Acer :: No 14.1" Laptops Anymore

Oct 19, 2008

I'd like to know if Acer stopped producing 14.1 Aspire laptops? I tried to find somewhere to buy one, but everywhere they just do have 15.4" or old 14" models!

Even in the Acer.com product list they don't have 14.1 inches Aspire :'(

I hope they didn't discontinued the 14.1", I mean, they are much more portable and cuter than the 15.4"s...

If they did stop the production, do you know an equivalent 14.1 or 13.1" laptop (any other brand, or..) ?

Acer :: New 8930 No Wifi (anymore)

Oct 21, 2008

I came home and turned it on, checked my emails... I went to the fridge took something to eat, came back and my internet was gone. No connection or whatsoever. I tried turing the wireless on and off but it doesn't help, I push the side button and it doesn't matter when I press it if it says wireless allowed or wireless off. I just detects nothing. I thought maybe it was the router so I reinstalled it but even that didn't work. My sisters laptop detects our network so no problem there...

Acer :: Aspire 7520 - Cannot Play Anymore New Games Or Even Watch Any Movies On My Laptop

Jun 25, 2009

I have a big problem with my acer 7520. The problem is that i cannot play anymore new games or even watch any movies on my laptop. I got the laptop about a year and a half ago and everything worked great. I could watch movies even when other applications were open. I could play pretty demanding games on it that ran very well. And now about 3 months ago all that luxury stopped and i cant do any of those things anymore. Even an old game like rome total war runs at 9 fps or lower on the main map, i didnt even bother going into battle. Movies stutter and skip frames, and sometimes even get stuck on the same frame with the sound still going as if everything is fine.

My specs are:

AMD Turion(tm) 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-56 (2 CPUs), ~1.8GHz
2GB DDR2
NVIDIA GeForce 7000M / nForce 610M

Acer :: Overclocking Laptops. Nobody Seems To Be Doing It

Mar 24, 2010

I have an 5920G laptop I want to upgrade some components on it in the future. I was thinking in the meantime, I want to try get as much as I can from the current processor, a T5550 (living tissue over metal endoskeleton)

I'm actually surprised information on how to do this is so scarce. Surely there is a way to overclock this model?

The current cpu temps dont really go past 60c, so I think I'm comfortable even if it raises another 20c or so. But I cant find a single method to alter the clockspeed.

So has anyone done it? Or knows how to go about doing it?

Overclocking the 8600 was a no-brainer, just requiring non mobile drivers, and I've been running it permanently overclocked to I since the day I got the laptop about 2 years ago with no issues.

Its about a 25-30% increase in performance across the board! To be honest I dont see why anyone should be without it. I couldn't stand using it at stock speeds.

A overclocked 8600 just barely made games playable at decent settings even 2 years ago, although thats getting a bit slack now also.

Acer :: Are Laptops Really Not Into Overclocking Their GPU's

Apr 21, 2009

I really can't figure out why I can't overclock my GPU (in sig) while others with the same cards and even the 9200M GS can overclock theirs..so, fellow Acer-mates, are there any of you who have problems overclocking? Or are there any of you who at least had success doing so? Check this post for the details of the problem..

I'm looking into doing a review of the laptop, but not until I really really know my lappy from the inside out.

Acer :: TravelMate 2480 Laptops Freezing

Jan 8, 2008

I am part of a large research study and we have about 150 Acer TravelMate 2480 laptops. We stick these laptops behind or under furniture, out of the way, and leave them there untouched. They have a couple programs running to collect data and that is all. We only connect to them remotely occasionally if something seems wrong with the data collection from a house. By the way, they are connected wirelessly to routers we put in as well.

Anyway, the problem with these laptops is that we have had quite a few hang/freeze inexplicably. When they hang, the data collection programs stop and it becomes remotely inaccessible. After hard booting them off and restarting them they sometimes only show a black/blank screen, but otherwise act like they are started up just fine. Other times after hard booting them off and restarting them they act normal showing all screens during startup. The windows event logs show no errors or indicators of commonality between the crashes. All drivers are up to date. We are running Windows XP on them.

Acer :: Weird Bars On Screen On Two Laptops

Mar 17, 2010

I have a problem with both of my Acer laptops. It's very annoying to say the least because I have to restart the computer every time to resolve the issue.

I have two Acer Aspire laptops, one Aspire 4330 and the other is Aspire 7736Z. Both have vertical bars with scrambly colors. The bars are about an inch and a half apart and about an inch and a half wide. These weird bars only appear after the computer has been in hibernation. What causes them, and how can I resolve them (without restarting every time)?

Acer :: Graphics Card Upgrade On Laptops

Nov 29, 2009

I have a travelmate 5720g, which there is a mxmII slot that looks like it is possible to remove the current hd2600 and replace another one.

I have been searching around about graphics card upgrade on acer laptops, there are cases where people have upgraded from nvidia to ati and ati to nvidia sucessfully without problems.

Does that really mean as long as the mxm slot is capable of installing the graphics card, and upgraded your bios to the lastest version then it is just PLUG AND PLAY ?

Dell :: Does Not Include A OS CD/DVD Anymore?

Dec 26, 2009

My aunt received a Inspiron 17 notebook for Christmas and when the system booted up for the first time it asked her to create a set of restore disks.

I told her to just cancel it out because Dell always includes it's own drivers cd and os cd with a new computer. Then we go looking through the box and there is no software!

WTF? Dell is now turning into HP and refuses to include what customers are alread paying for?

HP G61-408CA :: Will Not Turn On Anymore

May 20, 2014

I have an HP G61-408CA, and it just will not turn on anymore.
 
The power adaptor indicator light is on, and the battery light (lightning bolt) constantly flashes when the battery is connected. This light will also flash faster for about 1 second when I press the power button. Without the battery, the light obviously does not come on at all.
 
I've already tried a hard reset. I've tried turning it on with and without the battery, and I've also tried a different power adaptor.

Dell :: Inspiron 630m Won't Boot Anymore

May 9, 2009

My current Insprion 630m seems terminally ill to me, it will no longer boot into Windows. I could get as far as the XP Welcome screen, but it would just hang whilst logging in.

I can't re-install Windows because the DVD-RW is knackered. It won't work anymore. I tried booting into safe mode but it just crashes.

I think the HDD or some controller on the motherboard could be screwed. Maybe the BIOS is corrupt?
As far as I'm aware the last time I logged in I didn't get any reports of any viruses from my AV software -

Dell :: No Fingerprint Reader On The Studio 17 Anymore

Aug 27, 2009

I'm looking to get a new laptop and wanted to get another Dell Studio 17, but I was astonished when I saw that this model apparently no longer comes with a fingerprint reader? That's enough to make me not want to buy the laptop.

Does anyone know why they got rid of it? Was it too problematic? Customer service was suitably unhelpful during the online chat...

Apple :: Are Macs Really Necessary For Creative Work Anymore

Jan 26, 2009

My friends that are into desktop publishing and graphic design are very pro Mac-centric when it comes to their work. They tell me that Macs are better than PCs (with Windows) when it comes to developing their work.

That may have been the case in the past, but Macs are not really necessary for that line of work anymore. Many applications are now more readily developed for Windows based PCs. On Windows, you get the whole Adobe Creative Suite, many audio manipulation programs superior to Garage Band (i.e. Ableton), and other neat applications. The only thing Macs have over Windows is the excellent Final Cut Pro, although Premiere is more than competent.

Many musicians have been noted to be avid Mac users. However, major pop music producers such as Timbaland and Lil' Jon now develop their music under a Windows-based platform.

Is the Mac necessary (or worth it) for doing this type of work other than the sheer chic and hip factor of Macs?

Dell Alienware M17x R3 :: Does Not Start Anymore

Apr 26, 2013

i have a problem. a few months ago my dell warranty for my alienware has expired. now all of a sudden, the computer crashed and refuses to turn on again. first it restartet and asked my if i want to strt windows normal or safe mode. i entered normal, as i thought it was jus a crash. it showed the start screen, than all lights went off. no matter what i do, it will not start. hitting the power button, however, makes a very short sound, as if it starts reading from HDD but than nothing. took battery off and waited. back on... nothing.

prior to that it showed a blue screen like it did before, when HDD was useless and had to be replaced september last year. sure the warranty of the computer itself is expired, but i still have a warranty for the new HDD. however, the service tag of the notebook says i can not contact e-mail support, because i have no warranty anymore. i can not choose anything that can change that. i fear the HDD is gone again, which i can have replaced, as it still has warranty, but i can ask no one at support, as they assume i have no warranty left.

Dell :: Is The 6800 Ultra Even Worth The Swap Anymore

Dec 14, 2007

I have been looking into upgrading my 9300 from the 6800 to the 6800 Ultra for the past couple of years now. The prices are finally reasonable enough to do the swap. My question is would the swap even be worth it these days? Is it still a good enough card to make it worth my while to come up from the standard 6800 even with overclocking it?

Apple :: Advantages OSX Have Over Win7 Anymore, Creative Program

Apr 20, 2010

It looks like lightroom and premier has closed the gap in the windows land compared to Aperture and Final Cut. And with OpenCL's focus on using the GPU to boost performance and Apple doing it's very best to off Adobe.... is there any real advantage in software in OSX anymore? Or is it all about familiarity and preference?

I was kind of considering the i5 MBP since I'm more into editing than gaming but honestly, if I can just get a beefy Win7 laptop and run software with the same features that are just as reliable I don't really see the point in spending less for more.

Apple :: Windows 7 - Few Buttons On My Keyboard Don't Work Anymore

Nov 12, 2009

My apple had Mac and XP installed on it. My friend suggested me to install Windows 7 on it. And I thought it was a good idea. So I started my XP and runned it up. When win7 was completely installed everything seemed to work. Except that a few buttons on my keyboard don't work anymore now. The button for throwing out CD's and DVD's don't work anymore. And my 'Fn' button doesn't work anymore. Does anybody else have the same problem as me, or does someone know how to fix this. Because I also can't change the brightness. Which is set to maximum at the moment.

HP Networking :: G72 Notebook PC Can't Pick Up Wireless Connection Anymore

Aug 28, 2014

I have the HP G72 Notebook PC and it operates on the windows 7 home premium 64-bit operating system. I was once able to get on my internet without any issues. I changed my carrier to uverse and was still able to connect for a week or two and then one day my computer says that no internet connection is found. Other computers connect just fine except mine's. I made sure that the wireless key was engaged and it was.

I then tried to restore my computer to an earlier date in hopes that whatever happened would be reversed. The system wouldn't allow it and wouldn't complete the request. Now When trouble shooting i also get the following message. "an error occurred while loading the troubleshooter: An unexpected error has occurred. the troubleshooting wizard can't continue." The only thing that I remember doing before this problem occurred was changing from google internet surfing to explore. It work for a short time thereafter and then stopped.

HP 625 OS/Software :: Laptop Won't Charge Anymore - Battery Almost Dead?

Jul 21, 2014

Is there any way to charge my battery now? I think my battery is completely dead now. Over the past few months, it's been staying turned on for less and less time without it's chord. Today, it said "battery 100%" "6 min". Usually, I have it charging just by turning the charger chord in some weird positions. I'm not sure if it's faulty wiring or not. I would much rather just buy a new battery than deal with faulty wiring.
 
Yes, I have been getting the change your battery thing in the start up menu. I have an HP 625, and have had it for over 3 years now. In the past year, I've been having to adjust my wire just so it can charge. It jiggles around a little bit when inside, but the chord/plug itself doesn't seem loose or anything... Today, that didn't work at all. I've been trying for the past several hours to move my chord to the right position just so my laptop can turn on. I usually get it charging in no more than 1 minute, but today was different. Last year, I replaced my charging and it seemed to of made it much easier to charge. However, this is a fairly newish charger and it's my battery at fault this time. 
 
Will my issue be resolved just by getting a new battery? I can probably head over to Best Buy or something. Or maybe buy one online. 
 
If you think I may also have a problem with faulty wiring, what can I do to get it fixed? I feel like it would cost me a lot. Or, do you think will getting a new battery resolve my charging issue?

Now it doesn't start up, when I press the power button, the 3 volume keys start to blink for some seconds, then the keyboard light turns on, and the computer turns off after a couple of seconds.
