    Gentlemen
    Any of you have or had problem with ASUS W2 V notebook about slow restart under high room temperature environment.
    I bought my notebook last year October 2005 and all winter and spring time had no problem for the restart the computer but all of sudden during summer time when I use my computer in a room without air-conditioned, I realized that restart time takes about 1 or 2 min (I mean after 1 or 2 min later asus logo appears.)Then loading of windows goes very smoothly.
    However when I move the computer to an air-conditioned room which is about 23~ 24 C degree, restart gives no problem. (I mean as soon as restart process starts then asus logo appears instantly without any delay)
    I took the notebook to asus center and after 2 days stability check they found nothing but this still looks to me strange.
    Under normal process ASUS probe temperature software indicates the system temperature about 58 to 60 and during 3 d game process about 65 to 67
    My notebook configuration
    Pentium 4 centrino 2.2 GHz
    1 GB ddr2 533 ram
    160 segate 5400rpm hard disk
    128 Mb ati x700 graphic card
    Bios has already been upgraded to latest version

    Thanks for your comments and/or experiences
