edit: did this under sunlight. 3 layers. wait for 10 minutes for each layer (to dry; and it's hot just now).

kahtsin, just go and grab one; no need to wait for us don't worry if you spray it wrongly. you can just peel it off and redo.

Hi all, long time no log in here~

Today morning, i jz send my G55VW and ask for refund again~

new gpu driver: http://www.geforce.com/whats-new/articles/...rivers-released

yes i have installed it on my asus and one of the aw. the recent drivers, after that 3d bug got fixed, are all fine to me

by the way, did you follow the video i posted here to get your third antenna installed? it's an easy task actually.

Hi, sorry if i asked something irrelevant,
my customer got a used G53SX and he updated the BIOS to the latest version 209.

The update was successful and shut down after 2 seconds, then it never wake up anymore, on batt, on AC or both, it never comes back anymore.

I suspected a bricked BIOS, but i have not much experience in ROG laptop, any ways i can settle this problem?

When i press power on button, no respond at all. The battery is not charging anymore too, no lights even charger plugged in

yeah it sounds like bricked bios. something was wrong during the bios flashing. normally it will turn on automatically after that.

there is no guaranteed way to revive bricked bios in asus laptops unfortunately. however, there are a number of options that you can try out (with no guarantee to work :/):

first of all, unplug the laptop battery and power source, then press the power button for more than 30 seconds.

1. download the stock bios from asus;
2. format a thumbdrive with fat32;
3. extract the bios directly from the archive to thumbdrive;
4. plug the thumbdrive to the laptop; and put back the battery and power source;
5. turn the laptop on by pressing power button (let's hope it boot);
6. if it does boot, press and hold simultaneously left ctrl+home key until the bios flash menu shows up;
7. the system should do the rest.

another option is to do the discharging like above, then leave it for a day or two, without battery and power source. then put in the battery and power source to try turn it on. i know the chance is very slim, but these were reported to work.

the last option is beyond me, i.e. take out the cmos battery, unsolder the bios flash, buy new compatible bios flash, reprogram it, then solder to the mobo. i think someone must have known this. the one i know is in brazil :/

wow asus charge MYR 550 for this eh? damn.

bro.. don't play play. Malaysians aren't that bad now we know who to contact when we bricked ours

I mean, my Dell Latitude, one screw, i can take off the whole casing at the back to access my RAM, HDD, processor and etc, really, one screw only, see my spec then you know why

https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=3031274&hl=

I modded the laptop because it is so easy to access

Maybe this laptop is not made for someone like me
But very mafan when i wanna dismantle this, anyone tried?

man.. you didn't pay attention :/

AceCombat knows how to unsolder, reflash, and resolder flash chips la. that's why i said don't play play Malaysians aren't that bad lo.

.. and don't put me on god's table ya :/

edit: on a side note - free 10tb permanent cloud storage for you to grab. http://www.weiyun.com/act/10t-en.html

after testing free cloud storage offers like baidu, 360, and yunio, weiyun has the best speeds for downloads and uploads. i have 42tb of free permanent storage at 360 but it's kind of slow. now i only use it to store small files.

you send to me i also can do zero nia lol! as much as i wanna help, i have no knowledge about this

Try follow this

.. don't say that la. i'm just a bit busy body only :/

i only have g55. how to point the bios chip on a g53sx mobo out? ://

I saw at one part sifu Ace mention about only the battery indicator led is on. tonberry_ax u remember when i disassemble your g55 and pasted with that very conductive paste? iirc it's the same~ but different case luh. lol.

now i began to wonder g53 vs g55 which is more durable~ (in terms of disassembling lol

asus is always cryptic in terms of their laptops. that's why i now prefer custom-friendly options, with good manuals. at least i know and can plan what to put into it by studying their internals and specifications via manuals.

but, this is also where all the fun begin. the more they don't want us to see the internals, the more we wanna go in

4 slots. the one ure looking at the HDD bay is the user-accessible slot. there is another 2 slot on the other side of the 2 ram slot ure looking at which needs u to pry open the g55 . won't void ur warranty since the sticker is only on the heatsink screw~
--

anyways. i look lenovo came out with something new ( i just realized ) and it's a variation of GT755M SLI, GTX860M and also R9 275M~ woah =.=" asus dead or what. come out with a refresh of g55 ~ g56? with GTx 860M? must be nice

seems legit also~ lol. coz even can pre-order or order it already .. cost is AUD 3425 approx RM10.2k~ lol. amazing price.

wow.. that price tag is really turning people off :/

with slight oc 780m in my aw is equally good. i got the aw with lower price than that, with good parts, support, and freedom to customize at will.
yeah that's right; what is asus thinking? asus g-series is good. in fact it can outperform stock aw that is in the same range anytime. however the price/performance+value ratio of g-series has changed, compared to other brands.

Sorry, If it isn't a ROG G(aming) series why am i posting in asus G-series thread? Frankly speaking that's a stupid question to ask.

No offense, but i replied to u based on few reason.

1. Check the Posters ranking, ur one of the top 5, means u frequently follow up what's happening in this thread.

2. U have front page post credit for opening up and replaced thermal paste.
U urself own a G series laptop and i wrote there Model G56JR. U still can't differentiate the models?

3. As a usual smart net user before posting reply or starting a thread, GOOGLE UP before asking for suggestions or reply what is it for. That's what search engine are for in this era.

Its available at lyp either from asus service center or one of the shops. The price for an ac adaptor for g55vw should be around MYR 250+ from service center at lyp. I got my spare from a counter-like shop from lyp (it sells lcd screens, batteries and ac adapters; kind of hard to find also) 180W asus bricks are rare.

Ebay sellers are ok. (Look for those with good reputations) however its expensive sometimes especially the shipping. You can also try luck at taobao.
