1142756 2010-10-09 00:42:00 Thanks Wainuitech,I did check but didn't find it.My motherboard will be covered as far as time is concerned.Do I have to return it to the point of sale,or can it be taken to a seller of their product? Computer originally bought from Auckland,now living in Palmy? ruup (1827)
1142757 2010-10-09 01:21:00 its meant to go back to the original Reseller, since they will have all the "official" paperwork ( or should) as to when it was purchased.

But -- Theres always a BUT :D you can call Asus Their NZ contact Details (www.asus.co.nz) - and ask if a local Computer repairer can handle the RMA if required, since you have moved house (as long as the repairer will of course) worst they are going to say is no.

I've done similar a couple of times when the place the person brought something from has closed. This was with Gigabyte though.

The original place that sold you the parts will have hopefully got them from a NZ supplier - its a case of the repairer finding out who - could be Synnex, or maybe Morning Star (who have now closed) - But Asus can advise.

1142759 2010-10-09 02:26:00 Looks like thats a common BSOD with installing windows. And with that file. And it usually points to faulty hardware somewhere Speedy Gonzales (78)
1142760 2010-10-09 02:34:00 Hmmmmmmmm.

Still got the same problem and no idea yet on where to get a tech in Palmerston North which is what you asked in the first place?

Can't be anyone there that knows I guess.

1142761 2010-10-09 03:45:00 ruup - Can you please try something or advise -- 1st I assume you have a SATA Optical Drive as well as SATA HDD.

The HDD and Optical Drive - are they in SATA Ports 1 & 2 As Highlighted (www.imagef1.net.nz) and the memory - Single Stick make sure its in A1 Yellow One Orange Arrow (www.imagef1.net.nz).

Does the install still fail with that setup ?
