actually, my msi wind had encountered a factory defect and i wasnt been able to fix it for 3 months..since its service center is in manila and i was in visayas… luckily when i went to qc, Net essentials brought life to my dead keyboard msi wind laptop and i am happy that it was been fixed with warranty…. and now im using it again and do stuffs for my work.. the unit is really good and very handy …. do not worry about the customer service support because they will attend to u nicely……

you have to re-install that graphics accelerator because that is the driver for your video card..check the accompanying cd that you have when you bought your laptop, if it does’nt have accompanying cd just download it msi website its there

hi. Just want to ask what will I do. Kasi na uninstall ko yung intel graphic media accelerator(accidentally). Tapos I turned off my laptop.And then nung binuksan ko na siya, nag iba yung screen resolution niya. tinry ko siya baguhin sa sa display properties, pero ang andun lang na screen resolution is 800×600. Eh dapat mga 1024xsomething yung resolution niya. tapos everytime in-ON ko siya may lumalabas na Found New Hardware VIDEO CONTROLLER(VGA Compatible).Eh wala naman akong inistall na something like that. In case you know please reply. Thanks:)

If I’ve got 5thumbs I would’ve raised them all for MSI Wind U100 version (White With Love). I can play mmorpg games, use photoshop, edit videos using vegas, design a website, use adobe-mac softwares, everything that I want to do, in such a slick mobile netbook. ^___^ MSI Wind Recommended for everybody who’s always on the go!!

[...] Since Asus expanded the Eee PC line to dozens of unit models, I didn’t see much worth on the new upgrades. The updates are either too trivial or too expensive. However, the $399 Asus Eee PC 1000HE is looking to be a worthy replacement to my MSI Wind U100. [...]

i too am a happy user of the msi wind. would also like to know when will the six-cell battery be available here. the wind’s four cell leaves much to be desired but other than that everything about the wind is just great.

Well, the wind performed great!=) well of course not too much as compared to dual core CPUs in terms of hardcore gaming, but it does accomplish tasks with flying colors. And yes, you’re right I’m definitely proud with my wind.:D

correction: Sad to say I was NOT informed that the no OS version doesn’t have a bluetooth device since the salesperson demo the windows version

i bought a msi wind without OS for 19999k at Octagon, Festival Mall, Alabang and installed ubuntu. Sad to say I was informed that the no OS version doesn’t have a bluetooth device since the salesperson demo the windows version.

Before I bought one, I made a thorough research on it. Result are highly positive. I got it under 24K php. The specs: 2gig RAM 160g HD, XP home OS. Personally its performance is excellent, fast and responsive; the downside short battery life and its WIFI quite weak, a bit frustrating. Novice user may find it slightly difficult to fix this, but the heck, purchase instead an usb WIFI, that will solve it.

The interesting part about this unit I see in the web, alot of tech-ies mod their MSI Wind to some extent like installing triple OS, gamer’s console (graphics intensive)and, .my FAV; Mod apple netbook; complete with Leopard OS and apple logo with led lights. Maybe someday, I’ll make mine mod TOUGH NETBOOK (PANASONIC inspired)

Make it 1,500K pesos difference since I was provided with the 2GB memory Btw, it’s XPH too. So it’s more the 6-cell and the Wifi N ang major difference. I was really partial to the laptop design of MSI from the very beginning. Asus release of EEE 1000H just made me reconsider a bit >.< Anyway, the free mem upgrade and the installment payment made me decide to finally buy it.

Hhmmm… from what I read on some MSI Wind related updates, I get this impression that the units with the 6-cell unit has the different touchpad. I am assuming that the demand probably caused the changes since they had lots of orders to fill. It’s very odd that there is a lack of supply outside PH but we seem to have an abundant local supply.

Or maybe UMPCs are not as in demand in the local scene.
