200 rpm HDD..

I tried everything even reformating the whole laptop & installing new windows.. Still problem persist.. Even tried installing & restarting the lappy while installing one driver at a time.. I suspect it could be related to the power source but I aint a technician.. just speculation..

Congrats, dude..
Welcome to the club..

PC tech for 16+ yrs? I have an annoying problem wif my N55SF and i wonder if u could help me..

When I wanted to boot up my lappy, it doesnt boot up right away.. It has to blink once on the LED indicator panel, shut down and then begin the process again for 3 times.. After that you can see the Asus screen thus proceeding to windows. This is in A/C mode. If its in Battery mode, I have to press the power button 3 times to really boot up the PC.

Could it be due to the BIOS update from 203 to 207? the first few times after the BIOS update it was still ok..

Could it be a hardware (something to do wif power supply) problem?

Appreciate any help given..

Guys, NVidia driver 290.53 beta is out.. I'm testing it out now..According to the description, mostly improvement for Skyrim.. Hehehe
