To G55VW-S1095V owners,

When you first start up your G55VW-S1095V, do you have to wait for all the driver and programs to install before you can use? Or everything is ready to use?

I'm asking because my Toshiba Qosmio when first start up need to wait for them to install everything like every time you formating your laptop but my G55VW-S1095V can be use straight away when i first start up.

Thanks.

all drivers installed..you just need to do windows' first time start' process like entering the time zone, your name etc

My G55 not even asked me to do windows' first time start' process like entering the time zone, your name etc.

The default user name is G55VW?
*
no..it cant be,windows should ask you to do that normal process..if in your g55 the default name is g55vw, that means somebody else already did the windows 'first time startup' process for you somebody has startup your computer and set the name g55vw..if you r the first one to on the computer,you should be able to put the computer your name, set your time zone, set wireless, set network and so 'first time configurations..like me i put my computer name is Arvin-pc..THERE IS NO DEFAULT as you get to set your own computer name.

Just notice you have a beats studio, Arvinaaa. How does it go with the G55? biggrin.gif

the sound is superb with the g55 and beats studio..only problem is the colour doesnt match..my beats studio is white..ceh, should have choose the black smile.gif..but the beats really give a new experience for the g55 sound system.

another thing, can u manually switch the graphic card between the intel hd 4000 and the built-in gtx660m? or it will be switched autoMAGICALLY?

bcos i heard from somebody saying that the graphic card is not switchable (both automatic or manual switching).i feel tat it is reli impossible for not allowing users to switch it
*
i havent try..but most probably cannot..i can, it would have been written in the manual..99 percent cannot bro..i have checked..at first i also thought it is impossible ..but the g55 cannot switch

Yep, the studio cause around rm1699 now.

Haha, nah. I'm not into Beats. I'm currently getting an AKG headphone, the AKG k518le, about rm200 from US (malaysia selling rm400) Something that i regret now..  laugh.gif  cause i could've gone for the AiAiAi TMA-1 instead. A friend of mine is into headphones, he has one of this model. Amazing sound and I prefer the bass in the TMA 1 compared to the beats plus it's about 1k cheaper. Another thing that caught my attention is the minimalist design. I'm a sucker for that tongue.gif

here's a review by Clieos for the TMA-1

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2008784/all

but nvm, consider the AKG as an entry to my newly found obsession laugh.gif will get the TMA-1 very very soon.

what games have you played on the G55 so far?
*
Yup, the tma1 bass is nice, I bought beats coz the design is nice and beautiful..and the sound is damn good. The akg you already purchase? Cannot change to the tma 1? Finished cod mw3, battlefield3, mass effect3 and need for speed run..playing diablo 3 but just started.

Then may i know y you guys going for g55 if the N56VM-S3022V (i7-3610QM processor) can perform well?

The reason for me changing my view to N56 is because G55 is out of stock unless i can get it before this weekend.
Don't be offended, i asked because i am new to all this. Initially i really thought that i do need a gtx for gaming
as i noticed that many guys going for G55 when comes to gaming .. how stupid i am rclxm9.gif


Added on May 21, 2012, 2:30 am

I intend to ask the shop to install power point, adobe flash, firefox etc etc as i m not well verse in doing so ..

Do you mean by this doing so i will be facing the same problem as just_kiing?


Added on May 21, 2012, 2:36 am

Hai, bro, N56VM-S3022V (i7-3610QM processor) the asus product guide May-june 2012 that i have shows Display : 15.6" Backlight HD (1366x768) oni.
*
the n56 is good bro..just that it is slightly lower than the g55 in terms of power..thats all..if you need a laptop by this weekend, 99.99% percent you cant get by this week ,because so many people ordered(ykgen,girugaga,etc etc etc etc etc) looks like you have to get the n56..but, the n56 os NOT full hd, it is only 1366x768 display..

if you want to ask the shop guy to install the software you mentioned abouve..i would suggest you to be with the shop guy while he is opening your laptop for the first time..check whether the windows is 'first time startup' process or not..if yes, you can enter your username and time zone right at the shop..after the first time startup, then the shop guy can install the softwares,wont be a problem....IF YOU R NOT THERE WHILE HE INSTALL THE SOFTWARE, you might not know how many times he turned on your laptop, or what he is using for..so i suggest you be there so you can set the windows first time startup process.

actually..installing mozilla firefox and adobe flash player is quite easy..you can try a browser called GOOGLE CHROME.IT IS THE fastest and simplest browser in the world..try it. as for the powerpoint, you need to purchase an original copy of microsoft office for it( original with key)

thats all for now..if any question, post here smile.gif

Not sure, sometimes brochure can't be accurate.
I'm sure that not wise to promote piracy, btw the windows 7 came with ms office starter already. It doesn't support Powerpoint but u can download open source office software known as Open Office. Its better than u going for open source than pirate it.

No, G73/53 doesn't have their graphic soldered.
G74 and G55 yes, but G75 GTX 660M is not soldered as G75 has 2 variation of graphic card to choose from GTX 660M/670M.
Fan speed issue so far. G73JH might be able to support HD7970M which smokes GTX660M to dust.

Is tha laptop g73 yours? Did you changed the graphic cards? So g55cannot.change graphic card la.. smile.gif
