Works for me even on my monitor which i hook-up via VGA socket.
That's because the S41 hates people who use pirated War3 and those who play DoTA. I do hope you're not running pirated War3?

nah... i dun think so....

playing war3 dont need any cd what..

So i thought S41 has some special ability to detect pirated softwares and stop us from using it by giving us blue screen and a reboot ..  hmm.gif

that's not wat i meant bro.... i mean bcoz of many dvds can't be read in s41's dvd rom so aoshi88 said s41 is fighting piracy....

John, I got this really annoying prob with my S41.

It became more and more serious in time, and its taking my life apart....

The display will fail and recover in random times.... Sometime it will recover, and most of the time it will just stay blank. can't even do anything. In this state my S41 will be in hang state...

I got a temporary solution, that is going for Power Saver mode, but this also don't guarantee the operation. If I'm lucky, I can work for about 2-3 hours, if not, not even 10 minutes... it will go blank, and crash...

When I tried to uninstall the nVidia driver, the problem perish. but without graphic driver, life is dull....

Tried reformat, but the same problem appears. I suspect heat problem, but it is the same weather i used cooling pad or not.

I will send this to you in after my finals (2nd week next month), as I have a lot of study materials in here....

Is the graphic chip problem here?
*
gosh... i dun quite really understand the situation but it sounds serious. I tried b4 that my s41 switch off the lcd itself for power saving but sometimes it couldn't turn on back by randomly move the mouse or by pressing any key from the keyboard, it only solution is to make it hibernate or standby mode.

how does the 8600gs in s41 cope with games like bf2142, oblivion, and tf2?

any one wit experience playing these on the S41?  Does it lag at 1024x768 and full settings?
*
u know wat? S41's 8600M GS can actually turn into 8600M GT (GDDR2 version) after OC, mine can play bioshock in high quality and NFS Carbon in Maximum setting after OC tongue.gif tongue.gif tongue.gif

tried ET: Quake Wars. Unreall Tournament 3 Beta.. so far so good @ med settings@1024*768 @ 1GB RAM
how? just by clocking? imo GT and GS have the different numbers of stream processors, and the GS by default has a higher core clock, shader clock and memory clock compared to the GS

http://www.nvidia.com/object/geforce_8600M.html

just my 2cents.
*
though GT and GS has significant diff on number of stream processors, but hardware spec and real time performance is a diff thing. GT has more stream processor but lower clock speed while GS has higher clock speed and less stream processor, tat y in certain condition, GS may outperform GT if the application suits GS's spec (but it seldom happens lolz). By overclocking, our s41 8600M GS, doesn't improve the hardware advantage but in real time performance, it does perform like a 8600M GT GDDR2 version (eg. Acer 5920G).

For those who wanted to OC, download nTune from nvidia website. The highest setting i can get which is stable one is 575mhz core speed, 777mhz memory speed (default is 500/700mhz).

awaiting Jeffery's OC news..

huh? I OC long time ago liao wor... if u read the post I posted long ago, i have compare the 3dmarks for OC-ed and Non OC.

But recently lar, after OC-ing my laptop only when playing game (around 20 mins only) my laptop started to have some weird sound dunno coming from which part but it still working very fine.

Anyway guys, hv u try UC (Under Clock - my own term) ? If u dun open WIFI and disable all unused device+ Max Battery power saving mode (windows default) + UC (Turn graphic to 125/175mhz instead of default 500/700mhz) i can get 20 mins more juice from the battery. U guys shud try it ^^ my laptop can tahan almost 3hrs with LCD on. tongue.gif
