My C90s Problems.. Need help

My new lappy is neat and nice.. except when it causes these problems..

First problem!
Wireless stops working when I unplug AC cord.
I've disabled the option of turning off wireless adapter to power save..
I've checked the driver via Window's auto check and it says driver is up to date
Now I don't know what the problem is....

2nd.. does it always take forever to hibernate? It takes mine a few minutes.
And if I hibernate by closing the lid but accidentally open the lid before it hibernates, it'll freeze w/ a black screen and just run really fast (fan blowing) without doing anything.

What to do?
Thanks

 

I had a similar situation today with coming out of hibernation. It turns out it was my display drivers. Did you recently update/change your display drivers? I was using 165.01 when the problem existed. Now I'm using 163.44. Its been running good so far...

 

Haven't heard that before... Like the graphics driver or something else?
How do I check my version?

 

o.o go to ur my computer, properties, device manger, find your video card, properties, it should show the verision somewhere in the driver, or , use the nvidia utility, and find it under info. also whats your bios verision? .... because it might be in compability due to ram... since that caused 90% of the problems I've seen ... if not newest, go on asus site and flash ur bios

 

I thought that's where you look them up.. except mine have different #'s

The driver version of the GPU is 7.15.11.117
Bios is 60.84.5c.0.a2

 

thats 151.11. Upgrade to 163.69 or 158.xx (if you want to OC)

 

hibernating a laptop or computer with 3GB takes time, general rule, the more ram(after a certain amount), the more time it takes to hibernate because the O.S. as to copy all the contents from your RAM memory to the hard drive and hard drives are slower. and 3GB is quite a lot of RAM. Well, but minutes as you say that is too much...doesn't take minutes on mine, it takes about 40 seconds i think.....but it does take about 10-15 seconds to boot from hibernate

to solve the freeze problem when you close the lid before it hibernates....that should be because the computer tries toi standby at the same tiume it is trying to hibernate...go to control panel and power options, and where it says "when i close the lid" select "do nothing"

 

well your lucky your c90 even goes into hibernate, my laptop just stays on regarless of sleep mode,shut down, hibernate. When i do these things it just wakes back up, or restarts when i shut down.
I noticed even when i plug the ac power into the laptop it turns on by itself!
When the ac power is out all those problems go away.

 

are u using a c90? ... if thats the case then u got a ram imcompability pretty much for sure, if other laptop, do the same, flash ur bios to the newest verision and try

 

Where do I download the new GPU driver..? And how to install..?

I suck =(

 

Yup i am using a C90 and i have the latest 801 bois.
Hmmm im using crucial ram, i guess there is a problem with it!!
Darn! now what?
I have to buy new ram?

 

xchange it with your buyer ... and mail asus that you got a problem, and identify the memory make, like the lil chip u see on it, and put those code in too.... if u have other pc5300 soidmm laying around u can stick them in and try, but the chance of you having a bad unit is slim, but its still a possiblity too...

 

do you think asus will fix the problem in the next bios maybe?

 

And new problem...
Sound sometimes goes completely off after hibernation.. maybe in combination of unplugging AC adapter.

Also... Anybody has problems with the AC adapter getting super super hot?
Or is it just because mine is 90V?

 

how do you check if its 90V or 120V?

 

On it, it will be written the V and A.

It's 90 & 120W BTW. W is V*A

 

lawl, off toipc, physics geeks XD ....

 

well mine says input: 100-240V~1.5A
Output: 19V 2.74A

So by the output and V*A= 19*2.74=52.06W
hmmmm is that right? something must be wrong here....

The model number is: ADP 90SB
So im guessing its 90 LoL

 

Yea sorry I meant 90W

Still having problem w/ sound/wireless
Dunno how to update drivers

Please help

 

unless you got it form btotech chances are that you have a 90w (gearedtoplay reported to ship c90s with newer gpu with 120w adapters)

 

the 120W still isn't avaiable as a stand-alone product.

 

Should I try to switch for a 120W then?

Still more concerned w/ sound/wireless...

 

New problem.. god damnit..

Webcam crashes my comp when I try to use it via MSN
Tried 3 times..

 

what system are you using? have you installed driver corrctly? have you checked for hardware conflicts? and bad ram section?

 

Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit

And I've asked for help on the other stuff cuz I don't know how to do it.. at least I'm not sure

 

yeah it happens on it.

I gt 6 BSOD, then they stopped. Try on battery mode.

 

Still getting BSOD.

So how do I update drivers and whatnot?

 

Now I get BSOD when I leave the comp alone.... I wasn't doing anything on the comp and it just BSOD for no reason lol

 

sounds like a heat crash, or possibly ram incompatability.

 

for heat crash u can either try sticking it in ur cooler XD, or have a fan blowing at it -_- and if that still happens, its your ram =_=

 

K I think I found the drivers.. = ="

What else?
