    For those experiencing issues or problems with W90vp, please report it on here. If there's a screenshot, a photo, a video, that would be even better. This thread can help simplify the error logs (as opposed to someone calling ASUS now and then), and can really help ASUS technicians in ramifying the issue.

    However, I would like to keep this thread as simple as possible. Therefore if you do not have a issue to report, please do not post in this thread. You can further discuss the problem in the owner's lounge.

    Thanks in advance.

    Good idea! I had a lock up, unfortunately no image or way to show you since it has passed, but it required the removal of the battery to get the unit to turn on again. It has not happened since.

    Here is the state of my w90:

    Fresh f9 install, all stock Asus drivers, no overclocking.

    Frequent lockups on startup requiring the battery to be removed.
    If I can get past startup, vista runs fine outside of games, no problems there yet.
    However, games will not run. They will flicker the screen with dark horizontal bars before crashing to a blue screen and a restart. The blue screen says something to the effect of the graphics driver being stuck in an infinite loop.

    I'd be happy to share any other details that may be pertinent to finding a solution.

    Thank you guys. Keep contributing, and we can notify ASUS's tech representative to just read this thread. It will be much more helpful for them to diagnose the problems.
