How can i tell if mu laptop was refurbished

Hello,
How can i tell if mu laptop was refurbished? I have been having weird problems with a "brand new" unit that replaced my old one due to multiple issues. ASUS claims that it is new but I am geting notices that I need to update an NVIDIA driver that my unit does not have.

usually refurbuished unts have a sticker saying so on them somehwere so warranty centers will know not to give you the full warranty a new unit has.
I agree with you though, most often when yours is replaced by the factory you get a 'repaired' unit and not a new one.
