Yes, check out the W2, V6, and the W3. I may have missed some. Edit: Yes, I did. The Z83 and Z93 also. There might be more, but they might be older models though like the W5.
I dont play online, I think the computer is much more fun to play against than some nerdy kids online. I just wish I could play Counter Strike and World of Warcraft without having to go online and see all these idiots screwing up the whole thing. On NBA Live i play with some friends every now and then, not into playing strangers or some ghetto-fabulous poser online. But as for my "fast internet connection", I don't mind downloading some demo to test out for all you...
Hey, anytime. My cable service at home is a whole lot faster than my T1 connection at work. Heck, after getting a powerhouse of a laptop, I'd test it out on anything! ...that is if I've got the time.
Just downloaded the demo and I've got the omega drivers installed. It plays just fine. Well, there's your solution. Edit: Also thats with full settings and the Force DirectX option. Excellent graphics & gameplay, I have to admit.
Well first off, you should really use the current driver provided by Asus on their support page (support.asus.com). You can't go wrong with those. If you don't want that, I would suggest the Omegadrivers (www.omegadrivers.net) over the one you downloaded. I tried on the ATI mobility drivers on my Z70V way back, but it didnt work out too well. Some may say it's the same as Asus', but I beg to differ.
You won't need a Floppy, you can just use WinFlash that was included with your computer. You can also download it here: http://dlsvr03.asus.com/pub/ASUS/nb/..._XP_050127.zip Also, the date on this Bios (10/5) is the same as the bios revision that came with the Z70VA, I dont know why they listed it as it being updated 10/5. Maybe because they just made a "Z70VA" selection on the support site this week.
Yes, the W1N was outdated, but there were many talks of the refresh coming out for it in the US. The W1N line has ended here in the US, but you can see the current line up on W1's on the Asus Global site: http://www.asus.com/products3.aspx?l...me=W1%20Series You'll have to get them overseas.
There are some dealers out there that are willing to upgrade them for the end user and probably just picking up on the warranty through themselves. I guess it doesnt really void the warranty either- if it's just a memory upgrade. "Technically" you will, but there's no seal over the memory slot or anything like that. So if there were a problem down the line, you can just pop it out and send it in for repairs. As for the "best place"... most places sell them for about the...
Yes Asus is a real company, one of best motherboard producers in the world. They just happen to work on Whitebooks (notebook barebones), their own line of notebooks, and is an ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) for other companies such as Apple and Sony. The quality of Asus laptops are far superior to many other laptops that you may find at a local Best Buy or CompUSA. Many have great styling with Aluminum covers, magnetic lids, to Carbon fiber chasis. They make many...
Well there is the Z83V, located here: http://www.ynot2k.com/products/laptops/z83v/z83v.htm You can read up on it there, there's a review posted there and if you check out their forums, there's also discounts available. It doesnt have SATA, but you don't really see much of a gain with SATA on a laptop.
