ASUS G73JH-RBBX​05 Warranty - is it Global?

Is the 1-year warranty on the ASUS G73JH-RBBX05  a global warranty or only valid at ASUS service centres in North America?
Is there a warranty card included in the box that specifically states it is a global warranty? No fine print that excludes global warranty service?

I would check Asus' website.  MFGs rarely include any type of paperwork in PC packaging anymore these days.  I would assume the warranty is not just valid in the US, but I know if that's the case, it will be different in every country it's applied in and often times there are different phone numbers to call.
Nothing I post is an official statment of Best Buy or Geek Squad, it is only a helpful opinion!

  • Asus G73JH GPU issues

    Help!
    I am currently running Photoshop CC on an Asus G73JH (i7 Q720 @ 1.60Ghz), 6 GB of Ram, Windows 7 Professional.
    The video card is the ATI Mobility Radeon HD5870 (1GM dedicated VRAM).
    The BIOS and vBIOS are both current.
    The ATI driver is current: 8.683.0.0, dated 12/17/2009.
    However, everytime I start Photoshop CC, I get the following message:
    3D features require a minimum of 512MB of vRam.  Photoshop has detected less than that on your system.
    Under Help, System Info, it says that the GPU sniffer has crashed:

    You gpu dirver is way out of date.  You state The ATI driver is current: 8.683.0.0, dated 12/17/2009.  You should be using catalyst 13.9 that came out about 3 months ago.  Anything less than 13.4 would be trouble.
    You need to get driver from ATI website, not MS.

  • Asus G73Jh overheatin​g?

    Recently my laptop, an Asus G73Jh, has started overheating I think. Whenever I'm playing a game, whether it's EVE, MW2  or the Witcher 2, my screen goes black, then it shutsdown after 5-10 minutes. The right side of my keyboard, presumably my graphics card, gets warmer as well. I've tried blowing it out with air duster to no avail. What can I do to fix this?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    When you're talking about heating problems like that, there really isn't anything simple you can do. You can research your model online to see if this is a known issue, and see if a BIOS update or something fixes it, or buy a chill-mat to work around the problem.
    However, if you really want it fixed, this type of issue really needs to be brought in to be looked at. Taken apart to see if a fan has gone bad, or what not.

  • ASUS G73JH-RBBX05

    Can someone help me out?
    I want to know if this laptop :
    Asus - Laptop with Intel® Core™ i7 Processor - Black
     G73JH-RBBX05
    Will be available on August on this Best Buy store:
    Laredo TX 7905 San Dario Ave,  78045-7253
    If its possible to know of course..  Thanks!

    I don't think there is any way to tell.  Heck, Asus refreshes their product lineups frequently enough that it may be discontinued and replaced with a different model by then.

  • I cannot re-install iTunes on my PC Asus G73Jh with Windows 7 Intégral

    I tried much, I spent 2 hours by phone with the apple support, I completely followed recommendations from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923?viewlocale=fr_FR.
    The installation seems good, and at the end it says: Impossible to suppress the prior iTunes version.
    My son, who has the same Asus model than me, has the same problem.
    Thank you for help

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.

    Sounds like faulty hardware or some bad video drivers. Try running the startup diagnostics through the BIOS if it has that feature or whatever diagnostic software ASUS installed on your machine.

  • 3-year warranty for UK Higher education for free

    I found links associated with the free 3-year warranty for UK Higher education.
    _http://apple.procureweb.ac.uk/index.htm_
    _http://store.apple.com/Catalog/ukinst/Images/salespolicies_individual.html
    the second link is the *Terms and Conditions for Higher Education Individual Purchases*.
    You can see the tenth part:
    10.1.1 All Apple-branded desktop and portable computer products shall be subject to a *36 calendar month warranty* period commencing from the date of purchase (the date of your invoice)
    Is the warranty above equivalent to apple care? And the warranty coverage is global?

    Hey Viv, I know the answer to your question!
    If you order a mac from the U.K's higher education website (university/ over the phone) you get three years warranty + one year phone support for FREE. This is not Applecare.
    Applecare = Three years warranty + Three years phone support. This will cost you, but alot cheaper if you are under higher education. E.g I brought an Aluminium iMac and Applecare costed me only £45(normal price £139 I think). To take advantage of this price, you must buy Applecare uplift - EMEA CC- HE CONTRACT UPLIFT(at bottom of customising your mac page) the same time as your mac.
    Last year I didn't know the difference so I didn't buy Applecare uplift for my Macbook, but wish I had. You should buy it because after your phone support expires, the only way Apple will fix it if you take it to an official store, where with Applecare you can phone in for free and they collect your mac from you, fix it and return it to you for free.
    e.g I had a faulty battery during my one year free phone service. I called them up and they sent me a new battery. If my phone service expired after one year, I would of had to bring my macbook to the store (calling them without phone support would cost like £35). Also you may need to make an appointment online before you can take your mac to the store.
    Macbook's Applecare cost roughly £52 if I remember, but Applecare for Macbooks to the public cost £200.
    If you buy Applecare the coverage is global, but the standard higher education warranty isn't I think.

  • Airport Express and Warranty Conditions

    Hi All
    Just wondering if anyone can direct me to the warranty conditions for the Airport Express. Whether it is a domestic or global warranty etc.
    Any help would be appreciative as I`m having no luck finding it anywhere!
    Thanks!

    But unfortunately this is not true. It is one year warranty but not global. I was proved this wrong in Japan, Apple Store Ginza, as I was refused a replacement regardless of the fact that I had my Tax Invoice as well as it being covered by APP with my laptop. Although they were keen in offering me to buy a new one.
    I was told that due to the fact that each country has its own WiFi standards that they must comply by, a foriegn Airport Express couldn`t get replaced even though I could be living in the country for another year and a half. Funny note to mention - I mentioned that if i was to get it fixed and sent back to me, wouldn`t I be going against Japanese standards? The answer I got was from the 'genius' was "Yes you would, but everyone does it". So why can't i get it replaced again?
    Hence this is why I`m needing to find the specific documentation to save me sending it back overseas as there is no warranty if the item is damaged or even lost through the post.

  • MSI Warranty on broken motherboard

    Hey there,
    I have a board, Socket 754, MSI K9NGM-V and purchased on this date: 03/07/06 and a few weeks ago the board failed to boot. So I heard that this board is still covered by MSI
    s 3 year warranty.
    I'm in Malaysia - so of course I can't even send it back to the retailer. How am I going to send this board back for repair/replacement if this is covered by the warranty? Thank you.

  • HP PSC 2410 All-In-One - use in Windows 7 64-bit environment

    Hi,
    I have had this HP PSC 2410 All-In-One printer for some years now and it has worked pretty flawlessly in a Windows XP Pro SP3 environment for that time.
    Some months ago, I purchased a new computer system and went to the Windows 7 64-bit OS (not interersted in Windows 8 at all) and whilst I have installed the printer successfully and it works, the software suite that came with the printer on the CD will not install for this environment and therefore I no longer have access to the various Maintenance Options that were available under the Windows XP Pro OS, such as the cleaning and Fax options.
    Searching for something for the Windows 7 64-bit OS threw up two options - the driver update and the utilities tool wizard.   After going down the driver update route, no software suite was available and in fact the update stated that the driver was installed by Windows 7 automatically.  That seems to be the case as the printer works fine in print mode, scan mode (from the desktop menu) and it detects SD cards through the slots.
    However, there is no software to allow me to fax or clean or do any of the other options available under the HP Suite that came on the CD.
    Going down the Utility route got me downloading a file - HPPIW.EXE - that would look at my current printer installation and check with HP for any updates.   After many attempts, the utility simply CANNOT find my printer even though it is installed, works properly and even windows sees it!   No amount of recycling the ON/OFF button or rebooting the computer allows this utility to detect the printer at all.  It is installed via USB on the Windows 7 64-bit Family PC and windows updates are always fully updated.
    I am currently considering the purchase of a new HP OfficeJet 8600 Pro Plus to use as the family printer with the Windows 7 system - and move this HP PSC 2410 upstairs to connect it directly to my Windows XP Pro SP3 personal desktop and use the original CD to install it.  My Canon IP4200 Pixma has just died on my personal PC upstairs.
    However, until I do that, is there any of the Software Suite available that would work in the Windows 7 environment that would allow me to use the various functions such as Fax and cleaning that were available under the old XP environment and obtained via the CD?  Was the Suite of software ever updated for Windows 7?
    Thank you,

    Hi BAW9DV,
    I hate to hear you are having issues.  While there will not is not a specific software utility that will complete the tasks desired, maintenance can be completed from the front panel of the unit.  Windows also has an application for faxing from the computer as well that may work with this device. Please see the information below that may enable the functions desired. 
    Faxing:
    1. Use Windows Fax and Scan
       A. Type Windows Fax and Scan into search box
       B. Configure fax machine for use.  Click Here to view Microsoft documentation for use.  Note: This is a 3rd party website. HP and I are not responsible for content of this site.
       C. Select New Fax
    Maintenance tasks from front panel:
    Running the Clean Print Cartridges Utility Click Here
    Printing setf-test page Click Here
    Evaluate test page Click Here
    Align the Cartridges: Press setup-Press 5, then press 2
    If you the work around options are not acceptable the 8600 model would most certainly meet your needs when compared with this unit.  However I encourage you to contact HP to see what upgrade options are available for this unit. It will most likely be another Photosmart model/type unit, but in many cases upgrades are offered at a discounted rate to our valued out of warranty customers.  Global contact information can be accessed Here. 
    P.S.  If you upgrade through technical support, be sure to ask about carepacks.  Extended warranties may also be available at a discounted rate for upgrading. 
    Hope this helps!

  • Will Mac Mini Work?

    I am going to America soon and I hope to buy a Mac Mni while I am there,But I live in Ireland,Europe.So my question is Will the Mac Mini that I buy in America work in Ireland,Europe?Please if you have an answer,Please answer me!
    Thank You,
    Seàn.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Yes, a Mac mini bought in the US will function perfectly well in Ireland - indeed anywhere in the world. The power adapter is rated for 110-230 volts, 50-60Hz so it will work anywhere. You will, of course, need an adapter to allow the US 3-pin plug to be used in an Irish power socket, but that's all you'll need to get it working.
    The warranty is also global, so the system will be covered even once outside the US.

  • What's a fair price for a used GX660R 060US?

    Excellent condition and comes with two cases and a cooler. Only has 1 HD.

    Going by ebay, it has the Asus G73 from that same era with pretty much the same components. $600 there. I'd wager that around $500 give or take $50 depending on condition is pretty fair.

  • Notebook reliably locks up completely - cold restart required

    I have a Fujitsu P7120 notebook. I bought it used several years ago and I love it, despite its age. It was very reliable and stable...but a bit slow. I decided to upgrade the stock 4400RPM drive with an SSD (http://www.kingspec.com/solid-state-dis … f-mlcj.htm), and that's where the problems started.
    Honestly, I don't know if the problem is the SSD, but I never had this problem before.
    Now, after powering up just fine, the notebook WILL freeze. I can't say when. Sometimes, it's just a few minutes. Sometimes hours. But always less than a day. It freezes hard. Only a complete cold restart will work.
    It's VERY frustrating. The SSD is MUCH faster. It has given a new lease on life to this fanless wonder.
    I've installed from scratch more than once, and did a complete fsck of the drive. None of it helps. Since this problem didn't exist before I installed the SSD, I suspect that this is the problem.
    My install is a standard Arch install with X and OpenBox WM and Grub bootloader. I've read a bit about the new GPT partition table replacement. Might this help?
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Just wanted to add onto this that I have the exact same problem. I've got Arch (well, ArchBang - I'll be doing a plain Arch install soon to see if that's somehow the problem) installed on an Asus G73JH. Wonderful machine, everything works like a dream, except for it hard locking every now and then. Now, this baby has a 600GB 7200RPM HDD in it, so this problem might not be strictly related to your SSD - unless the causes are completely separate and unrelated, which is always possible. I'll try to get some more detailed information up here when I have some more time, but right now it's crunch time, and I just wanted to post a quick "me too!" while I had time.
