    Hey I just got my Sager NP8150 / Clevo P150HM

    And I realised that there was a 2nd Mini Card Slot.

    Is it working?

    Is there anything I can use it for??

    Thanks.

    Also How do I know whether I have a Clevo Or Sager? ( need to know which bios updates to run ) I got my unit from Australia , Sorry if it is a stupid question doesnt say whether its clevo or sager on the site I purchased from.

    EDIT : UGHHH how do I edit the thread name? Seems too vague..

    Also How is everyone using the Full HD screen on a 15inch ? I i got the Matte 95% Color Gamut and EVERYTHING IS SOO SMALL, My eyes hurt .. I increased the DPI under the windows settings but it has been giving me problems with some games where I have to manually disable DPI scalling. Most recent example I can think off is Unigine Heaven Benchmark where the mouse cursor is Invisible if I dont disable DPI scalling.. And Windows Gadgets/Widgets Or Rainmeter Skins are way too small! Are there any workarounds? I know for Rainmeter there are ways to increase Skin sizes but every skin has a different way of increasing the Skin size.

    hi and welcome to nbr.
    clevo are the manufacturer Clevo and sager are a reseller in america Sager

    the second mini card slot might be a 3G slot for like a sim card from a mobile phone. where is the slot as ive not seen your model before. my m860tu has a slot on the bottom for a 3G card but is a waste of time.

    If you think 1080p is too small just change the resolution. If you just type "resolution" in the search bar of win 7 windows and click the first thing you'll be able to. That should make everything bigger.

    It can, depending on what you set it to. It will be especially pronounced if you don't match the aspect ratio as everything will need to be stretched out. As a rule, the farther from the default you go, the worse it will look.
