Hi,
I have a G1s that needs to go back to repairs and although I still have the supplier's warranty I am very far away from them so I'll try to take the laptop to asus.
I have upgraded the hdd, ram and also added the intel turbo-cache, so this all should void the original warranty.... are they strict with this?
all those parts can be changed in less than 2 minutes using the access bays at the bottom... and as far as I can tell it is the motherboard that's broken... but this is after one whole year of flawless operation...
if I manage to downgrade to the original settings, will they still 'find out'? Since I don't know the original brands that asus uses, it would be hard to get it back to `normal` anyways but I could get the specs right somehow I guess....
any ideas??

AFAIK, upgrading the hdd and ram don't constitute voiding the warranty. The turbo memory shouldn't either.
I'm not 100% sure on this though. -
ClearSkies Well no, I'm still here..

The only thing that does void the warranty is upgrading the CPU, where the yellow Void sticker will have to be removed.
-
One mention that should be made is that if the upgraded components are the cause of the problem, they have a right to refuse repairs.
