My Samsung NP550P5C-S05IN can play all type of games without over heating and throttling issues. This is by far the best multimedia laptop in sub 65k category. I wish it comes with backlit key board. Mine is a month old and I hardly put it off(May be 6 or 7 times max)

here a way to set up access point.

open up command prompt

type "netsh wlan set hosted network mode=allow ssid=your access point name key=password keyUsage=persistent"


this will give u confirmation the the hosted network has been set.

now type "netsh wlan start hosted network"

It says hosted network started.

when u r done with it type "netsh wlan stop hosted network"

Hello guyz! I'm having a S04. Can anybody tell me how to make recovery disks using the factory image in 4-5 DVDs ?? The copied factory image consists of the following files :-

☻init.w01 3.91 GB
☻init.w02 3.94 GB
☻init.w03 2.20 GB
☻init.wcl 3.93 GB
☻init.woo 1 KB
☻WinClonlnit.srs 1 KB
☻Preview - a folder with some images of app icons

Now while copying the factory image by the Samsung Recovery App there was no option for creating a bootable recovery disk. But that option is clearly visible in the Help manual screenshots .So lease tell me guyz what to do???

That's why one should use drivers from manufacturers website.

Download the drivers from Samsung's site and install them. Everything should work fine then.
