going to buy fw23 tml.. will bug the staff there for some freebies hehe

Mine is black! Initially thought of getting white but still stick to the safer colour.The design of vaio is simply marvellous! Bluetooth and wireless is so easy to acess.

hm...looking at the recent thread, most ppl are opting for CS now...

i installed NFS carbon, NFS undercover, hitman, marine sharprhooter 4, COD4, and red alert 3..
NFS carbon, Hitman, marine sharpshooter 4, highest setting..
COD4 and NFS undercover-high settings..
red alert 3-medium settings..

i think crysis low setting..i didnt install because i dont like the game..and the file is too big.
but NFS carbon and undercover didnt support the 1600 x 900 resolution..it'll be square..
others, full widescreen..superb.
if you want to play games, sell the free VAIO mouse and buy a razer..superb.

no wonder..you ordered before the PC fair..sure you get the freebies..

anyone here got anything on vgn ar49g?? hello? vaio people

thx for ur comment. I just reached home with my fw-23
Anyway, no free gift given But anyway, i will be getting a vaio bluetooth mouse and sony mp3 for free , Will charge for 8 hours later, make recovery disc(will take 3 hour according to the sony fella) and install games tml

and fw-23 also

hey guys would like to ask some questions regarding my CR35G unit.
My currently ram was 2GB.. Can i upgrade it to 4GB instead?? which brand to recommend and where can i get it?? Thanks

am i the only one here with fw12...?

where did u buy it? if im not mistaken its a new model right? coz in sony website and the sonytime magazine, there are only 3 model available which are fw27, 25 and 23. But today in KLCC sonystyle i saw more than that. Mind to state your fw12 spec and price? anyway, do use any laptop cooler? anyway, im experiencing delay while entering window for the first few times.. not sure whats the prob.. mayb the system has not been completely updated yet?

the fw12 is an older model, sort of the 1st gen of fw series, ours is 2nd gen, soon they'll be releasing fw-3x that will be the 3rd gen, until a new model comes along.. woohooo.. got mine today also, to me the free ram helps alot, well an extra 1gb since vista does not support 4gb ram only 3gb, other than that, happy with the vaio... AWESOME!!!

driver? nay..no need..for me, 2gb ram is already enough..the graphics card is GDDR3, so its good enough..checked with GPU-Z..if DDR2 then maybe need to share memory so upgrade is a must..my notebook use less than 50% of the RAM memory most of the time..so, why need upgrade? but if you want, just add another 1gb..4gb is kind of useless with vista 32bit..

bout the driver..there is windows update and VAIO update..so you dont have to worry bout anything..

you are into gaming rite? get a razer instead of the bluetooth VAIO mouse..bluetooth mouse is quite heavy for gaming, and you can get a decent razer mouse and mat for that price..

cooler pad?? i LOLed and ROFLed over it..dude, you would never believe yourself when you start playing games later..almost no heat at all. just dont put your hand beside the heatsink on the left..that air vent emits heat like hell man..but you feel nothing on the keyboard and touchpad..its like miracle! i use HP pavilion DV2000 before, keyboard and touchpad area feels quite hot after two hours. i played NFS the whole day on my VAIO, no heat at all..the heat circulation is really2 good..salute the engineers who design it man..
btw, get a cooler master notepal if you insist on cooling pad..its custom made to fit any laptops...or this small cooler which you attach to the air vent..something around RM70..cheap and good..since the heat came out from the airvent, this cooler suck out the heat more..imagine a VAIO with a cooler..

dont forget to buy a good headphones too..sennheiser HD201 will be good enough..the realtek soundcard can do wonders! you'll get cinema-like 5.1 surround sound on an earphone!

Would like to know when will be the next PC fair in KL?

Bluetooth mouse is free so of coz i wan it is the air flow system really that good? will try install and play games tonight. BTW i havent make the recovery disc. It wil take 3 hours right? according to the sony staff. Can i do the recovery disc next year? but before that i wanna install some games first. Wont affect the recovery results right?

VGN-FW25
is this laptop any good?
what games can be played on it?
any comments? considering this laptop..

Im using SR26 which is almost the same specs as FW25. Can play RA3 with no lag and also Left4Dead with moderate settings with no lag

I was about to purchase FW25 last time, but my parents said, buy laptop so big for wut

you're right! laptop in other means to easy carrying support your point.

dont worry bout recovery lah..your computer got nothing inside..
i tried d..you need external HDD or DVD..they didnt save it in the computer of course..
it works like time machine..

I hv just created the recovery dvd. 3 dvd needed. Anyway, according to my friend who owns a vaio, he say after creating the recovery disc, 1 new harddisk partition will appear. But its not happening here..

We can get 3 month of extend warranty if register as sony style member right? but somehow my product code is invalid.

Recovery partition already exists on your hard disk. The recovery dvd is just a copy of it. The partition is a 'hidden' partition, but it appears in windows as another drive when you run VAIO recovery. When you close VAIO recovery, this drive magically disappears again.
