Not too sure about that as I haven't gotten to the point of opening the notebook up.

. It could be caused by your router.

Somehow my V3's glossy top cover got a minor scratch at the bottom left . It's really driving me crazy and I have no idea on what to do next .

how does GT640m compare to 7690xt? is there a review out for this laptop?

No idea .

Anyway, just got the notebook an Intel 330 120GB SSD. Currently in the midst of restoring files.

alright...just bought this V3-571G on monday 30th April 2012 at Lawyat Plaza 2nd Floor at Sri Computer shop....
suggest goto this shop and can get a good deal.

That's nice . Do you want to be added into the owner list?

Anyway, I have heard stories of poor after-sales service from Sri Computers . Hopefully you won't have to return to them for anything.

I brought V3 471g go nvidia website,
found out 630M not win7 64bit driver...omg!

i ok in the list...
that sale person amin ask me to bring back if anything duno..so far i sense his attidute correct as a sale person.
after i paid and wanna leave...he even pass me a laptop accersory buddy pack cost RM20... even inside only got 2 or 3 thing can i will use out of 10...but this little small thing will add value for his service.

well..now i just partition it to 2 drive...500 each out of 1TB
but that drive is as E...coz D was use by DVD drive already..wonder how to change it...

You can do so by navigating to Control Panel -> System & Security -> Create and format hard disk partitions. . You should be able to swap the drive letters by setting the DVD drive to have a different letter before setting it to E after giving the drive letter D to your second partition .

thx for this extra knowledge...
i just found out the speaker sound was nice...
now thinking wanna search see weather have any keyboard cover to suite this laptop or not...
and get a USB3.0 pen drive too if can...lol...

I dealt with their after sales before when my old laptop's HDD failed on me. Immensely helpful is all I can say. Not only did they try everything in their power to determine whether it really is a HDD failure, they even opened another sealed laptop set so that they can burn the recovery discs for me. Maybe I was lucky but having experienced that, I'd vouch for them any time.

I'm using the laptop keyboard cover that was given to me for free, which unfortunately doesn't cover the whole keyboard, but at least covers the part that I normally use.

that is why i need to search...coz its have number pad on keyboard too

. It seems that my V3-571G will have the slow-motion windows animation issue when I have my mouse's wireless dongle or a USB device plugged in prior to starting it up ( cold start ). Could user(s) of the V3-571G confirm this by having a USB flash drive plugged into his/her V3-571G before starting it up when it's completely shut-down?

Add-on : I seem to experience this when running the notebook on battery power.
Update : Looks like my Microsoft wireless dongle may be the cause to the slow-motion issue.

I haven't gotten to the point of performing extreme gaming sessions since I already have a desktop for that. The processor's load temperature could reach to over 70C though, and that causes the part where the heat-sink and fan to be located at to be hot.

1. I haven't gotten to the point of loading my notebook's processor to over 75C. An anti-virus scan could cause its temperature to soar to around 70C easily though. I would definitely not recommend the use of the notebook for gaming without a proper cooling pad or at least with some gap between the surface it's sitting on and the ventilation holes.

2. You can choose to purchase an extra 2 years of warranty if you wish, especially if you take horror stories about Acer's quality very seriously.

3. I have one minor issue with this notebook, and it's that my V3-571G has all the windows animation going in slow-motion if I have my Microsoft wireless dongle and/or a USB storage device plugged in during a cold-start ( also known as booting up completely from when it's not running). The problem could be lying with my own V3-571G only though as my friend has a similar notebook and his doesn't seem to have any issue . It doesn't really affect anything though, as I can still plug the devices in after the notebook starts completely, though it's slightly of a hassle to be inserting and taking out any USB storage device / my mouse's wireless dongle every time.
