This is how much space my files took on C:
And this is what it shows it has:
Now according to my calculation there should be 9.74GB free space on C: but as you can see it's showing only 3.88GB!
I have just purchased the Acer Aspire ES1-512 laptop from Tesco, the laptop will be used for college assignments so will involve a lot of typing. The keys are fine apart from the space bar which is pretty much hit and miss, press the centre of the space bar it works fine, but when pressing the edges or near to the bottom of the space bar and it only works some times and others it doesn't work at all. This means going back and having to put in the missing spaces on documents which is pretty time consuming.

My space bar isn't, I have to press on it very hard and sometimes many times to get it to move/space.It seems like it's lower on one side, nothing has happened to it to cause it.
How hard is it to take the keyboard off? AspireV5-552-X814. Or is there a way to fix without keyboard removal.
I have a acer aspire 5050 laptop/notebook and everytime I try to watch a video on youtube or just search the internet, it's slow and the words "low disk space" pops up. I click the button that is suppose to clean the files but when it's done the words "low disk space" pops up again. Can you help me with this problem?
I've opened the my computer and I see Acer (C) It has 0% free space. Underneath acer (C) it says 8.35 MB free of 33.5 GB. I also see Data (D) underneath data d I see 33.1 GB free of 33.2 GB. The last thing I see is something that says unspecified, and underneath it it says DVD RW Drive (E). I don't know what to do next.
When the Timeline series came out, I figured it was the new laptop that I wanted to get and spent the last month or so trying to decide which version to get. When newegg ran the 13" with the SU9400 and the 80GB SSD I figured that was the one for the price. My old laptop had an 80GB HD in it and I only used about 40, so why would I need a 500GB HD? Well I finally bought it and got it yesterday. I've been playing around with it for a day and was deleting some of the garbage installed on it like 20 games! After a while of that I checked to see how much space was on the HD and to my surprise it said 28.0GB Free of 60.5GB!

The weird things is, that there are two hidden partitions:
There are two hidden partitions and they have both 100% free disc space. I know one of them is the recovery from Acer, but it says nothing of the disc space is used !
Luckily, I have a recovery CD.
Another weird thing is in Auslogic Disc Defrag:
There are a removal drive and it's leading to the Windows folder on the C: drive O_O?
Got a Aspire one 722 from mom-in-law. She didn't use it much. Sticker says I have a 320GB HDD but Properties only show 284 GB. How do I recover the lost HD space?
I discovered the space holds MS Office but I can't access Office without purchasing it which I have no need for so this is just a closet full of stuff I don't want and apparently I can't use the storage space either.
I've created a Factory Default Backup with a USB drive with Acer Recovery Management. I see this message which tells me I can delete the recovery partion to free up disk space after I've created the backup but it never gives me the option to do so.
I DO get the option to remove the Driver Recovery Partition after backing it up to USB but not the 10GB Recovery Partition. It's a a HUGE deal on a system that only has a 32GB hard drive.
When I empty my hard drive or delete apps or files I have less room on my hard drive. I have an Aspire V3-9809.

View 5 Replies View RelatedBefore I get grilled for not backing up my documents, I want to say I did, I just forgot about the files in my PSD ( i know of all files to forget).
So I sent my laptop in for repair, comes back they have done a clean install of windows.
I got my laptop back this morning and when i started to transfer my back up files back over i remembered that i forgot to back up my PSD files. Is there any chance of recovering them after a reinstallation of windows? with my knowledge the answer would be no, correct? Hopefully there is some lifesaver out there that knows how to get them back. Awaiting replies and hoping for the best.
forgot to mention my laptop is an acer 6920g.
ACER 2423 confirmed dead. The hard drive should have recoverable files and I want to access them. I put the drive into a USB external enclosure and my desktop can see the drive and its partitions. It will not however read any files. Does ACER have a software code or something that prevents this?

They must be on the hard drive *somewhere* or it'd be asking for the Vista disc when I plug things in or install software.
I transferred some embroidery designs from old XP onto a USB jump drive. When I download them to the Acer windows 8.1 they seem to disappear. I get the little bar window that shows them downloading so I know they must be somewhere! Where do they go? I indicated to put them in "My documents" but they are not there or in the "downloads" section....
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have got a Acer 5930G John Lewis model. I flashed my Nvidia 9600M GT 512mb to overclock it. Everything was ok initially and I was able to play most games maxxed out.
After about 9 months things started going wrong. Initially the laptop would only crash when playing a heavy game such as FEAR or crysis for a long period of time. Then as time went on, the laptop become less tolerant to any GPU processing and now crashes even crashes when playing Quake Live or CS 1.6.
Migrating to Win 7 temporarily fixed the problem, but then things quicky went wrong again.
Before making any modifications, I had backed up all my files on a USB drive as I had no optical media at the time, unfortunately, the drive was placed into a mac by a friend by accident and subsequently formatted. OOPS.
So, I have lost all my original NVflash files and Im stuck with a 9600M that can't take it anymore. Is there anyway I can reclock the timings on the Gfx card or am I screwed?
I can't seem to install anything into program files, or any folder on drive C, only drive D. I am an administrator but the computer says I don't have rights to install things. The properties for the Program Files folder doesn't have any premissions set, and when I try to set some it says access is denied.
My laptop is an Acer Aspire 6920G, running windows vista.
I am using a Acer 5610 with Vista and a touchpad. Often when I am moving my pointer over a list of files, with the touchpad, the pointer drags and drops files without clicking. Very annoying. I undo alot of unwanted moves. Acer email support does not respond....
View 5 Replies View RelatedThe battery of my Acer Aspire v5 died while it was copying files over wireless. The batter was very low, but i thought that i could squeeze in the file copy any ways. Well, I was wrong. The battery died, and now it refuses to charge. When i try to turn it on, the battery light flashes 5 times and it does NOT turn on.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an Acer Aspire E5-511 that stopped booting last saturday, from what I've found I have the black screen of death (or a dead motherboard, but I'm trying to keep it positive). I think I have the proper bios .fd files, but I'm not too sure, and I can't be sure about what to name said file. I can't be sure I'm going into the Crisis mode, but I do know that If I'm holding down fn+esc when I hit the power button then the processor fan runs alot faster.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded the bios on my Acer Aspire One 725-0670 from version 1 to 1.08. Now I am experiencing blue screen of death intermittently so I would like to rollback to the prior bios version to see if that would resolve the issue.
I went to the Acer drivers website but only the newer 1.08 version is there.
One way I saw on the web to rollback the bios was to disconnect the button cell battery on the motherboard - the writer says that will default the computer to the original bios.
Unfortunately that involves an almost complete disassembly of the computer. Original bios available or some alternate method to get back to bios version 1.
I'm trying to reflash my BIOS from a USB stick to save a dead Aspire V5-122P. All I find is that I should extract the BIOS files found on the Acer website and load the resulting .fd file onto a USB.However, as my laptop is dead I have only a borrowed MacBook to work with, and none of my efforts to unzip the .exe file to its constituent parts have been successful. What is the BIOS files available for the V5-122P can be extracted, and if not tell me if there's any other way to find the correct files to reflash the BIOS?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy HDD says I have 188 out of 451GB. I can account for most of it and I calculate I should have 100GB more.
My program files(x86) properties is 63.1GB, program files= 9.32GB, Documents = 23.5, music = 9.53. photos and vids are under a gig. Autodesk = 26.4GB. Windows = 23.2GB
I just did a semiclean install and clocked in at just over 16 gb. I've installed a few small programs and now i'm up over 22gb. I've already done all the obvious things such as turning off system restore, turning off hibernation, removing sp1 install files, etc.
The biggest problem is my winsxs folder, which windows explorer puts at 11.1gb. I've read that this number may be a little inflated, but it's right in line with tune up utilities 09. I don't want to delete something useful, but the size of this folder is crazy. I've done some research on the point of this folder, but i never had problems in xp with dlls and i could install xp twice in the size this folder occupies. There is 3gb worth of microsoft-windows-naturallanguage6 files. Microsoft-windows-moviesamples is 150 mb. There is also an into movie for media center that's 50mb. Are there files that I can safely delete or do I just have to bend over and take it?
The space bar on my kb works, but if I hit it on the far right or far left corner it does not register.
if I may be able to bend the button's switch up a little so it's more sensitive.
a 200 GB computer but only 190 GB is made accessible to you. I know why I don't get all 200 GB I pay for, and this thread wasn't made for anyone to discuss that.
All I want to know is if I get a 500 GB 13" MBP today ... How much HDD space will be made available to me per "My system" or "My Mac" (Whatever is the Apple equivalent of right clicking and hitting properties in Windows).
I want a 500 GB HDD because I want to carry my Time Machine backups with me. By the way, I've never owned a Mac ... I've toyed around with them at Bestbuy and what not, I don't need OSX, but I just cannot find another laptop that has the style and durability of a aluminum chassis of the MBP.
EDIT: On a side note, would it be cheaper to get the 13" stock model and upgrade the HDD myself? Does anyone know what 2.5" HDDs out there are compatible with the MBP? I'm hoping to get a 500GB or 1TB (7200 rpm) version.
