Do install/recovery media & carrying case come with MSI Wind? Hi all,Some other sites have shown photos of the MSI Wind and the accessories that come with it, including 2 recovery/media disks, and a carrying case. Yet, some on other forums have said that those items are included, depending on the retailer. For those of you who have ordered an MSI Wind from Amazon (I'd like to order the U100-432), can you tell me if those items were automatically included? Thank you.

The MSI hard drive has a pre-installed program for creating a recovery disk. It lets you make one copy of the disk image. If you don't have a USB dvd drive handy, it will create the image to your hard drive so that you can write it to a dvd later. I made mine, and it worked well.

Hi D. Petitpas,I was wondering if anyone would ever reply to my post. I didn't know that these drives were shipped pre-formated and I don't think that it is listed in it's description here on Amazon. Thank you so very much for setting me straight!

No, unfortunately it doesn't. You will have to backup the system and burn your own recovery discs. :(. It may depend upon whom the system is purchased from as to whether or not you will receive discs. Mine did not come with anything aside from the tower.

Thank you. I had the same question. When I bought it, I found it came with an enclosure. I don't understand why both WD and Seagate show multiple pictures of the drive opened up. It confuses the buyer, as what you receive is a sealed drive, not an open case. If the case is left open the disk can be damaged very easily. I believe they are actually sealed in a clean room. But many people do not know that, and it does not excuse the poor presentation of this product.

Yes the item arrived as described on time , with a recovery disk. It's going on 2 months since I've had it, and I have no complaints. Runs great, and they even thru in a free wifi adapter no charge! I would order from these guys agin.

There are only two fans that come with this case. But the case is well put together and is well worth the money. I already brought the other part that is sold separately and i really like the way it all stacks together. I am thinking about buying another full case to stack on top to have a total of 2 parts with windows and i would then have 3 smaller parts to the case, (one small at the bottom and one at the top, and one small in between the big cases. I would not install two motherboards in this case even withe the setup i mentioned above. ...in the 5 part setup I would put hard drives in the small compartment at the bottom and radiators in the other two. My motherboard is in the bottom window and i would put 5 big reservoirs in the top window which would house the water being sent to my mobo , cpu, two gtx 980 GPUs , my ram and my hard drives. so yeah, only two fans included but its a good Case that i would recommend. Best case owned so far.

Everything is in the case. Power Supply, Screws, Legs. That's it! Great Case! It would be nice if you use a motherboard with an onboard USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 socket for the card reader and the USB 3.0 outside port. I like the white one best!

This happens a lot on Amazon. The RAM is definitely 4 GB. I bought this computer from ANTOnline, and it definitely came with 4 GB of RAM. Another question I had (so I'll answer it here even though you didn't ask) is whether it came with any recovery media. Windows 7 Home Premium is installed (not Win 7 Pro), and it did not come with any DVD media; but you can create recovery disks from the computer itself. This machine does not come with any form of Windows 8 either installed or on disk.

Sorry, no. It's rare nowadays for any supplier to provide installation media. They almost always do, however, create a small protected partition on the hard-drive which the operating system can use to restore the computer to it's "as-delivered" condition in the event of a "hard fault" failure to start. The best thing you can do yourself is create an image of your system on an external storage drive as it is when you are satisfied with it. That way you can restore it to the original drive, or to a newer/faster/bigger or solid state drive when you want better performance or more storage space.

I know. I'm waiting on two pre-orders: one with Amazon and another with Buy.com. Neither seem to know when the 6-cells will be available. I've even called MSI Internat'l, directly. I've left several messages and haven't heard a thing. I may end up purchasing the new ASUS version of MSI Wind. Try calling your MSI branch.

Mine has the Reinstall DVD for Windows 7 64 bit, and another DVD for drivers. What I really wanted to ask was for the Restore DVD -- a DVD that will restore the laptop to its original, out of the box state. However, none of the included DVDs provide that, not even the reinstall DVD and driver DVD. I emailed dell support and they agreed to provide me with a replacement drive to assist with my restore process.

Hello, I have this model. It includes the product,the 2 required cables with molex connectors to power the device, the standard drivers included with it, msi afterburner that allows you to give a slight boost of performance with virtually no side effects, a DVI male to vga female converter, so if you have an old monitor with vga and no hdmi nor DVI you can still use that monitor, and a bridging cable for crossfiring. Mine game with a mini displayport to hdmi, in case you want 2 monitors to use hdmi. Finally I can't quite remember whether mine came with hdmi and vga cables, but I want to say it came with an hdmi. At the time when I bought mine, I got $120 worth of games, and the 3DMark11 benchmark software for free with it, but it was a promotion, and the product cost $240 back then. It's been a year I think, so I hope this helps!

I spoke with customer service right now and they double checked. Unfortunately there is absolutely no ETA on the item. Is it even possible to get the ASUS U50Vg-B1 model which IS in stock and put a 500GB HDD, the 2.53GHz Intel P8700 Core 2 Duo Processor and the Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit) Operating System? I mean.. Thats the only difference between them.. I would assume its possible and would be great if they would since we have been waiting so long for this product. Its about to be a month since its been released.. Help us! lol :(

most of us have a ton of sata cables with our motherboard. probably, a prebuilt system won't come with them, but most prebuilds have DVD drives installed. my Asus DVD drive -- this one -- came in a sealed box, with no cable. it's not an OEM packaging.

No, it's a separate policy, which, like I did, you can get through Amazon, but it comes from them [Square Trade]. I bought one on my external 3 1/2 disk drive (as I have old ones I want to use with my PC). If you have questions, you can contact them, as I did, either by email, or phone, they were pretty helpful on mine. Thanks for asking Jen, and have a nice day/evening, depending on when you sent this, and receive this reply.
