laptop: ACER ASPIRE E1-470G
Os: Windows 8.1 Single Language
My Laptop turns off when its 30% Battery, 10% was set on critical battery level as default so I was excepting to reached that level before my laptos turns off, but I regularly do connect my ac adapter about 40% just now I forgot to connect it. before it turns off I notice it was 30%.
how can I calibrate my battery? I read somewhere that its good to calibrate it every like 30 cycles.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy pen accuracy varies across the screen. Some place is perfectly adjusted and some other bring the pointer 1/2 cm off (or more)
I was running the OEM Vista OS and tried calibrating, tapped the cross exactly in the middle and saved. But still random accuracy.
I installed Windows 7 and use the 8 point calibration tool (control panel) and noticed that the top right corner could not be hit unless I bring the pen a bit on the inside, same to the bottom left. FYI in Windows 7 the cross calibrating point are almost touching the corners while in Vista, it is more spaced out.
if your TX2x00 has the same behavior in corners. Is your pen 100% accurate after calibration ?
how to make my screen get better colours as it seems pale. i tried the program and it works quite well. i changed the setting in the non expert thing from 1.8 standard to 2.2 television and its got a lot better colours. if you use the expert setting,im sure you can get even better colours but i find it hard. try this and im sure it will help you, post any expert calibrations if you can with screen shots. il try to make one now. to get to it, apple logo > system pref > display > color > calibrate....
View 4 Replies View RelatedMy concern with this is the fact that with the battery removed, there's going to be a big space underneath the laptop where the battery used to be that's just asking for a bunch of dust and dirt to come in. Is that an issue? Or am I mistaken in believing that removing the battery sounds like a bad idea?
Also, is it necessary to remove the battery if I intend on using the AC adapter most of the time, since the only time I'd be away from a wall jack would be when I travel. When I'm at home, I can easily just plug it into the wall rather than use up the battery.
I had my LED(Toshiba) and motherboard (nvidia 8400) replaced on my xpsm1330. Now, when I watch videos if I'm not sitting directly in front of the screen the picture looks washed out.
If I move to the left of the right I can't make out the image. The replacement screen is a toshiba also.....
I recently bought 1810T. It has W7 ultimate 64bit and 3303 bios installed. Unfortunately there is the issue that battery is discharging for about 5-8% per day when laptop is off (shut down).
I've disabled all "wake on" properties in network adapter driver properties but
unfortunately it does not help.
I just bought the HP ENVY 17-j180ca Notebook PC. I'm trying to calibrate my monitor for photograph editing. The software I'm using to calibrate the monitor with asked two questions I don't have the answers to...
1. Is the Gamut normal or wide?
2. Is the monitor backlit with Fluorescent CCFL, white LED or RGB LED?
I have an Acer 4810TZ timeline (SU4100 processor). I had charged the battery up to 100% and then left on an 11 day vacation. When I came back, I found the battery to have only a 16.7% charge left on it. Is this an excessive lost of battery over an 11 day period? My laptop was left shut down (it was not in sleep or hibernate mode). I would think the drain on the battery would be minimal.
Is my battery defective or is this normal? I've had the laptop for about 2 months.
where I can buy a high capacity battery for my laptop 5315 .

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been having trouble with my laptop battery, its an acer 1642 maybe 3 years old, but i actually think the battery is fine.
I had been unable to get the battery to last for any longer than 20 mins, now this didnt really bother me as i usually always use it near a power outlet anyway, however being bored thought i would try something, so i turned off the battery warnings and automatic shutdown and just let it go untill it died, and it actually lasted aver an hour on 0% yes zero% so that kinda tells me the battery is fine.
when i charged it back up i ran into all sorts of problems, hanging on boot, crashing when i opened up power options and dunno if its related but some system proccess hogging the CPU at at least 50% all the time, however this only really happened when i booted it on AC power, under battery it seemed a lot better, long story slighty shorted, updated the bios and it seems to have fixed this problem.
however this is where it gets weird, now i am unable to get it to charge above 7% yet now when i unplug it at 7% it tells me i have about 3-4 hours left (from new it was never over 1.5hrs) just now its sitting at 7% and 3hrs 12mins.
does anyone know what i have done, battery times all seem to be ok, battery holds the system up no problem it just doenst seem to be reading the charge correctly ... is there anything i can do to fix this, except buying a new battery, really dont wanna do that, no cash just now ... any help would be greatly appreciated
I have an Acer R7-571 that will not run from the battery.

Still refuses to use the battery, has an X on the battery, won't run unless plugged in.
I am planning to buy an Acer Aspire One. Will I be able to upgrade the battery to 6-cell after a use of abt 7/8 months?
View 6 Replies View Relatedmy Acer Aspire 6920G battery no longer holds a charge. I have made sure that it was charged 100% even on power saver mode and the battery will go to 100% to 5% within 5 min. I looked at the battery condition on my laptop and it says to replace it.Where do i buy an acer battery ? Is this covered by costco's 2 year warranty?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI got an Aspire One a few months ago and it worked fine. I hardly ever use it.
I brought it with my on vacation and when I went to boot it up, it wouldn't turn on. Figured the battery was dead so I put the power cord in and turned it on.
After an hour or so, I unplugged the power cable and it instantly shut off. Thought it was weird, but whatever.
I just now noticed though that the battery light blinks orange. XP says the battery is 100%, but if you unplug the AC power, it instantly shuts off and it can't be turned on without the AC.
I just got the 3G version of the Netbook with the 3 cell battery. I'm only getting a bit over 2 hour of battery life with 3G off, my wireless connection on, the screen brightness about half way, and the only program open is Firefox. For example, right now I have 90% capacity and it's showing 1:55. Is this the normal battery life. I know the specs say up to 3 hours, but I never believe in those, and I just want to make sure mine is about right.
I was thinking of getting the 6 cell battery, but I don't want to make the netbook any bulkier than it is (I'll be carrying it back and forth in my work commute).
My netbook runs very slow when on battery power. I've tried every power option and while "Home/Office" seems to work the best (even better than "Always On"), it still runs slower than when plugged in. I'd like to get the same performance on battery that I get when plugged in, even though I understand I may have to sacrifice battery life. Is there a way to do this, or at least to improve battery performance?

My 6-cell is starting to barely give me 4 hours after I accidentally pushed it too far a couple times, and I was searching for a replacement and found these new "9-cell" batteries. Do they really provide the jump in battery life that 6-cells provides over 3-cells?
I can't seem to find a replacement battery for my aspire, all I find is 14.4 or 14.8 volt batteries. Does anyone know where I could order one online? (# on battery is AS07B41)
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have been looking everywhere for a replacement battery for my Aspire 5044WLMi.
The original battery is part number BTP-AWD1 and is 11.1V 4000mAh and appears to have also been used in Aspires 3610 and 5020 to name a couple.
I have been unable to find the 11.1V version of this battery anywhere but most suppliers have one that is 14.8V.
This seems like a wide voltage variance to me - does anyone know if it would be OK to use the 14.8V version or can anyone steer me to a supplier for the 11.1V version.
I have a ES1-512 laptop bought that is showing a battery problem. It will run on mains power without problem however if mains power is removed it shuts down immediately. Also in the task bar the battery indicator is showing 74% available (plugged in, not charging).
View 3 Replies View RelatedI bought this laptop a couple months ago and since i got it, the battery has just not charged. it just says "plugged in, not charging" i tried another power cable and it charged for 30 seconds then stopped charging but it still said "plugged in, charging" even though it wasn't charging.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI just quickly unplugged the charger and re-plugged it in right away (at 6% now!)
The battery bar had the rising horizonal bar again..but only for 5 times. now it is back at showing the battery at 6% with no movement.
Recently I have had some issues with the battery in my laptop not wanting to charge. The battery is fine when I have it plugged in but when it is plugged in it won't charge. If I let the battery fully die out I can't get it to charge at all.
I have tried removing the battery and shutting things down and holding down the power button to flush the power but that didn't work. I have tried putting the battery back in when the computer was still on but that only lasted for an hour or two. I have tried two different batteries thinking that was it was an issue with the battery but I still had the same issue.
I have also updated the BIOS but that didn't do anything. I will try and update it again and see if there is an update I have missed but are there any other things I can try?
Last night I was using my E1705 running on battery when the thing just suddenly zapped off. I had recently glanced at the battery meter which was 75% full. I pressed the button on the actual battery which shows 3 of 5 lights on the charge meter.
The battery itself is only 1 month old and has been performing flawlessly. I just thought it was something random so I plugged the machine in and it started up.
I didn't think anything else of it till today when I went to move my laptop, removed the power cord, and the laptop turned off. I checked the physical battery meter which still reads 3 of 5 lights .....
