Watch out G72GX-RBBX05 users!

Hello people who have Asus G72GX-RBBX05 or plan to buy one.
Got this laptop about 3 weeks ago cause old one (rx05) was discontinued by Asus.
When I'm playing games like F.E.A.R 2 or Crysis, GPU temperature jumps to 80C and over, 85C is critical temp for this graphics card, what makes that GPU down clock to avoid any hardware damages, but this happens in all games, I'm disappointed cause I'm not able to play games, frame rate drops to 1-3 per second after 5 minutes of playing, but wait! This is not a Bios bug again, its real temperature... I checked, Asus shouldn't release not tested laptop, I opened plastic which covers CPU, RAM, and GPU and tried to play that way, temperature lowered couple degrees, I used cooling pad, results were amazing, 15-20 degrees lower! Game were running at 70 and little over, problem was solved, partially because this laptop should running like that without any cooling pads and modifications, I'm using this PC a lot going to friend playing games, Internet, and running around with cooling pad is uncomfortable and uncovered laptop parts could result in damage of them. 2 weeks has passed and I can't return this laptop, also Asus support pushed me to do recovery and clean vents, vents couldn't get dirty after 3 weeks, and recovery not solved this problem, they want me to send that laptop to them but I don't want to be month without laptop!
Then all people who plan to buy this Asus, hold on and you who got it already, you have the same problem?

In my experience, gaming laptops genreally have heat issues regardless of how they're built. There's simply too much heat being generated and not a solid way to dissipate it all, short of making them bulkier. I generally don't recommend these to my customers simply because it's hard to use them without cooling fans or propping up the system.
Computers are NOT appliances, they MUST be maintained! Educate yourself on how to do this and save yourself headaches, repair bills, and lost data!

  • Watch Out For Bad Users

    Hey guys, I would just like to remind all of you that there are still people that you don't know that will try to get you do bad things. Just about an hour ago, two different users randomly started mesessing me and adding me to their contacts. One said that he was bored in college, wanting me to video call him. The other wanted to click on a random link to "like a friends video" on some link I didn't know. Of course I said no to both and declined both then blocked them. So if something like this happens to you and you dont reconize their name, don't click on links, don't give any information, and definantly dont accept request or calls.

    That is just a coincidence, that I picked for user name!

  • Watch Out K7t266 Pro 2 Users! Misadvertised Amd's!

    Anybody in the market for an AMD Athlon XP 1500+ for their k7t266 pro 2 watch out! I bought one from http://www.mwave.com and they had it advertised as having a palomino core, but after much testing and lost sleep over the mobo not booting (see my earlier post: "Help! k7t266 pro 2 won't boot") and purchasing an additional mobo of the same type and different brands of RAM, I finally discovered that the whole problem is that the processor actually is a throughbred core.  I guess after doing a few mods suggested in this forum I could make it work, but I'm not going to chance it.
    DOES ANYBODY KNOW IF AMD MAKES THE ATHLON XP 1500+ IN BOTH PALOMINO AND THOROUGHBRED CORES?  I POSTED IN AMD'S FORUM AND MOST "EXPERTS" SAY ONLY PALOMINO BUT THE FOLLOWING LINK SAYS OTHERWISE SINCE MY PROCESSOR HAS "AXLD1500" ON IT
    http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_cpu_support_detail.php?UID=amdcpu
    THANKS, AND WATCH OUT FOR MISADVERTISED PROCESSORS!

    THE REPLY FROM AMD FORUM'S MODERATORS AT LINK:
    http://forums.amd.com/index.php?showtopic=8318
    (SCROLL ABOUT 3/4 DOWN THE PAGE)
    APPARENTLY MWAVE IS SELLING MOBILE OR "LOW POWER" ATHLON XP'S AS SUPPOSEDLY "PALOMINO" CORED PROCESSORS.  ANYWAY, IF YOU ARE HAVING TROUBLE GETTING A K7T266 PRO 2 TO POST OR BOOT, DOUBLE CHECK YOUR NUMBERS ON YOUR PROCESSOR WITH THE MSI PROCESSOR GUIDE!

  • What do I need to watch out for when installing Mountain Lion from scratch?

    I feel like it's a good moment to erase everything from my computer and reinstall Mountain Lion. I'd like to know which things I should watch out for.
    Most of my important stuff is located on an external hard drive. Some of the applications are located there as well, the other ones I can simply re-downloading, I don't mind this.
    I have my whole iTunes library and my iPhoto library which obviously I'd like to keep. I'm also concerned about my text messages on my iPhone -- they're very important to me. And so are also my Notes, Reminders, and Contacts.
    The thing is, I do not want to do a fresh install and then reload a backup. What would be the sense of making this? None I guess... I'm doing a fresh install becuase I believe there's lots of useless files and maybe even dangerous files on my Mac that I'd like to get rid of. I guess that if I would load the backup, they would all be here again...
    Is it maybe possible to load only certain things from Time Machine, for example my iPhoto or iTunes library?
    Maybe someone can help me here, totally new with this...

    Alright, I'm slowly getting ready to do this. Apparently I do not need an install DVD but I can just press CMD+R to get to the option to do a fresh install, that's why my Mac didn't come with an install DVD (that's what I've read and what I've been told at least).
    Now I'm wondering... do I need to copy those items from the User folder at all? I mean, I have a complete backup on an external hard drive. I could just go there in the folders and select what I would like to copy to my Mac again, suchs as my music library or photo library. Is there any risks? I'm worried about even the smallest things, like creation dates changing and stuff like this. They mean something to me

  • Major Problem with Multiple External Hard Drives! Watch Out!

    I've almost completely given up on Aperture and gone back to Iphoto due to a major glitch in Aperture that actually cost me loss of some wedding photos (approximately 20)! Watch out for this, it is damaging.
    I have 3 external hard drives, and of course when you mount disk images and cards you gain them in finder on the left hand panel. It seems the order of the mount is crucial to Aperture locating things and consequently if the mount order changes Aperture can no longer locate the files, and worse if you import to hard drive it doesn't import to anywhere!
    The situation I have is that the other day I was importing wedding images and was up to the last card (fortunately we had 2 photographers so the loss isn't as detremental) and the power went off. Happens a lot where we are.
    So upon power comeing back on the external hard drives remounting, I have figured out they mounted in a different order to what they were previously.
    So upon going back to Aperture I went back to importing to the same external hard drive location. It had no warning of a problem and seemed to import without a problem. However once it had finished, on clicking on the thumbnails the images wouldn't load. I imported again and the same problem happened, however I didn't realise and had deleted the files. When I realised I tried to locate the files using spotlight. They are no where to be found!
    Also because of the re-order of my hard drives aperture can't locate previously imported (referenced) files. I can find these ones on the hard drive, so I haven't lost them, but it will take unmounting and mounting several times in different orders to try and get them back because I do not remember which way they were mounted!
    This is terrible! Aperture is a mess. This sort of thing shouldn't happen. Besides it's still too slow and it has slowed my production time substantially. The only thing it has over Iphoto is it doesn't degrade the JPEG each adjustment. However in Iphoto this is negligable, it can't be noticed, and I am not going to sacrifice time, lost photos for a minute level of extra quality.
    Aperture get your act together. I wasted my money back when I purchased the full price 1.0 version.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem?

    Hardly high and not mighty.
    But, to your points.
    It sounds like you do have a UPS, not a surge protector, though it probably provides this in addition.
    The fact that your external drives dropped during import is the same as removing a drive without unmountingf it, yes? Who knows what state the inode/allocation tables look like and no surprise that any clusters part updated were dropped. They'll rebuild from the cast complete mirror, but in-flight changes would not necessarily have been written to both sets of tables.
    I cannot understand why (for you) Aperture appears to need the drives mounting in the same order. Disk Utility may show something, but I suspect you tried this.
    However, and this I do challenge, the fact that you blamed Aperture and stated categorically it behaves a certain way when it does so only under some odd or errored hardware condition is not the thoughful optinion of an experienced Mac user. I wish you no offence but despite what you observed and your experience, I do wish to correct your sweeping statement.
    The other comment I would challenge is that "I'm writing for people to watch out for and to trial ..." I would agree with that statement if that was any part of the context of the original post. No, your original post was far more negative and accusatory.
    Your other new comments are clearly based on issues causing you angst. I have felt most of them, but at the end, it is software. Perfect? No, but I haven't had a crash since 1.5.1. Far from perfect? Yes, and many features missing that may be added in v2, v3, v.... . Best for my purposes despite its faults? Yes, by far. It is the fastest and most productive way for me to get to end-of-job.
    Now my question for you since: what in your view is a superior alternative? Many on this forum are professional/serious amateur photographers who want some software company to succeed. Perhaps the reason we contribute to the Aperture forum is because we've found it the best horse to ride and therefore want to see it improve.

  • Is there an easy way to find out if a user has a message in their voicemail.

    Is there an easy way to find out if a user has a message in their voicemail from the
    UNITY subscriber page? Or anywhere I can look to see if they do.  I don't have access to the exchange servers.  We are currently running UNITY 5.0(1).  thanks

    The only way you'll be able to do that is to login to Outlook Web Access, or possibly setup an IMAP client to that user's mailbox or have TAC run the DohPropTest in attach mode to return the contents of the user's inbox.  If the first two don't work, I'd go with the latter and let TAC help you verify if there are any messages in the inbox that are unread.
    Hope that helps,
    Brad

  • How can I find out if a user has an active session

    How can I find out if a user has an active session or sessionObject in the application Server.
    When a user logs on to my web-application, I want him to be able to see a
    list of all the other users that are also loged on. To do this I need to get a
    list of all the session objects avaliable in the sever at that perticular moment?
    In J2EE 2.1 I found the class "javax.servlet.http.HttpSessionContext" with the method "getIds()"
    that returned all the session Id's. By using the method getSession(java.lang.String sessionId)
    from the same class, you could then retrieve the sessionObject.
    But these methods are depricated (and want to be able to use the
    latest version of J2EE).
    Is there any other way to do this?
    I'm using JBoss application server.

    Check out HttpSessionListener -> http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.3/techdocs/api/javax/servlet/http/HttpSessionListener.html
    Essentially what you have to do is implement this interface. You also have to register the listener in your web.xml, like this:
    <listener>
        <listener-class>
            package.name.YourListener
        </listener-class>
    </listener>sessionCreated() will get called each time the app server creates a session and sessionDestroyed() will get called each time the app server invalidates a session. You could have a Map that contains all the active sessions, and a method for printing a list of all of the active sessions.

  • How to find out if a user is logged into a windows XP or VISTA machine

    Hi,
    Could somebody please tell me how to find out remotely over a LAN, whether a user is logged into a computer that is running windows XP/VISTA or not? How can this be programmatically done if we know the name of the remote machine?
    Thanks.
    Ravisara

    Hi,
    Thanks for all the replies.
    Actually it seems that my question has either been misunderstood or has been badly phrased by me.
    What I want to know precisely is the way to find out if a user is logged into a machine or not. Say for example in a LAN there are three computers called A, B and C. If my Java program is running on machine C, how can the program check whether a user is logged into machine A? Assuming JRE is present in all three machines, the machines have as their OS windows XP or VISTA and all machines are connected to a windows domain(Windows 2003 server based network)
    The idea here is to identify all the computers in a network that users are not logged into and then to remotely shutdown those computers in order to minimize wastage of electricity(preferably after a particular time of the day in an organization).
    Any replies would be much appreciated.
    Kind regards,
    Ravisara

  • How to find out what computers user logged on? (not at the moment but history)

    Domain Controller: Windows 2012 R2 - Unfortunately, I don't manage DC but my own OU (computers and users)
    I have a user working mid-night shift reporting that he received error message "The group policy client service fail the logon, access denied". He is using multiple PC and he did not remember which PC gave him the error message. How do I find out
    which computers he logged on? I have access to my domain OU. I can manage my own Computers and Users objects in my domain (no domain controller in my department)
    I searched internet but most of them are finding out which computer user is currently logging on - not the history, thanks.
    Thang Mo

    To fix this error, please follow the steps given below and check if it helps you to resolve the issue :
    1. Logon to the machine with a machine administrator account (assuming this issue is with a domain account, if not logon to the machine using another account with administrative privilege).
    2. Move the machine to a work-group from domain. (If it was part of one work-group then change it to another one or join a domain.) You could do this through Control Panel\System and Security\System and then Change Settings.
    3. Restart the machine and logon with a machine administrator account.
    4. Delete your user profile data (or move it a different location) completely from c:\users. "C" in my case is system directory but if you have a different one then use that one.
    5. Join the machine back to domain account (or to work-group that the machine was originally joined to), and restart the machine.
    6. Logon with your domain account that you were having trouble with. Keep fingers crossed.
    If all goes well, you should be logged on.
    Coming to the second query, if the user are in DC, you can try our free tool
    Lepide last logon reporter that will help you to get the logon details by specifying Domain Name/IP of the Domain Controller,  User Name, Common Name and Last Logon Time.

  • How to find out if a user is disabled in xpress code?

    I have an active sync form and I'm trying to determine as one of my checks if a user is disabled. I've tried using waveset.disabled, but that always returns null. I also tried waveset.organization to see if the user is in the 'terminate' organization, but it only always returns 'Top' and not 'Top:Terminate'
    Any ideas how I can find out if a user account is disabled?
    Thanks for any info!

    Hi,
    These two attributes you can only get in userview.
    waveset.disabled (this is always null if user is not disble else return true if user is disble)
    waveset.organization (will give you the whole org path like Top:xyz)
    take a dump of your userview and see what you are getting there.
    Use below code in you form/WF to see the userview on console
    <block trace='true'>
    <invoke name='toXml'>
    <ref>userview</ref> // user your userview object name
    </invoke>

    Manju Gowda

    Hi 
    You have to get the "RPC Client Access" log file in your CAS server. There you can see a column called "client-mode" and it has two modes such
    as "classic" and "cached". From there you can get the two different client assess modes and their corresponding users.
    probably take this file openup on excel and filter to see the two modes
