if u buy 1 x 2GB then u will have to sell off the current 1GB ram in ur note book!

i also got oily keyboard n touchpad...
bought a transparent laptop skin to stick on top of the laptop to avoid the oily finger prints...
and also bought a keyboard skin from taiwan so that i can cover up the keyboard to prevent the keyboard to have more oily effect...
*
can u type with the keyboard skin on? or just to cover it from dust?

u mean the game will slow down or ?
*
not to say slow down, feel like lagging..graphic not smooth and feel slow... like the gc is chocking for power... 8600GS should be able to play most game in the market rite in medium setting.. or issit vista problem? i feel my previous x1600 of s73g is even faster then this (much faster).. btw using 2gb ram..
anyone could advise?

QUOTE(nicks @ Jan 10 2008, 12:17 PM)
u use battery or power adapter while playing games?
*

Hmmm.. if i don't remember wrongly i read before someone posted in the Vista section and said he is experience lagging while playing FIFA07 on Vista.. i guess it could be vista problem..

Did you try playing any other games with your S41 ?
*
yup.. i've played Call of Duty 4 and it's resonably ok.. at first it was laggy also, then i found out my pc setting was on power saver after i finished the game.. doh.gif should had experience better game play if i would to found out earlier..

btw, not only fifa, i've played transformer also.. also laggy compare to my previous x1600...
