General Manufacturer Support Thread

[Cold Storm]

After a mix up with a thread the other night. I felt it was a wise Idea to make a Support thread. This way no one can say that service sucks due to not taking the time to figure it all out.

(*) Support wasn’t found unless product/region was clicked

If any supplier isn’t on the list, please fill free to PM me and I’ll add. I DO NOT have time to add it via post.

DO NOT BASH Manufactures on this thread. It’s to get support and nothing else. If you want to put down a Manufacture it will be reported.

** Some pages might be USA bound.. That wasn't due to me being lazy.. It's due to Region being forced to the desired region.

Excellent work Cold Storm

 

[Cold Storm]

Thanks. I just felt we needed something that we can all go to.. Not to start a flame thread anymore.. I'll add more "ordering" sites in the coming days..

 

[Random Murderer]

Thanks, this is a great reference.

 

[Cold Storm]

Bump for a Saturday showing.

Great thread, but it could turn into the yellow pages trying to add a million support numbers.(I just dont want ya to get bogged down with this when theres stuff that needs carbon fibering!)

 

[AsRock]

Phone numbers be cool to see too..

Phone numbers be cool to see too..

I wanted to make sure that it's straight to their support page. That way the end user would have to do the finishing touch to what they are needing.. For Instant, Asus goes straight to their Global Support page with numbers and email accounts.. Once you fill out the 5 steps to get what you need..

I think it's a good thread, CS. I don't think it will be too much trouble as people will post if a link goes dead or something. Phone numbers are more likely to change without notice, so I would not put them here.

 

[Cold Storm]

Yeah, if anyone wants me to add a link for a site thats not on the list, or a supplier that is common used, exp: Newegg.. Just PM me and I can grab it..

Next day off, I'll add suppliers.. Might even just fix it up table wise with suppliers of different Continents.. I just gotta grab help from others that are in that area..

 

[Kreij]

Don't forget to add Schiit to the list of mfgrs.

 

[Cold Storm]

Got your PM AsRock, I'll go threw it all on Tuesday/Wednesday and add those sites.

Lists been added.

Phone numbers are vastly more useful than site links, as the majority of these companies don't seem to employ anyone to check their emails. It's practically impossible to rma something with samsung. They don't list their new models on their website, but you have to pick your model in order to start the support process. Hell some companies are equally unresponsive on the phone. This thread is nice in theory but it's limited by the competence level of the companies.

 

[Cold Storm]

I've updated with what Asrock post. Found the Support for most of them, just remember that the * next to the name means it only worked if you set global settings.

As for the number.. Yeah, it could be helpful.. But, if you can't find the number by looking at the link, or even google.. You really shouldn't of bought anything.. IMPO. Sorry, but if you can't even get it right from someone taking their own time to give you the website to find it.. So, no phone numbers will be added.

 

[scaminatrix]

Subbed and bookmarked! Good-bye google!

 

[Cold Storm]

I added Ultra to the list.. I have no clue how I forgot that.. lol..

Next set of days off, tuesday/Wedneday I'll add support pages for buying sites..

Amazon
Newegg
Ebay
Sidewinder
PPC
Frozen
along with other sites that I have in my inbox of constant goings.



Thank You everyone that have PM'ed me on websites. I'll add them all Tuesday

I know most of you probably got this e-mail aswell, but just posting here to let the rest of you know.

Spoiler

Dear user,

MSI has created a new website for their product pages.
As such the forum links in old messages are no longer valid.

You need to find the link yourself, else ask help from the forum members.
There was no other way for MSI to do a complete overhaul on their websites to make them easier to link to.

The websites in question are:

Global website http://www.msi.com
EU website: http://eu.msi.com
The USA website: http://us.msi.com (will probably follow shortly, as there are some dead links)

Just ask if you need help to find the new link.

The forum team.

hardware issues can be resolved

"I bought this laptop about 5 months back. So far pretty happy with it.
The pros are the speed, screen size, relatively lighter weight and
keyboard size. The only con to me was that the adapter that is shipped is
a 65w Dell AC Adapter, as compared to a 90W one. Reason I need a higher
output one, is that I use a port replicator for this, and it is a pain to
keep switching adapters. On a side note...I went to the Dell site, and
found the 90w charger price to be exorbitant. So did a google search for
guys selling new original OEM Dell ones, and found sites like
sparecharger.com and originalacadapter.com selling them for about half the
price! Forgot exactly which of these site I bought mine, but I am
definitely a happy camper.

Overall, I am really happy with this Dell studiolaptop. I think I made the
right choice"
