Hi,
If I buy Z5 now, get FREE Professional Color Calibration.
But if later upgrade to Windows 10 when all drivers are stable and the color need to re-calibrate, it is still free or need to pay a fee for it?

Hi huislaw,

We can help you to recalibrate if you upgrade to windows 10. And yes it's free.

Thanks.
If I get default 2 years warranty now, can I extend 1 more year later in the 2nd year?

Microsoft execs expect frame rates to more than double when comparing DX12 to the current DX11 API. But that estimate looks to be conservative if Futuremark's new API Overhead Feature test is to be believed. shocking.gif

Can't wait to try on Windows 10. But I think the existing games need to be updated ?

UPDATE: Issue below is fixed.

Hi,

After installing all drivers and followed color profile steps, I noticed purple background in the task bar when right click as attached.

OS: Win 8.1.

How can I fix this? Not sure caused by windows itself or anything I setup wrongly?

Thanks.

how to use the function key ar?
any manual to read?
*
FN + 0 => On/Off backlight
FN + 1 => Max fan speed
FN + 9 => On/Off Intel Turbo Boost
FN + Esc => On/Off touch pad
Others fn keys is pretty much self explanatory from the keyboard itself.

true..hence, im recommending u to buy windows 7 and then upgrade to windows 10

Does it mean even though we clean install using win7 CD, 2 or 3 years later, we still can upgrade to Win10, if we accept the upgrade within one years?

no..your computers need to be running on windows 10 before that 1 year free offer expires

If upgrade now, then 2 years later clean install / bought new Illegear, still can get Windows 10 with the Windows 7 DVD/Serial ?

If not, that means that time will stuck with Win7 and have to buy Win10 if something happen to the harddisk ?

Hi,

Is the warranty validation on the website working?
URL: http://www.illegear.com/exchange/ (on the right side).

I try to key in my serial number but it seems to accept 10 characters only and when I clicked, the page is empty.

Thanks.
