ASUS Upgrade Manuals

diznavis · 02-10-2005, 06:51 PM

the z80k is very similar to the a2h. to get under the keyboard cover, look for the hole that is 6 holes to the right and 5 holes down from the single row of holes in the keyboard cover. the hole will look slightly different from the rest of them. push something small through that hole, and the cover will slide to the left.

Anyone looking for these manuals can drop me a line. I should have just about all of them on my system somewhere. I didn't realize everyone was so interested in them. I'll see if we can't just host them on our site.

Thanks,

Can anyone help out with an upgrade manual for an A4K?

The closest I can see in the States is Z81K, but I'm not sure they are quite the same.

Thanks,

Jim,

Were you able to make heads or tails out of that general Z8 guide? The only difference is basically the socket for the cpu (p4 or a64).... I'm pretty sure that bracket on the a64 is what you were having a problem with.... but I hope it helped.

Thanks,
Justin

Hi Justin,

sorry, not been here for a short while. Yes, that guide helped. I was hoping for some information on the USB wifi module on the A64 version, as the p4 unit uses a different wifi. Thanks for your help,
Jim

Hey All,
This is my first post but I have been looking for a laptop for a long time, and the W3v seems to fit the bill. My only concern is the upgradeability of the x600 graphics card. Does anybody know if it is possibly to swap the x600 for another chip like the x700 in future? Sorry if this is a bit off topic...

Thanks,
Steve

unless they make the x700 fit the same form factor....it wouldn't be possible... right now you have one form factor for x600 / x700 / x800..... so until they can shrink down an x700, it's not possible.... then they have to continue to use that form facotr... right now I think there are 6 pci express form factors... maybe 5... between nvidia and ati. I think the 6800 go and the x 800 might share the same form factor... but I'm not sure. So things could change.

I'm just saying... don't buy one system over another because of future upgradability of the graphics card..... theoretically it's possible... but you're betting the future on something that changes all the time.

Thanks,
Justin
