Asus u50 laptop manual

It also seems that all Newegg did was find out all the problems it has call it re-certified and sold it again. The network card will randomly shut off, and I have to flip off the switch after pressing the function key to turn off the WiFi then I have to go into control panel and manually restart the card.

It also doesn't hibernate when I shut the lid, i have to manually tell it to hibernate. Now for some reason my browser won't work right I'm not even sure what's wrong with it, and on top of all of that I can't get a refund.

Overall Review: This time it's not the computer that doesn't meet the expectations it's Newegg's service for the computer. I am very disappointed that I can't get a refund for it because frankly I don't trust this computer anymore. Other than that it's a very good laptop if you're not looking to be doing much gaming on it. Pros: All in all this seems to be a really great deal for the price. I'm really pleased with the price of this laptop and for all intents and purposes it looks brand new and not re-certified.

Cons: I agree with what I've seen in a few of the other reviews. The packaging was not the greatest. There was a box with some of those air filled packing bubbles and a smaller box inside but the laptop was just rattling around in the smaller box. Luckily nothing appeared to be broken. I had never run into an OS overlay before. I was starting to think Windows 7 was left out of my package.

Once I exited out of the program windows started up and everything was perfect. It does come preloaded with a lot of stuff you don't need. Some of it does look pretty neat but, I used CCleaner to clear it off. Pros: This is one of the best computers i have ever purchased for this price. I have previously owned an Asus laptop and im pretty amazed by their performance. However for a recertified laptop this is a great deal. This laptop can handle anything from software to games.

Battery last's for about almost 3 hours on full high power energy consumption. Watched 2 full movies on battery power. Cons: sometimes it may get a little too hot on the side due to the vent heat exhaust. Overall Review: Others as seen above may have not gave this unit good rating due to absurd little issues. After all it is a factory reconditioned unit. But definitely a great buy.
