I have no idea what you did but if you have not already solved this prob. i suggest right clicking on computer(in the start menu)>manage>Disk Management. If your hard drive is not physically trashed or fried you should see it under the section here. If it says Unallocated or free space right click on it and assign it a path. If this does not work then your drive is most likely fried by xp

Try these solutions: 1. If you do not allready have a virus program buy or find a free one (you can also install a trial of nortron). Scan your computer and fix all problems

2. install a new nvidia driver like this one "http://forums.laptopvideo2go.com/topic/24003-forceware-185-85/", to clear your driver I recomend driver sweeper. search for it on google or yahoo to install

3. If neither of these steps work right click computer>manage>Disk Management*. look in the status column and check if everything there says "healthy" if not then reply telling me waht it says.

*WHATEVER YOU DO DO NOT DELETE ANYTHING IN HERE

Hardrive problem

in discussion Asus G1S Wiki Forum / Problems and Solutions » Hardrive problem

Hello everybody

I am new of this forum.

I would need some help by you guys.

I have been happy of my Asus G1S for the last two years. Actually, since a couple of weeks I am having big probles:

Windows (VISTA 32 bit) keeps shutting down my pc showing a blue screen in which it says that there is problem.

By running the diagnostic tool, Windows says I have an hardware problem.
So I tried to reinstall VISTA two times…but it happens always the same thing after some minutes.

Note that, when the machine doesn't turn off by itself, it gets really slow in downloading and installing the Vista updates.
Do you say my pc is fucked up or is there a hope to recovery it?

Please help me

Bye

Andrea

Hardrive problem by antarcticoantarctico, 1252248356|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover

has anyone tried a cooling pad? I want to know what the results were and if it helped at all with the stutter/temperature.

HEY GUYS

IM BACK WITH A LOOOOONG STORY ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. in english i cant say many of that things i live to see in this time, but i try to say a little bit…

So after 8 MONTHS!!!! i became my money back from ASUS. my seller writted all 3hours e-mails to ASUS in taiwan. and on the last day of my warranty, i become the money back…

I had send this notebook over 6 six times to germany for repairing etc…

they let me wait over many weeks without answers…

so that was the last ASUS product i ever buyed. that damn support i never have been before.

this series have problems with temps. i think all modells of this series had it. so i wish you good luck to became the money back for this bullshit. all my hardware at home are from ASUS, i hope nothing goes down of that…

for asking i will be here…

greez

the upper post is wrong. after 4 hours of playing far cry2 it started again to shutter.
so i googled a time and found a real solution … working for many hours of gaming.
at first you have to clean up your fan of your graphic card and remove every dust (open the silver tape , under it is a lot of dust)
then you could remove tape at the cover (there are may rips). know there's more air for the fan.
at least you have to install the 177.79 driver from laptopvideo2go.com
just go into standyby an after this is goes upper than 96 and you can play without lag.
after tuning and removing some things i ve got an temp of 93 after playing a lot
i

HI
i think that i have a solution.
just download the driver called 182.68 from this side: http://www.asustreiber.de/downloads/windows-vista/treiber/65-vga-nvidia
i'm sry that it's in german but i come from there and don't know the english page

get a life matteo its clearly humour

Re: Don't assume we messed up anything by adamanxyadamanxy, 1249754296|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover

No. Max temperature of GPU ever (playing Far Cry 2 for about 3 hrs) is 70 degree Celsius, and CPU at 60 degree Celsius.

Re: Satisfied with your G1S gaming experience? by ilguerriero2003ilguerriero2003, 1249630641|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover

Yeah very nice results. I still haven't found a game I can't play, but for Crysis I had to lower resolution (800 x 600) and play with high graphics settings (although with 2x antialising). COD 4 performed very well on 1024 x 768 and so Far Cry 2 (I'm mentioning only heavy duty games). Also I play Medieval 2 on very high with max resolution. The only game with low fps is Empire: Total War, but with the new patch (1.3) I'm expecting much better performance. I've heard that Arma 2 is the heaviest game now in the market, and I wonder if anyone here has tried it. Anyway I'll buy it next week maybe and report you guys the results.

Re: Satisfied with your G1S gaming experience? by ilguerriero2003ilguerriero2003, 1249629958|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover

I don't think the bad performance is related to the operating system. I have Vista, and when I switch to battery mode, the performance goes down considerably. When the laptop switches to battery, it limits the usage of power to the cpu or gpu, so don't expect to play heavy games in battery mode (even though Tomb Rider Anniversary isn't Crysis, it still has this generation graphics).

I have the same problem. I was trying to play NFS MW, but it was workin' good only for 5 minutes, and then lagging all the time. Maybe should I change drivers? Anyone tried cooling pad? I have no idea what to do. I bought it as gaming laptop, but it's working worse than my friends ATI mobility 3470 or Ati mobility 2600XT. In the first test in 3dmark06 I have 4400 3dmarks, but when I do 2nd or third test it's going under 4000. I've g1s with 7700cpu 2,4ghz, 3gb RAM, 200GB HDD 7200RPM

Hey moustache,
I installed the way it said on the wiki and have pretty fast load times. Didn't have an issue getting video and sound running (though the webcam is a bit screwy). What media are you installed on; usb stick, external hd, internal hd? I'm on an external USB drive and it runs silky smooth.

I've had my Asus G1S for almost two years now and it has been to the shop about 5 times.. I'm not sure if its just my laptop which was faulty.. the motherboard just got replaced and the hard disk twice previously =/. I still like it though, when its working!
