The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Look on the Asus Support Forums as well as do a generic search for the g71 on NBR. I wish I had done both of those for my G2S, but then again hindsight is 20/20.
