Borrowed and playing Black Flag at FHD, tweaked some to low on GTX 560M, gosh games nowadays are stressing Laptop GPU harsh despite it already has 2GB of GDDR5 VRAM.

well contacts have been cleaned and the battery is still detected, power jack i think won't be a problem? coz i still can boot the laptop normally, most likely the battery

and i still haven't reset my damn bios =.=" pff.. was too damn busy hunting lion dance biggrin.gif
hi smile.gif we have a guide for that on our main page, atleast it will give you some ideas

here it is:-

Thanks to horns for this Guide

1. Checking CPU/GPU temperature is essential, but it’s better to test it on games (have fun) instead of doing synthetic test (gpu/cpu benchmark). Take your own sweet time (within the 7 days grace period) and if something went amiss get one-to-one exchange from where you bought it.

2. Check all the common hardware parts that is being used normally (i.e. screens for dead pixel, speakers, keyboard keys, touch pad, rog button, card reads, keyboard backlit, fn keys, usb ports, hdmi/vga/mini display port, wifi and lan, headphone jack, dvd/blu-ray rom etc.) Do check the system info/hwinfo to see whether the specs are exactly as what you are paying for. Other than that run ram test (memtest86+); run it overnight and check results when you wake up in the morning

3. Bios, if there’s nothing wrong with it leave it running stock (there’s no need for an upgrade)

4. Update drivers as updates are usually meant for good things (most of the times) especially Graphic driver as it will support latest games.

5. Getting SSD? Perform clean install is recommended as it has lower chances of heading towards sleepless nights trying to fix. For win8 run disk optimization to trim drives, perform restart, turn of display and leave it til morning this is for system-wide SSD optimization (only after clean
yeah i think i need to get a new batt too, mine is dead. what problem do you have with yours?

check your desktop, theres a webpage named "energy report" smile.gif
ah, i really thought u meant flashing it new. haha. i guess i understand u wrongly haha.
i clean install windows 7. So i don't need to know which one to delete smile.gif and most of the bloatware is never essential biggrin.gif.

But i did make a recovery DVD for myself (the original win 7) in case i ran into some problems (which never happened yet)

I don't see asus release a win 10 driver, but you could try this.
Note the "2015/02/16 update" version.
Optionally try this driver.

Thanks smile.gif

Turns out i forgot to installed new driver for my trackpad laugh.gif

and yeah, win10 so far so good, i'd say its better than 8/8.1.

Smooth, boot faster, and just one problem, Cortana is not available in malaysia yet.. unless u changed your region to US or any country that available for cortana..
