ok, hi, i have this notebook for over a year (so out of warranty) one key gets stuck and i have to hit an another key to get it out of it!!(got a wireless keybrd/mouse but promblem in on notebok keypad, Everytime i turn it on, the Bios screen comes up and I have to press F2 to continue and it goes into past to a date like 1997 or something like that at 0000hrs. I think recently if it is on charging, turning on the charger turns on the notebook. I use ti to connect to TV(is that a problem) thanks
@terryyouth You've got three unrelated issues there, the first problem you need to clean your keyboard, if the key (spring inside) is broken then you'll have to buy a replacement. The bios issue your having sounds like corrupt version, update latest version, if you update and it still happens contact asus. The charger thing is a major problem, if turning ur charger on turns ur laptop on then there's either power surge in charger or faulty motherboard (bios problem could be caused by this..)
@ozolayer , thanks for your help, i have changed the CMOS battery and it has sorted out the turning on automatically on charging & the date problem. the only problem remaining is the stuck key thing. it is not like the key is stuck virtually, but on screen it comes as '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' so i press any other key and this loop is broken, not sure if it is keyboard or any circuit as key is not stuck, and this happens mostly on startup.
For everyone having a problem getting the netbook to recognize the new RAM size turn off BOOT BOOSTER in the BIOS before you change any hardware components.
@Jimberlin I think it just displayed as 1GB in some places and in others it actually had updated and is now displaying 2GB. I never fixed it in the SystemInfo but other places updated.
@Jimberlin It's because of the 'Boot booster'. You just hit F2 repeatedly after turning on to enter BIOS, and then exit without changing anything. Your 2GB should then be recognized as 2gb in windows.
I hear Ubuntu is a good alternative for users who are more accustomed to Windows. Dunno if it's ready to use with the latest generation of netbooks though.
Actually, as I found out after much research and especially thanks to a specialist friend, you can't. It's something they call dynamic memory allotment: the system will use as much of the RAM as video memory as required by specific circumstances/usage needs.
What can, and should, be done is install a codec pack (such as XP Codec Pack). This will finally make your videos play smoothly.
4GB single stick for a netbook is not aorund yet? lol well dunno.. but 4G in a netbok is overkill but yes... i see yourpoint would love 4GB in my netbook lol
The maximum of 2 GB of DDR2 at 800 MHz is enough for the machine to run decently on Win XP and even 7 (the "Starter" version). Of course, anyone would like their netbook to do as much as any good notebook out there, so for that 4 GB would be very nice indeed (in that line, a dual-core processor would also be swell!).
I did this upgrade also and the computer works but it still says it has 1gig of ram when in reality it has two. Does this make a difference in performance?
Very helpful!! it took me 3 minutes to upgrade the RAM.
Caution - be sure to seat the new RAM module tightly. The first time I put the memory in, it must not have had a good connection and the machine would not boot.

i hear using Crucial's 2gb RAM causes the 1005's and 1001's to have shutdown problems. Is this true?
mburke000 1 year ago
running windows defeats the point of the netbook. it boots slowly and runs like hell. use a linux distro thats lightweight.

that won't fuck wif warrenty eh ?
rs1985 2 years ago
of course not,
1. they put a screw sealed hatch on with warrenty seal on
2. the official asus manuals state the spec as "1GB RAM (Upgradeable to 2GB)"
swapping HDD's in this model voids warrenty iirc, unlike the 1000HA which gave you access to the HDD and RAM

you need to go to your bios screen and reconfigure in order for your computer to recognize the new ram.
