WOOOOOT!! my LCD had been replaced, and my black beauty have been restored!!

it was quite efficient of Dell, damn I'm so proud to be an XPS owner!

will post a photostory later. (I was practically brathing down the techie's neck every step of the process)

new XPS M1210 user reported here!i will receive my laptop at tomorrow!!
i buy at rm3200 c2d 1.66mhz,intel graphic,no webcam,1gb ram,xp home...

hi guys,im back..with my m1210 with a new fan & heatsink & my 3dmark06 score 83X poinr now..back to normal & my idle temp is 60C & highest 79C..

but the sad part is..my system need to be taken back to the service center & to be force open due to a spoiled screw done by the previous technician..it took 1week for me to get back my system..& they had broken the palm rest & bottom casing..therefore they changed a new 1 with my old sticker,service tag number...etc being tear off & transfer to the new bottom casing..which is horrible..i'll upload the pic tomorrow..oh man..its heart breaking to see my baby look so horrible,besides the centrino duo & windows vista capable sticker was taken from my old system..why do dell doesnt replace me a new 1..

i'll complain & try to claim for new sticker..

stay tuned for new xps model..more stylish... more good looking..

dont know yet..but i have see the system...and i was so surprise..the latest design for xps was so cool..that system now running for testing..but not sure whether it for asia or US only..i hope..they will release in asia pasific market too

From what I read from various sources, the users says, next time they want to take your laptop away, give them whatever excuse to make them fix the stuff at your home. I mean, that's what on-site warranty is for right. Just don't let them take it, and it would be fine next time.

Don't only claim for new sticker, get a a palmrest etc etc, the warranty is there for you to abuse it.

yerp...dont let them take the notebook...if they really need to take it, at least ask them to provide u temp notebook....

ahaha...hopefully they bring latest model to malaysia...boring larr...we only cuci mata when surfing dell us website...malaysia only got 1 xps model...haih...

wth ....

it was the technician fault ....should make him liable for his action...

btw , i know wats ur feeling ....the C2D and windows sticker was forced to taken out from the old system and the sad part was , the stickers are also spoilt d .... it was happended 2 me last time ...

Reasons why I'd rather not deal with the "Legion of Doom" (the repair people) unless my XPS is utterly half destroyed, or at least ruined enough for them to have to replace it with a new one...

Inside man, eh... Well, any specs on this new XPS? I'm betting half a leg it's the long awaited 15 inch XPS... Which, if they could stuff a 8600GT inside of it (AND if they decide to sell it in Msia) would make me cry buckets...

But a M1210 rehash with a 8400 (or a 8600GS ) would be sweet too...

EDIT: You sure its a new XPS Lappy and not just the XPS 720 H2C Desktop that Dell's already gonna launch stateside? It would be sweet if they'd launch that ultra desktop here, but it's huge and hugely expensive anyway...

want ask something,can i change the ram myself?will it destroy my warranty?cos i saw at lowyat plaza today 1gb ram only rm109,think to upgrade it..

well, i guess most of the technicians dont really know all the systems. there are like so many types of model of laptops and they dun have like specific team to deal with certain models.....
everytime they open, they seem uncertain of the stuff. some are juz like trial and error.... some always forget to remove certain screws and then try pulling it out hard then oni realise..... =.=''.....

Nope, warranty won't be affected if you use new RAM modules... But the ori warranty wont cover your new RAM... Just the old ones...

The 2nd RAM slot's a little bit hard to get to, though... As it's under the keyboard... Gotta unscrew and remove the KB first, instructions provided in the XPS manual...

i had to allowed them to take away my laptop..cause they really was unable to unscrew the screw with normal tools..

this will be the last chance for my system or for this service tag number(bad luck with this service tag,maybe im the only guy who encounter so much problem,even more then dingding,he has got himself a replacement unit)..lol..any problem occur again i'll ask for a replacement unit with my old toshiba,keyboard & lcd shift over to the new system..

alamak...like dat he cannot be technicion laa..

if wanna dismantle smthg...there's 1 rule must follow....make sure u did wat ever u did b4 in reverse format...

like step A B C D E then when we wanna put everythg back we should do step E D C B A...

dismantling a notebook is easier than wat it look...one should hv good memory as if one does not hv good memory, one should not be a technicion

but seriusly laa...even he dismantling many system, he shoudl rmmbr the step he did b4...i cant forgive such mistake...

last time, rite after dell techie change my procs...after several week, i decided to dismantling my notebook....bcos last time he didnt apply new thermalpaste...temp kindaa high then usual...do rmmbr...this is my 1st notebook...nvr dismantling any notebook...n dat was my 1st time wacthing people dismantling a notebook...with my 1st attempt, i successfully dismantle n putting it back together without forgeting any step....y? bcos i am carefull...as long as u carefull, sure wont forget any steps...haih....

if clumsy....haih...no hope actually i should complaint to dell...but donwan larr...
