Asus Laptop Users Thread - Part 2

[Steiner ver. Ka]

anyone has checked up on their warranties with asus? I tried checking how many days my warranty has left with no success since each time I'm directed to their main help page.

Quite anxious to find out a concrete answer since I acquired my mine at the it show and heard a few stories about warranties not matching up to what was stated at the time of purchase.

just go asus website and register your laptop's serial number. if the serial has been registered before, it will be shown

switched on my laptop and it took only 1 minute 25 sec to boot up to desktop O_O
sudden increment in speed. will post picture of msconfig in awhile

my msconfig startup items

probably 1min 25s is fast enough for HDD lah.

if u want faster then u have to switch to ssd like me lor, then can boot in 14s.

sashaBEAR, we go step by step since ur msconfig is way too many to clear. Check those items that u uncheck or just check 'Normal Startup.' as we are going to clean unnecessay programs.
Clearing unnecessay programs will free up the startup entries.
Could u do a print screen of your add/remove programs so I could advice u what things to remove or update? (This process may take some hours.)

[86technie]

, why so many? Sorry bro, not that I don't want to help but

I got to write for each program:

• What is it for
• Is the program link to another program
• Is it necessay
• Latest version for that program
• Where to get installer

So many, like that it would take very long time to complile.

Bring back to challenger, exchangeable within 7days. May save ur time instead of gng to asus repair centre.

I jus bought a older model U46SV from challenger today.
Price cheaper than IT show price.. Budget i5-2430M processor lightweight notebook with 8gb ram, geforce GT540M, long batt life(per brochure, yet to test). Freebie Dun have X-in-1 kit, but got a cheapo speaker, asus bag&mouse, antivirus. All for $899.

I did that before but upon more checking the purchase and warranty date does match up. My concerns now are that the info for the registered model is wrong. It is shown incorrectly as the N45SL type while my actual purchase was for the N45SF type. Would this invalidate my warranty for whatever reason?

On another note the start date for the extended warranty is "enabled" on the purchase date as well. Shouldn't it be after the included two years of warranty is up?

Anyone able to share their experiences on this would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

Can check with you all on some technical stuff as I am not good at such thing.

For the Asus U36JC with Geforce 310M, can it be used to play diablo 3?

Minimum requirement: GeForce® 7800 GT
Memory

​

512MB
Memory Bandwidth (GB/sec) 54.4
RAMDACs (MHz) 400

Recommended requirement:GeForce® 8600M GT
Core Clock (MHz) 475
Shader Clock (MHz) 950
Memory Clock (MHz) 700
Maximum Memory 512MB

310M
Memory up to 1Gb ( so should be ok )
Clock up to 800Mhz( so should be ok)

Conclusion. Can play. Correct?​

Is there any news about the Asus new K series in SG yet? I am referring to the new K45/K55 with ivy bridge processor.

 

[WhiteFox]

Looking at a 13.3" laptop for office app. priority is it must be thin and light. Which series should I look into? I assume it's the U3 series yes?
