install Windows XP with Service Pack 2,
install the Microsoft Dual Core hotfix,
install the AMD Dual Core Turion 64 X2 CPU driver
install the AMD Dual Core Optimizer

set power option to minimal power management. should be fine...

bad news here , jz receive a news from john , he said our so good to called mr admin banned him 14 days bcoz he promoting sales out side sales thread .... wtf is going on ? i dont think there is a rules there you cant promote sales outdside the sales thread , he is jz ask ppl to choose to buy from him , not begging ppl to do so , whats wrong ? mt se7en , you owe us a explanation ..

so after upgrade can long lasting for 2.30Hours? Thats great. My laptop with IC2D just can last for 2hours with battery saving option and used office works. Anyway to extend the battery life?

Big problem this time.
My V3203AU suddenly can't boot windows.
It can't go into windows loading screen.
Then i restart, and i can manage to get into Safe Mode, so i think was like no problem.
Then i restart again, problem seems still there.
I thought was my windows' problem, then i formatted it, twice.
End up the result also same.
So any sifu out there know what's going on?
I just bought the laptop not long ago, and such thing happened so fast.
My hardwares remind like stock, just i changed the ram to 2x 1GB Corsair Value Ram, which the shop(gadget zone) recommended me.

If using Vista running on AMD, how we do maximize our battery life to 2.5 hours ?

Currently mine can last around 1.45 to max of 2 hour on WiFI.

not again =/

i think we should open a poll to show to the admin leh ,
i dont think recommend ppl buy from him is wrong wht ,
since he din beg ppl also , not force ppl also . lol

if you are using windows vista, you dont need to install any of the dual core drivers or anything. Vista supports dual core out of the box.

Windows Vista Power Options in Control Panel has a PowerSaver plan. does that work? somewhere in the control panel also has settings for notebook, i think.

Early version of Windows Vista has problem with power management too. heard that it drains more power than Windows XP.

I think the PowerSave mode is working, otherwise I would be able to get battery life up to 2 hours.

Will try to see if I can get 2.5 hours battery life when surfing on hotspot area with WiFi with the following adjustment :

1. Setting the hard disk to turn off in 5 mins instead of the default of 20 mins.
2. Setting the min & max CPU clock speed.
3. Screen brightness setting to lowest as possible.

Hi everyone,

I got a V3204TU model in January 2007 and it was working fine until recently when the sound started giving problems. When you tilted it in a certain way, there'd be no sound and if you adjusted the lcd, the sound comes back but later on, we discovered that if you rested your wrist on the right side of the laptop, the sound would go off and if you lifted your wrist up and put it back there, the sound would come back on. A bit strange.

Sent it to the service centre and obviously, the sound had to work perfectly. Anyway, they've listed my problem as "intermittent sound issues". Hopefully they find out what's wrong.

I'm scared of sending my computer to the service centre. Not sure if it's going to come back more spoilt or what.

For any new expensive product, all of us should be scared if send back to service centre
But in your case, since it's not a software issue but hardware issue, you have no choice but to send back to them (maybe some parts or wiring lose inside your notebook).

I have the same experience with my desktop like urs b4. It cause by HarDisk burn mark. Then I just take the hd to claim a new 1 from my reseller. I am using Maxtor hardisk. U can ask the reseller check for u if ur laptop is still under cover.

hmm, the power save for Turion is auto working 1 isnt it?
why it cant switch automatically when I change to battery
wonder why.
Thanks sokdotcom for your recommendation
will try the AMD Power Monitor
