if u use wireless alot, suggest at least upgrade to the cheapest wireless adapter

<later section removed by Kanchelsis>

Seems like the 8170 cheapest adapter is already wireless+bluetooth liao ("Internal 802.11 B+G+N Wireless LAN + Bluetooth Combo Module")

I think he meant that you should go for the better Advanced module, which also has Bluetooth

And seriously, get that while buying your laptop; CubeHub say if buying that separately as a post-sales upgrade, it will cost you at least 70 SGD!

Hi Harky

You may want to call the office to check if still under warranty?

If under warranty, you can get it change at no cost and on the spot within the same day.

Thanks

Judging by what I've seen however, Sager seems to be slower than the rest in adopting the new platforms.

I doubt Sager/Clevo was slower than other brands.

In fact, they were the fastest company when changing motherbaord, processer, GPU, USB3.0 etc.. compare to others.

Example,

1. In this Year, JAN, they have released the latest MB and intel chip before any other brands do so. And was halted, when intel chips having problem. We have some laptops sent back till to recall. You cant found any brands in the market carrying the lastest intel chip during DEC/JAN.
   
2. Look that latest processor refresh ( i7-2760QM, i7-2860QM etc...), I thought Sager/Clevo have released it before others do so. You may not found any during the COMEX held in Sept but Sager customers in US or Singapore may have already using the new processor.

Base on the warranty, I think it was not under warranty any more, your 2 year part warranty expiry. Now already OCT 2011.

Only left local labour still valid. Parts have to be bear by you.

You may want to call office to check the price on the parts then decide if you want to change it.

Thanks

Only through Sager reseller or US parts online seller.

The battery will cost about $150 over.

If you don't need to carry around then just use AC adaptor cos even if you bought it, the battery will bloat again. This NP8690 laptop have design error, the HD was located under the battery and itself will give out heat. That heat will cost the battery to bloat.

Last year, we have advise clients to take out the battery when they don't need to carry around.

If you want, you can call us to check the price and I think it will took about 3-4 days to be in stocks.

Thanks, Win7 seems to be fine, but very hard to find the drivers for WinXP...

Also, why must boot using AHCI for Win7 but IDE for WinXP? Can't dual-boot properly in same drive... -> EDIT: Must reinstall WinXP with AHCI enabled liao >_<

And... The laptop bag (inside the box) too weak liao; strap broke just now Have not tried out the backpack yet though
