Acer :: Timeline 1810TZ Wakes Up From Standby

Mar 23, 2010

I've got a problem with my 1810TZ. It wakes up from standby sometimes even when it's closed. If I have it in a case, it gets really hot.

I even know why it wakes up. Although the system log (Win7x64) says the power button is the bad guy, it's one of the keyboard keys. When the laptop is closed, and I press the display down on the right side, one of the keys is pressed (I guess something around the enter button).

Is there a way to disable the keyboard to wake the computer up? ........

Acer :: Timeline 1810TZ - Add Multimedia Key Functions To Keyboard With Software

Feb 19, 2010

I have an Acer Timeline 1810TZ.

I'm really missing the multimedia buttons on my old Dell lappy, mostly the Play/Pause, Next, Back buttons, because I listen to music a ton with headphones on the go.

So I was wondering if anyone knows of any software or keyboard drivers I can use to add those such functions? Maybe so I can use Fn+C = Play, Fn+V = Back, Fn+B = Next for example?

Acer :: Brandnew Aspire Timeline 1810TZ G3-Switch Not Working After Formating

Dec 26, 2009

My girlfriend gave me a brandnew Aspire Timeline 1810TZ with build in G3 (UMTS) for Christmas. When i played around with the preinstalled system (Windows 7 Home Premium x64), I could use the hardware switch in the front of the chassis to enable/ disable the build-in G3-Module.

But as you know, the preinstalled OS are normally very slow, so i formatted the System and installed Windows 7 Professional x64. After installation of all drivers from the Acer website, the switch for enabling the G3 didn't worked anymore! I reformated again with Windows 7 Home Premium x64, but there was the same Picture: No, response from the G3-Switch.

The funny thing is: G3 and WLAN share the same physical hardware switch (you have to flip it to the left to enable/disable G3, and to enable/ disable WLAN you have to flip it to the right).

Flipping the switch to the right activated WLAN without any problem!

I have no idea how to fix this (tried every driver i could find).

Acer :: Timeline 1810TZ Video Flicker/choppy Issue, Wrong Driver

Jan 1, 2010

I just bought an Acer Timeline 1810TZ a few days ago. I'm having problems with video flickering when I play .avi files and every other file format in VLC media player, I tried a few other players and it's the same issue. I'm pretty sure it's the video drivers I'm using but I don't know how to fix it. I did a clean install of Windows 7 ultimate the day I got it. The image and audio speed is fine on the screen but there's flickering lines across the screen when the camera moves around.

it's not fun watching flickering movies.

I have installed the Mobile Intel® GS45 Express Chipset drivers just as recommended on this forum Acer 1410, 1810, 3810, 4810, 5810 Timeline Drivers, Software, Tweaks and Settings FAQ

Acer :: 1410 Wakes From Sleep By Itself, But ONLY When Lid Closed

Oct 18, 2009

My 1410 has a very strange problem. If I put it to sleep with the lid open, it will properly stay asleep for hours and hours.

However, if I then close the lid, it will always wake up within 5 minutes (I can tell by the status lights). This happens regardless of the lid-closing action I have specified in Windows (hibernate, sleep, none).

If I tell it to hibernate on lid-closure, it will hibernate properly. If I tell it to sleep on lid closure, and close the lid, it will go to sleep and then quickly wake up again. What the hell could be doing this, and how can I fix it?

The laptop is a bone-stock aspire 1410, running windows 7-64, with up-to-date drivers and the latest BIOS (happened with old BIOS too).

Acer :: How Much Battery Do You Actually Get Out Of Your 1810TZ

Dec 17, 2009

Battery bar is holding pretty steady for me at 7:10 at total capacity. This is with brightness generally being at one step from the lowest, cpu at 1200, wifi, lan, etc on, and steady use of web/outlook/video without giving enough time for the screen to turn off.

Acer :: Undervolting Aspire 1810TZ

May 5, 2010

Im a newcomer to both laptops and this forum. I found your ultimate 1410/1810 thread and I was redirected to these two threads:

Undervolting guide and 1810T undervolting guide

I managed to get up the profile for the RMClock but somehow the program showed me only one mutliplier, 6X. The CPU ran at 0.9V, but at 1,2GHz, while it should do 1,3GHz under load. I uninstalled the program and the CPU ran at 1,3GHz once again. I cant seem to find out where to get the second 6,5X multiplier

Acer :: Installed Win 7 Pro Wrong On My 1810TZ

Jan 3, 2010

I have an 1810TZ and then I bought an 1810T. (Long Story)

My problem is with the TZ:
I made an Image of the system, as suggested, then I "Upgraded" the Win 7 Home system to Pro.
But I screwed up by installing the 32bit version instead of the 64bit.

The only way it would let me come back to the 64bit version of Pro was to do a "Clean install".

Here’s my problem:
1) Now the PC takes a Loooong Time to boot.

2) The PC has a 320Gb HDD but shows only 185Gb of "Total space" on C: .

The T with the same HDD, shows 285Gb total space.

Wow... Win 7 Pro takes 35GB of disk space? Did I do something wrong here too?

3) Now there is a hidden "System" D: drive using 100Mb, that was not there before.

I don't know how to get rid of the D: drive. It won't let me delete it or access it.

Something is weird here. I did not install any applications yet.

The PC does not recognize the "Image Disks" I made.

I started to re-install Win 7 Pro… but I didn't think that would get rid of the D: drive or fix the problem, so I didn't do it.

I think I need to re-format the HDD. But I'm not sure how to do it right and don't want to make things worse.

This is not the DOS 3.1 machine I used to have.

On the other hand:
When I got the 1810T I did a “Clean install” of WIN 7 Pro 64bit before I did anything else. There are no problems with the "T".

I ordered a Factory System Disk for the "TZ" from Acer and it should be here in a couple of days. I ordered it before I found this forum.

Acer :: 1810TZ Wireless Drivers

Sep 10, 2009

I am installing Vista 32 for a friend on his Aspire 1810TZ. A very new model I believe.

As yet I havn't been able to sourse the correct Wifi drivers. The drivers from the Acer site (intel 5100 and Atheros) Fail. The Atheros drivers tell me that the card isnt present whilst the intel drivers tell me that they may not be compatible then after installing, the device is reported as working properly but the front switch fails to turn the wireless on and, no networks are found in range. The intel diagnostic software reports the wireless as being switched off and sometimes as being on but with no networks to scan.

Any ideas as to what wireless device is present in this model or whether I should be looking at the wireless switch itself as a source of the problem?

Acer :: 1810TZ And YouTube 1080p

Jan 4, 2010

I've recently purchased an Acer Aspire Timeline 1810TZ. I've removed all the bloatware, updated all drivers (including graphics, chipset, sound) and upgraded to latest BIOS.

It plays 1080p videos stored on the network absolutely perfectly, but it is jerky when playing YouTube 1080p content. It just about handles 720p YouTube. (I've tried both Flash 10 on IE and 10.1 on FF/Chrome). It runs iPlayer HD and Vimeo HD fine.

Has anyone else who has an 1810TZ managed to get YouTube HD working smoothly?
If not, is there anything else I can try and do we think that the final build of Flash 10.1 will improve things? Would a fourth gig of ram help?

Acer :: Can I Get A Faster Charger For My 1810TZ

Is it possible to get a faster charger that will not toast my computer and/or me?

Acer :: 1810TZ Battery In 1410

Oct 18, 2009

I'm interested in picking up an Acer 1410, but I've been looking at the specs for the new US version of the 1810TZ dual-core version. The spec sheet says that it comes with a 6-cell 5600 mAh battery, and the 1410 comes with a 6-cell 4200 mAh battery. I figure, since the bodies are the same, do you think that the larger battery from the 1810TZ will fit into the 1410? That would be an excellent upgrade to the already good battery life of the 1410.

Acer :: 1810TZ Clean Install

Mar 4, 2010

I have bought today an Acer 1810TZ. I dont like the bloated Windows and would like to do a reinstall.

1) I am not sure what to do with the 12 GB Recovery Partition (Shall I save it on a 4 GB USB Stick and store it on DVD and then kill the partition?)

2) What shall I do with the other hidden Reserved Partition, that contains a Boot manager
in many different languages. Do I really need that?

What happens if everything is deleted and i press ALT + F10 for the recovery option? Would it then crash not being able to find those partitions?

3) What happens if I wanted to make this like the factory settings? Would I be able to recreate these partitions and copy the software back? Would it work like this?

Acer :: Aspire 1810TZ And Win7

Jan 20, 2010

I have a strange problem with Win7 (no matter if x86 or x64)...

I have 30Mbit internet connection, so I want to download some bigger files through internet during night.

I have all extra power features disabled (on CPU slowdown and screen dim and off allowed) and after few hours (sometimes 1, sometimes 4), the Windows 7 is in one of the two states:

a) when I move the mouse to wake up screen, only cursor goes up and I must restart notebook

b) when I move the mouse to wake up screen, screen goes up, but NO INTERNET CONNECTION

Must say, that it is the same with WIFI and also ETHERNET and is for sure Win7 problem, as when I install WinXP, everything is fine.

Acer :: 1810tz Reset To Default

Apr 19, 2010

I want to sell my 1810tz notebook because of different reasons, one is the buzzing noise problem over speaker or line-out. So is there any easy way in resetting the 1810tz drive C: to default state like out of the box state? There is a hidden partition 12Gb in size, is that a backup Windows 7 installation partition I can access while booting or so? And if yes, will it delete all data stored on the HDD just like clean installation?

Acer :: 1810tz Audio - Background Noises

Dec 2, 2009

I have an issue with my 1810tz, Win7 64bit. There are these annoying buzzing noises when I use headphones over audio out. They are corresponding with the CPU load, when the CPU is idling they are louder and constant when the CPU is working they change the buzzing rhythmic but are not gone. I cant really they if they are there too over the build in speakers there is this buzzing sound sometimes, but I guess its the hdd in this case.

Disabling the audio btw does not mute this buzzing noises too. I had this issue maybe 8 years ago on my first desktop with integrated Realtek audio chip, so I guess its a driver issue or bad manufacturing like bad shielding or such. Im using latest Realtek audio drivers.

Acer :: Bluetooth On Frehsly-installed 1810TZ

Mar 30, 2010

when I received my new 1810TZ last night was nuke it, kill the partitions, and start fresh. Installed my copy of Win7 Pro, and everything was good. All the drivers set up without issue.

Except the Bluetooth ones.

When I first ran the BT launcher, it said it couldn't find BT on my computer, and quit. So I dug into the folders and ran the installers manually.

As you can see, Windows apparently agrees that I have BT installed. In fact, after manually installing the drivers, running the BT launcher brings up a Repair dialogue. For all intents and purposes, Windows seems to be happy with my BT drivers.

Except that Windows itself won't run any Bluetooth software. When I type "Bluetooth" in the Start Menu box, I don't see options for "Add Bluetooth Devices" and the like. There's likewise nothing under the Control Panel, nor anything in my Programs lists.

If the drivers (supposedly) installed correctly, and the OS installed without incident, why can't I set up any Bluetooth pairings?

Acer :: 1810TZ, Statically Charged Screen When On AC

Acer :: 1810TZ Charger Rate Results

Apr 17, 2010

Done some testing of chargers and charge rates. My non scientific findings as follows.

Battery start capacity 91.3%.

After 19 minute charge time -

Using 70watt charger :

Off 98%
On low power 98%
On full power 97%

Using 30watt charger :

Off 98%
On low power 97.5%
On full power 94.5%

To conclude the larger charger mostly maintains charge rate regardless of load on the computer.

The standard 30w charger maintains its charge rate on normal use, yet go to 100% CPU and charge rate drops by around 50%. It possible this could be far worse with an external USB HDD attached, 3G dongle and so on.

It seems that the computer can consume a little more than the 30w charger can output, but only of use in extreme circumstances.

Even with a larger charger the charge rate may drop if you had the computer consuming excessive levels of power, not sure what point this may occur.

Additionally batterymon charge rate indicator did not support the real world test.

Acer :: What Games (if Any) Do You Play On Your 1810T/1810TZ

I was thinking of picking up a 1810T with an SU7300 and 4GB DDR2; I want something portable, good on battery, and for (very) light gaming.

How would the 4500MHD handle KOTOR, WarCraft III, or TorchLight? These aren't very demanding games and I was hoping to be able to play them on the go...

Honestly, the 1810T is a very nice little system!

Acer :: Ubuntu UNR 9.10 (Linux) Works Wonderful On My 1810tz

Nov 6, 2009

I've installed ubuntu netbook remix, and it really works great out of the box. Didn't try 720P youtube streaming yet.

Pros I found out so far (which are relevant):
- Great battery life, I had 35% left, and I still managed to get 3.5 hours out of it, including one hour streaming (reasonable quality), and half an hour playing Diablo II (game). I'm gonna give an update tomorrow!
- looks are quite nice
- very responsive
- plays 720P and 1080P fluently
- camera works
- wifi works good
- volume of speakers is good
- can be installed from within the windows OS
- pinguin

Cons
- two finger scrolling doesn't work yet, only one finger (using the edge) scrolling.
- keyboard layout had to be set to US
- unfamiliar applications, for some windows applications you might not have a substitute, but that's a con of Linux in general...
- different
