    OCZ 17in WXGA Laptop Computer Barebone OCZDIY17B1-US, Supports Intel Core 2 Duo/Extreme/Quad CPU, Supports up to 4GB Dual Channel DDR3-1066 RAM, 2 x 2.5in HDD/SSD slots, w/ Geforce 130M GT, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Webcam

    Is there a service manual for this laptop? Does anyone have it? Or is this laptop similar to something else or a direct rebrand? What I wanted to do was try and replace the lcd with a WUXGA but I need the specs to actually be successful.

    I was searching this website for the answer but I can't seem to get a definite one. I keep reading that OCZ Whitebook is the same as all others but I am getting the models mixed up. Any help would be appreciated.

    WUXGA allows a higher resolution. I have posted on the ocz forum as well but seems they are lazy =_= I guess I'll try to email them directly or just call.

    LP171WP4 LG. Hope this helps anyone who wants to know the info. =_= I had to wait to bust my laptop open to find out what it was. From here research the same specs and magic will happen. Now to wonder about the LCD connections.

    mooking if you going to open up change the LCD, at the same time could you take a few high resolution motherboard photos. I want to locate the PLL chip and find the code for overclocking.

    Hmm you might have to wait awhile for me to do that. I will do it gladly though. I am waiting for my cpu and ram to get in. So sometime next week.
