can i take out internal dvd rom and become external?

Just need the case..

anyone has problem with the dead pixels? just want to ask before buying.

For those who want to install Win 8 in their system, you will need to update EC and the latest Win8 BIOS.

Mine bought straight from USA, no dead pixel since day one and the system still went strong even operates 24/7 non stop. XD

What is EC?

And, NP8130 still needs to wait right?

go get SATA to USB cable.

something like tis

"Embedded Controller"

Follow these steps:

1. Disable Intel® Anti-Theft function if the laptop supports Anti-Theft function.
2. Update EC version 1.02.xx for win 8
3. Update ME and BIOS --> “meset.exe” and “flashME.bat”
4. Win 8 BIOS can't downgrade to Win 7 BIOS, but it is compatible with Win 7 OS, you need to select the OS version in CMOS setting.

"Hi,

Been pondering getting a notebook from illegear for a while now. Just went to your website and noticed a revamp and new models? I'm guessing the new Illegear RS series are illegear's own Clevo/Sager models? If not, what are the differences? The RS-15 comes up to about RM300 cheaper with the specs I put in compared to the 9150" by 500yearoldalien

Hi Farr_Him,

They are about the same, but our illegear notebooks are certainly better.
There are few differences:
1. ILLEGEAR's lead time is 3 to 5 days, Sager is 7 to 14 days.
2. ILLEGEAR has much much faster warranty repairing turnaround time, 100% of the repairs will be fixed locally. 50% of Sager warranty repairing will be fixed locally.

thats means np9150 is exactly the same model as RS-15 i mean in term of physical..shape,heavy n whatever it is..

Yes they are the same, and from the same manufacturer, just different branding.

In addition to the random BSOD on windows startup, the new beta drivers also has another weird problem. My GPU would randomly shoot up to about 90% utilization and heating it up for quite a bit and then suddenly stop by itself. Along with it the CPU utilization shoots up to 20%. I'm thinking they over-"fixed" the new drivers as before they mentioned that the enduro issue is caused by some conflict with CPU-GPU communication. Anyone experiencing this weird situation as well? Btw, I have a sager 9150 with 7970M.

EDIT: Temporary solution I used is by disabling the re-enabling the GPU from device manager every time it happens.

EDIT2: Just realized that CPU utilization has something to do with MMLoadDrvPXDiscrete.exe from AMD catalyst. Any idea whats this process for?

EDIT 3: An off-topic, my right fringe is getting kinda squeaky. Just a small problem but anyway to put apply lubricant in it? Could it be due to semi-cracked screw hole I detected just a moment ago?

i read reviews that sager has problems with their keyboard, that is some keys need to be pressed harder to register the key and keyboard ghostting, which means some key combinations wont work. does anyone encounter this?

Yes it's true. Clevo has looked into this and we shall expect a fix on next refresh line.

guys is this hdd in bad state? After run the seatools it doesn't fix it. Based on the serial number the harddisk is still under warranty up until 2014. Should i send it back for rma?

Guys...

Just bought Steam version of Doom 3 BFG Edition.

Why is it that the game is laggy? As if my graphic card aren't powerful at all?

I've set it to run on High Performance. Is this what the famous Enduro thingy about?

If it is.. how do I go around this problem and get the Doom 3 to run at its best?

I don't really know why is it like that but check your hotkey application whether its under performance mode in power conservation.
