When trying to play a movie on Acer 5735 w/Vista, the audio plays but I get no video.
I've checked for the latest updates on Vista and Acer Arcade.
i have a problem with my acer 6920G. From time to time when i put my computer on I get this windows xp (while i'm running vista) loading screen and Acer Arcade Deluxe gets booted. (Even though i uninstalled it?) So i'd like to know if there is any solution for this problem.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm just wondering if AAD comes with the Cyberlink H.264 codec - the one that enables GPU decoding. Because if it does, I have a reason to install that thing back on my system.
Here's how you can check. Open up Windows Media Player. Right-click on the top bar, go to Help, then About Windows Media Player. Click the Technical Support Information link in that box, and your Internet browser will open with an HTML file with all your codecs. Save a copy of that HTML, upload it somewhere like RapidShare/MegaUpload, and post the link here.
I'll report back with my findings - if it means we don't need to buy CoreAVC or another decoder, I'm all for it.
i am looking to download the latest version of acer arcade deluxe (2.0.5814) for my 8920 i have version 2.0.5343. does anyone know where to download it because when i try and update through the program it keeps saying download fail tried calling acer they didnt even know about the problem until i addressed it.
i know about that one website going around but that doesnt have the latest version
i've recently bought an acer aspire 5739G and i've noticed that the notebook also boots up when i press the arcade deluxe key. After the boot screen with the acer logo i just get a blinking cursor in the top left corner of the screen.
I even tried booting like this with an audio CD or DVD inside, thinking it's some sort of multimedia mode, but with no luck.
I've noticed that in the audio settings section of Acer Arcade Deluxe, the box for Output Mode says None.
I'm running the latest version of Arcade Deluxe (2.6.7426) on my 6935G with Windows 7 Home Premium x64.
Just wondering if this is normal?
I downloaded the latest updates for Acer Arcade Deluxe a couple of days ago, using the Live Update feature within the program, and noticed today that McAfee has quarantined two files related to this program.
The files are both located in c:program filesacer arcade deluxeplaymovievideofilter. The first is BCMDFILTER.DLL, this is detected as Artemis!2309D0D4349A (Trojan) and the other is CLDABCD.DLL, detected as Artemis!202C3E6FA905 (Trojan).
Can anyone advise on these files please? Are they trojans or are they legitimate? I have forwarded the files to McAfee and have no idea whether to allow these files or not.
I'm playing a film through the arcade deluxe on an Acer Aspire 8942g i7 running windows 7 home premium, and the music sounds excellent, however the speech is exceptionally quiet, is there a setting somewhere that I'm missing to get the sound how it should be?

i think after backing up i might do a reinstall. just to confirm, if i use the recovery dvd, D:/ will not be touched right? (D:/ is where my files will be saved)
I have seen closed threads on this subject on this forum, but not found a "this worked" conclusion. However, I'm hoping that someone may know the answer, so here I go.
An accidental press (a cable fell on it) of the Acer Arcade button when the machine was turned off caused it to start up and install Acer Arcade (couldn't stop it installing) which appears to load in a cut down Windows XP shell in a separate partition and should, I'm told, switch back to the main VISTA environment on shutting down - but it doesn't! The machine just goes into hibernation mode!
I have searched the "net", spent a long time on the phone with a Technician, and basically nothing has worked - can get into the BIOS and have turned off D2D which was enabled, can't get to Windows Safe Mode, or VISTA. I can get into various forms of recovery options, but they can't find the operating system, etc etc!
I'm facing full recovery and losing everything that hasn't been backed up and spending ages reinstalling everything, which I don't want to have to do if I can help it! Also, I could go through this whole process and still risk the same thing happening again in the future, which is really frightening! So if I have to do that does anybody know of any way I could disable this awful button afterwards - this is supposed to be a working laptop, not a games and video toy!
I've installed a second hd in my 8935g for an xp install, and got a couple of q's before I get stuck in.
1. is there way to install windows XP as a "genuine" acer oem install "like the "genuine win 7 install procedure"?
2. And is there info on ways to recreate the "acer arcade" button usage to boot win 7 and a full xp from the new disc depending on wether I press power button or media button.?
I've done some searching and found some good info, especially re ACHI slipstreaming, but haven't found anyone using the arcade button for an alternative boot method (other than to force different video card in win 7)
I have an Acer Aspire 6930 and it has the easy launch button for the Arcade Utility. I can not get it to launch and I do not see it in the programs. How can I tell if I have the Arcade Utility or not even though the button is there? The WLAN and internet buttons work but not the bluetooth or arcade ones. I'v not found any answers on the web.
View 4 Replies View RelatedWas using the Acer Arcade and was informed about the latest patch by the Live Update.
I ran the install patch and during install the McAfee informed me that two of the files were trojams and had to be removed. The files were CL26934.RRA and CLDO7416.RRA, so now when I stick my blu-ray into the drive I get an unexpected error from the Acer Arcade and it won't run.
So where did the files go, and why would ACER put out a patch that conflicts with the pre-installed anti-virus?
an issue I have, regarding video playback. Whenever I watch a video file on my HP DV6T, the playback seems rather grainy.
The video playback seemed much more clearer of a picture on my dv5z, and I am wondering if it has to do with the resolution.
Could this be because of the 16" 1366x768 resolution?
All I want is to be able to watch my movies or video files FULL SCREEN, and in good video quality.
can i change out the acer 6920 laptops video card? if so, how good of one can i put in?

Many full screen games go black after an unkown period of time.
The game freezes and will not recover, background music can still be heard. The ! tray icon tells me display has had an error and recovered.
Happens with Crysis, Assassins Creed, and Mass Effect.
Regular use, applications, COD4MP and older games are unaffected.
I initially was under the impression that this was due to TMM looking for alternate displays, but it since has been disabled.
This was happening with released drivers, updated to 177.92 and the issue was not resolved.
It is unpredictable, games run smooth until crash. Temp is usually kind of warm but nothing extreme, low/mid 60c at time of crash.
I own a 5672 with the mobility x1400 card. I saw some x1800s online for sale. Is it possible for me to pop one in my laptop and make it work?
My current configuration is working, I'm just trying to up the frame rate a little.
My 1712 video card has just died. Does anyone know of any options to the Geforce 5700 that will work? I don't use the computer for gaming so playing a dvd is the most taxing task the card would be hit with,
View 4 Replies View RelatedI new the Acer A5739G did not have a firewire port, but I was unaware it did not have an Express card slot or PCMCIA slot.
I will need to hook up my miniDV camcorder to the notebook to transfer video, but I don't know how I can do it now since I connect my video card via firewire. I don't know if there is something I can purchase to use the available eSATA port?
Is there something I can get (i.e. adapter) so I can transfer my videos?
I would like to upgrade my card from a 9500M GS to HD3650 is this possible?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI have just received an Acer 5935 and I have already formatted and reinstalled Vista 32 Ultimate SP2.
The laptop has two video cards: a nVidia GT130 1GB and an Intel GM4500.
I downloaded the latest nVidia WHQL notebook driver (186.03) for my graphic card but i can't install it.
The installation stops and I have the following message: "hardware not recognised".
I am obliged to use the older Acer driver and you know they never update it to the latest and most performant release.
Anyway, it's not because of the two graphic cards...
I have had the same problem with a Dell Studio 1555 which has an ATi HD4570 512MB.
I tried the latest modded Catalyst (6.6) and I was obliged to install Dell's driver... but I could install the same driver on another laptop (Dell Studio 1535) with a HD3450.
I have an Acer Aspire 5735Z and i want to increase the video memory share but in BIOS i can't acces the option to increase it. I have the supervizor password and i can change every thing in BIOS exept for the video memory share.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am hoping i am able to replace my video card in my 5920g.
I believe it is MXM2 and as such can be replaced.
The current card is the nvidia 8600m-gs and I'm very much afraid it isn't going to last very long, i bought this machine to play games (COD4, Bioshockand such), since the 8600 is included in the bad cards list you can see my dilemma.
My questions are,
Can this card be replaced?
If so what can i replace it with other than the 8 series nvidias?
How difficult would it be to replace? I'm not afraid to open it up and i've done a bit of work on other systems.
When I check in the bios, it has the video memory set at 64mb. It does not give me the option to change this value like my old aspire 5100. Does anyone know of a way to increase the video memory on this lappy?

I have had a long and complicated history with the product. I bought it back in March.
Then, I got a virus on the system. I did not get a restore CD with the laptop so I installed XP on the laptop (initially it came with Vista). This installation was on a separate hard drive than what came initially with the laptop. Also, my monitor got broken so I had to replace it with one from an older HP laptop of mine.
Now the product had some problems, but ran with XP fine. There were problems with my video card since the drivers I needed to install were integrated with Vista.
Now, I finally reinstalled Vista on the laptop. Everything is almost back to normal... except I have one BIG problem. My device control reads that I have a "standard vga video adapter" for my video card. This is entirely false as I have an Nvideo card.
I have tried installing drivers from Acer's website but to no avail. I have gotten the error message :"Nvidia setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware"
I have a Acer Extensa 4630Z. One of the features I have is a built in microphone and crystal eye web cam. I tried to set up what they call video conferencing and kept hitting a wall.how I can use this feature?

View 4 Replies View RelatedThis machine comes with the ATI Radeon Xpress 1250 integrated card and 2gb of RAM. In Bios I see allocated memory set at 256mb and it goes no higher.
I was thinking of increasing RAM to 4gb. What I am trying to do is watch video, for example, tv programs on Hulu and what I get now is choppy picture and freezing.
Would increasing RAM to the max of 4gb correct this or not?
