From a gamers point of view, I have become disappointed in my ASUS G73, and the inability to update video drivers w/o the risk of system lock ups. Therefore I am voting for Clevo/Sager!

Lowriderflow, you sound like an owner. It is hard to find anything comparable for $500 more. Here is the latest from Powernotebooks.com The A2 version is End of Life. There will be no more shipments coming in. The: A1...

Sorry, Asus G73JH-A2 17.3" FHD/ATI HD5870 GDDR5/i7-720QM/8GB DDR3/1TB 7200rpm/DVDRW/ In Stock This is another really good etailer: http://1toppc.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=AS17 I did check the link when I posted but I can't find this model on powernotebooks.com any longer.

I would look at this system if you don't need full HD http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100006740%2050001315%204084&IsNodeId=1&name=%241250%20-%20%241500 If you want to go full HD and pay a bit over 1500 I highly recommend...

Have, you tried booting into safe mode? Hit PF8 after your BIOS loads and see if you can login with the administrator account. If you can login this way create a new userid, and see if you can login with the new userid. If this works the original userid/profile is corrupt.

If your G72 is anything like my G73 for turbo to work in Windows 7 if has to be enabled in the BIOS. Hit F2 shortly after turning on your system and go to advanced tben naviagate to Asus easy over-clock and make sure it is set to Turbo. Sorry I am not familiar with your other issues.

I agree with Avast! free version for a powerful machine, and MSE for a system with lower end specs. I also have Malwarebytes free version that does not run real time but can be used for quick scans. Also you will have to manually update it. I have successfully used MS backup for imaging in win 7.

I read the initial post and it sounded like a description of the Asus G73jh-S1. http://www.powernotebooks.com/configure.php?special=786 I purchased from this vendor and am very happy with them B4 and after the sale. I would recommend asking vendor to flash BIOS to 209, and test the system prior...

Jwycko, go to BB's site and search on the ID number 9736955 and I believe you will see what Maziar touted: (Please correct me if I am wrong) and yes this is a great deal for that price point! Model: G60JX-RBBX05 | SKU: 9736955 Intel® Core™ i5-430M processor; 4GB DDR3 memory; 6-cell lithium-ion...

I know this is off topic but I did a search on BB site for 9736955 and found this Asus - Laptop with Intel® Core™ i5 Processor - Blue/Black Model: G60JX-RBBX05 | SKU: 9736955 Intel® Core™ i5-430M processor; 4GB DDR3 memory; 6-cell lithium-ion battery; DL DVD±RW/CD-RW drive; 16" widescreen; 500GB...

B4 anyone takes the plunge for any ASUS G73 model (and there are a plethora of them) I would look at this link: http://vip.asus.com/forum/view.aspx?id=20100504183219546&board_id=3&model=G73JH&page=1&SLanguage=en-us If you want the potential to have to reload BIOS, update drivers, etc. go for it...

I got sucked into the G73JH-.. Hype and bought one myself. If you are willing to take a huge risk and enjoy trouble shooting this machihe is the one for you . Down side is 1.5 hour battery life (surfing and Office apps open). Also it weights about 8 lbs sans AC adapter brick. Check out this...

Bilabos, If you mean the Mesh Edge DX Pro that system looks great! The specs look really solid, a nice gaming rig. From what I have read 4 GIG ram is plenty for gaming and maximiing Win 7 64 bit performance. The cooling on the $1600 US ASUS is supposed to be excellent, I would like to see more...
