View 4 RepliesI have an Acer Extensa 5420 or 5420-5687 and i have a question about bluetooth function.
When I pull the Bluetooth "button" to the right, a message appears in the screen saying "No Bluetooth Device". What does that means? That the laptop dont have the thing that picks up the bluetooth signal from the other devices or that it have the thing that picks up the signal but didnt found any signal?
I'm thinking about upgrading my laptop - the plan is to add 2GB of RAM (for 4GB total) and swapping in a larger HD (the 160GB is getting full, and I haven't swapped my music libary over yet...)
My questions are:
-anyone know where I can find a free service manual for either the 5420 series laptops or something similar? I've found a few online, but all want payment , and I'd like to have an idea what's involved before taking a screwdriver to the laptop
- if I swap in a larger HD, can I use the Acer restore disk I created as soon as I powered the laptop up, or should I create another and restore from that? Or, most likely, is it a case that if I swap in a new HD I've got to re-install from scratch (with no Vista disk from Acer)?
just got an Acer Extensa 5420-5687 laptop (used no warranty), added a new hdd and plugged in and I get nothing, the battery light does not light up, I swapped power supplies with my 5102wlmi and I still get nothing, no lights no nothing I have a feeling I know where this is going which might be the trash bin, but I thought I might ask if there is something I should be looking for. I have tried holding the power button without a battery and all that neat stuff. The battery charge light does not come on at all, its been plugged in for about an hour now and I get nothing.......

However the XP drivers for the WiFi card doesn't work
I know it's a Broadcom 802.11g Does someone knows where to find them? In the "Device Manager" I have "Network Controller" with both a question and exclamation mark.
Also, I need to update the following drivers (XP):
IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers
- Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE controller
IEEE 1394 Bus host controllers
- OHCI Compliant 1394 Host Controller
ATI SMBus
(it's weird because I've installed the latest drivers directly from AMD/ATI's web site)
USB Host Controllers

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am thinking of buying one if these soon from BestBuy. I have an Aspire 5003 and no problems with it. I will be getting this for 250 as I have a broken PDA with replacement plan and they no longer sell this model. I will probably buy it tomorrow or next weekend.

View 15 Replies View RelatedI need to use an old GW Basic program on my Acer Extensa 5420 laptop. While I can run GW BAsic itself, problem arises when I try to invoke full screen mode within the program. I get an error message (on the Vista desktop, NOT from the Basic program) that says that this system does not support ful screen mode, and I have to cancel or ignore. If I remove the basic command to go to full screen, the program runs OK but in a small window that renders it basically useless. This same program runs fine on my older desktop with Windows XP. Is this a hardware limitation? Many (non-GW Basic) applications go to full screen no problem, like IE or Firefox, MS Office and so many more.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI installed Windows XP 64 bit on my extensa 5420 and I've been finding it really hard to just access wireless LAN. I downloaded the drivers off of the website link in the other thread about extensa 5420. After installing those drivers, nothing happened because it couldn't detect my wireless adapter. The only network adapter detected is the 1394 net adapter. Under other devices (question signs next to them) are : Audio Device, Ethernet Controller, Mass Storage Controller, Modem Device on High Definition Audio Bus, Network Controller, SM Bus Controller.
How do I get LAN and wireless LAN to work? I love having windows xp 64 bit.
I need to upgrade the graphics card on my Acer Extensa 5420 to something that is a lot more powerful then what the standard stock is. It is not even letting me play a game that was released in 2003 because the card is so bad. I am running on Vista and have 2GB or RAM, but am going to upgrade to 3 or 4 in the near future.
Also; my computer does not shut down, it goes in to stand by and dies on me. How can I shut it down? I have done all of the proper configuration so that it shuts down when it is told to... screenie provided as attachment
I have an Acer Extensa 5420 and it came with Windows Vista (no recovery discs just 2 partitions with one recovery) which I wiped and installed Ubuntu onto. I went to install XP and the wireless card doesn't work.
I downloaded the driver from Acer's own site and it says that the card is ejected/not installed. I have no idea what to do and all acer is telling me to do is to redownload the same drivers and try again.
I just got an acer extensa 5420 yesterday.
Graphics are supposedly at radeon HD 2400 XT, with 256megs of dedicated vram and the option to use regular ram as hypermemory.
My problem is, whats the deal with the clock speeds?
This screen shot should explain everything....Clock speeds are half of what they should be.

I have upgraded the OS to Win 7 Home Premium, 32 bit, and had the hard drive upgraded to a 320 GB SATA drive. The system will boot flawlessly with the SATA drive installed, it will not boot with the 500Gb Samsung 840 EVO SSD drive installed.
When the power button is pressed the power light lights up, the hard drive activity light lights up, the CPU cooling fan comes on, the DVD drive light comes on and you hear a couple of clicks then it turns off.
Is there a special setting in BIOS that needs to be made or is this notebook simply unable to use an internal SSD drive?
I bought an Acer Extensa 5420-5038 today, it cames with Vista Home 32 bits english version. As I am a brazilian, i formated it and instaled Vista Ultimate 64 bits Portugues version. The problem is, after the instalation, the wireless dont work anymore.
The light that usually flickes over it doesl not turn on, and it appears as an unknown network device on my hardware manager.
I've tried Atheros and Broadcom drivers from acer site but they didnt work and it told me the driver won't be installed because the appropriate card isn't installed....
In other words, it's telling me I dn't have an Atheros/Broadcom wireless card, but with the original instalatio of Vista it WAS working perfectly.
In an Extensa 5420 the hard drive was formatted as EISA instead of NTFS. Is there a way to change it to NTFS without destroying what is on the drive? It is running okay, is there a disadvantage leaving it as EISA?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI recently reformatted and installed xp on my Aspire 5680-6123, and finding drivers is tough. Ive got most of the things working, except for the Ethernet adapter. The drivers ive tried are the broadcom ones from the acer site, but nothing seems to work. The default drivers xp wants to install do not work either.
Maybe im just doing something wrong, installing the drivers incorrectly.
I have been looking for the bluetooth drivers for my Acer Extensa 4420-5910 for a week with no luck. I believe they are Broadcom drivers but I am not sure. None of the drivers on Acer's website work. Broadcom's download page is also down. Driverguide does not appear to have them either. Acer doesn't have a "Parts List" for this laptop so they cannot tell me exactly what bluetooth drivers I will need, and unfortunately I am not about to crack a new laptop open to find out. At the minimum if someone could just tell me what the name of the correct driver is I would be satisfied. This is for 32-bit Vista.

I got the 2 possible drivers from the IBM website and not one of them says it's correct.
What am I doing wrong?
The Network Card was working OK before formatting, as I was on the internet with it.

I have a hp mini 210-2145. It had windows 7 home edition 32bit on it but I formatted it and put windows 7 professional 64 bit on. I cant get the wifi to work. I finally got the regular plug in to work but still no wifi. I have went to the driver site and installed both chip sets. and downloaded a bunch of the internet drivers listed on the network drivers list. After installing a bunch of them i noticed the system scan. It detected that i had a 802.11b/g/n WLAN. Thats the irst one on the site so i redownloaded and instaled it and it still isnt working. In the device manager it shows the yellow exclamation and just says ethernet controller.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI just recently had to do a clean install of windows 7 64 bit on a pavilion 15t-n200 notebook pc and discovered to my distress that the drivers page for this model doesn't have all the drivers such as display, ethernet, audio, and a few others that aren't installed. Support assistant doesn't recognize the missing drivers but they are shown as missing in device manager and don't come up with any Microsoft updates either.

I have tried looking for the synaptics driver but it was only available for windowd 8.1 on HP website and could not find a windows 7 driver.
View 2 Replies View RelatedPlus the the Sound Manager is saying no Audio Output Device is installed AND all of a sudden ATI is saying I have to install new drivers but with no keyboard I cannot find the "display manager".
The only possible thing I can think of is that I added SW for a Sprint aircard right before all this happened bu that couldn't possibly be the cause of the problems could it?
I want to stop using my wireless connection on my laptop and plug an ethernet lead in.
But when I plug this lead in my laptop just stays connected to to my wireless network. I tried disabling the Wireless on my computer then putting the lead in but still it wont attempt to connect to the internet with the ethernet lead in. What driver do I need to download so it will recognize the lead is in the laptop and attempt to connect to the internet?
I have an ACER 5610/Z
My laptop doesn't detect my ethernet card, so when I plug a cable in, only the yellow light at the top left of the port flashes, whereas the green light at the top right of the port does not light up. I get no signal at all. In Network Connections it shows that I only have a Wireless Connection and not LAN. Device Manager shows 3 Unknown Devices, however when I downloaded my Atheros driver from Acer's website the driver said that my hardware could not be found.
