YOU CAN IGNORE THIS PART
I tried many ways to find out why i feel stutte while i play a game.
like changing graphics drivers, undervolting, overclocking, downclocking, and so on, nothing works for me at all.
Anyway, I finally find out its the problem with Intel SpeedStep, and i was looking for a way to disable it, but i found nothing.
Then I tried change settings from software, one day i finally find out a way to stop the downclocking while gaming, and i wanna share it to your guyz because we love this laptop.
You will just need to install the RightMark CPU Clock Utility v2.35 or above version to do this instruction.
before you start your game, you need to make sure that your CPU is running on maximum speed by using Acer ePower Management, also make sure the RM CPU Clock is minimized to system tray..................................
My MBP 13 is coming this Monday. I've learned over time how to undervolt CPU in Windows.
Now my question is, is there a guide to undervolting the CPU in OSX? I understand that CoolBook can be tuned to downclock the CPU, reducing its performance when the extra power is unnecessary.
Lately (last two weeks) my gpu has been dowclocking itself, that wouldnt be problem if it wasnt happening ingames (wow, wc3, hl2), even with powerplay off gpu still downcloacks itself to 392/250 from 425/380 and funny thing is, gpu alone swaps between those modes arounde once per minute. also when i alt+tab gpu clocks itself back to 425/380 (all this is happening while ingame)
now that isnt problem in wc3, but in hl2 and wow couses low fps (3-4 )instead of regular 40+ making games unplayable
i am using windows 7 x64, with all the leatest updates, didnt test if this happens on xp but willing to try, problem is i lost my recovery cd-s :S
Week b4 this started to happen i used mobility driver moder and instaled catalyst 9.3, noticed significal fps boost in wow and hl-2, even tryed fresh win instal with vista64 drivers for gpu from hp page (very old drivers) still it didnt solve my problem, mbo has latest bios availible from hp.
Some help would be awsome as i'm rly out of options and what to do, and rly dont feel like reinstaling windows once again ...
could i somehow disable powerplay or owerride it with ati tray tools? problem is i cant run any 3d aplication if att is on they just dont wanna start.
I just wanted to know if this is normal. In XP, my early 2009 macbook (check my sig) only downclocks the processor to 1.59GHz (from 2.0GHz) in power saver mode. My 2008 macbook (intel) would downclock to 800MHz (from 2.1GHz). That just doesn't seem right, is that normal? Just doesn't seem like much of a power saver to me.
has anyone come across a problem with their full stop/forward arrow button, mine seems not to work, i am assuming it is a fault on the keyboard, can this be easilly rectified without returning to base as i need the beast every day.
Acer crashes and stripes appear on screen (picture)
i try all. Dismantle notebook and display and check all the cables tucked, reinstal windows (thus eliminating the possibility that this may notebook hardware control)
stripe appear to be in the wound or the movement of the table with display
Acer: Full model: E1-522-65208G1TMnkkI just bought this 'fully' loaded notebook with 8 GB RAM, 1 TB Disk and an AMD 6 in Switzerland. However, using it is no pleasure as it just blows air from and makes CONSTANT fan noise. The device, bottom does not get hot though.What do I do - Bios update? Windows 8.1 ?
I just bought an ACER E5-771G-54N6 and after 2 days my touchpad just stop working (Win 8.1 , 64-bit). This is obviously a software (driver) issue, and after researching and finding out that a Windows reisntall is the only solution, I find that hard to believe that this can't be fixed through a patch. These type of problems shouldn't be occurring on brand new laptops.
When I try to turn it on I'll just get a black screen. The fan will start but will stop eventually. When I try to hard reset it it won't turn off the fan will just start again. I have to plug out the AC so I can be able to power it again. And also last thing I remember is that the clock is not always on sync whenever I start it.
I have bought a 500gb SATA HDD to replace the stock 250gb one.
I would install the drivers from the website but for some reason they don't seem to detect the webcam etc. I also can not find the link for the bluray player.
Is there a version of the original restore image on the interwebs anywhere
I have noticed my 6920g's fan to go annoying loud when playing Warcraft, which indeed is a pretty graphic instensive game depending where you are in WoW.
My question is to anyone else who owns a 6920g and plays WoW, do you have the same fan problems as me? Sure I understand it isnt going to be silent but recently it has seemed to get worse and it's really doing my nut in.
Comments and thoughts, obviously welcome.
I tried doing a search for similar problems but I kept getting a black screen for some reason.
I've just bought the wife a new laptop and it's a 6920g (same as mine lol) with exactly the same spec as mine! but what im wondering is, would it be posible to somehow make a mirror image of my hd and transfer it to her new one? im thinking of using e recovery manager and send her com my user created back up image and then restore it on her side, but im not sure if this would work.
Right after Vista got a virus and gave up on me i took the plunge and installed xp little did i know how much of a nightmare it was going to be. i know there are a few more threads like this but my acer has the hd 3650 and i cant find the drivers anywhere people direct me to a page on the ati website but when i download them it says you do not have the proper hardware for these drivers to be installed . In device manager Display adapters isnt even listed.I stil have ? By network controller uknown device usb device and video controller (vga Compatible)
I have a 6920G with 4Gb of RAM, a C2D T9300 and the Geforce 9500GS running Vista 64-bit.
For some reason I'm only getting 3DMark03 scores around 5200-5300 but I've seen benchmarks of identical systems much much higher. dfegtersgft Why is this?
My brother-in-law has a 6920 with a gig less RAM, a lesser C2D T5700 but a Radeon HD3650 and his 3DMark03 score is 10500.
Any 6920G owner have their hard drive access light stuck on "on" for about 30 seconds or so and have their laptops freeze for this duration? Freeze as in as soon as I click any window, it turns white. This happens every now and then, doesn't matter what I'm doing.
My 6920G shut it'sself off, and now it won't turn on. When I press the power button, it flashes on then off. It does this repeatedly if I hold it down.
I've found most of the drivers for xp64bit but i read that tuba speaker doesn't work well (even if you install the corrent drivers from acer) and that's very dissapointing...
I'm brand new to laptops and just bought an Acer Inspire 6920G and love it!
The only problem is that it came with Vista and keeps giving me problems. So i got out my windows xp cd and tried to reformat it. But after i select to install XP, i get a screen saying that it was unable to find a hard disc and that i might need to run a setup or diagnostic. My computer shows an ACER(C) drive and then a DATA(D) drive, but my windows xp doesn't see it

if anybody has a older version of the bios for Acer aspire 6920G, please send it to tbulls@gmail.com, thanks so much.
I've refreshed my bios to 1.07 and I have tried 1.06 and 1.10. I am not sure if they are official release version, but since I've refreshed my bios with these versions, my computer fails.
In the past, I could use recovery DVD to restore my system, and audio drive work fine, very high quality. Now it's gone, even I use recovery DVD, my audio drive does not works fine.
It sounds like a realtek HD public drive (low sound quality), and I cannot use plug-in microphone when 5.1 Dolby effect opened.
No matter what I do it will not take a microphone. The mic is working, I plugged it into an amp. It can't be the connector as I just got a new one today and tried it on the Aux input of a headphone amp.
This is absolutely ridiculous. I remember having this trouble before. I can't even seen to access "line in" as an option when recording anymore either. What's going on? I need to record some stuff and I can't use the crappy in built mic for that.
I made a purchase to upgrade my cpu to a T9300, today I decided to attempt to upgrade my gpu as I found this on ebay [url] (9600m gt for £109), by the way I am aware of the bios isue and needing a hdmi connection to begin with! but now I thought that seen as I done all this allready that I mayaswell make it a clean sweep and go for a faster hdd whille I'm at it
But what I would like to know is, would I be able to install a new coppy of vista on to my new hdd then install empowering technology and then use the back up image that I have allready created on my external hdd so that I would'nt have to mess around with installing every single one of my programs, apps and games again? as it litteraly takes me about 2-3 days to get it the way I want it (recently took it back tio factory default btw and it was a nightmare lol), or is there a better way to go around it?
I've had the Acer 6920G for quite some time, I realized I should put a stop to throttling/downclocking.
I tried the several ways which came from this site, especially from flipfire and DarkSilver. I already undervolted my cpu, but after I played L4D2 for about 10 mins it started to throttle again. And the post which DarkSilver made was to go to regedit and change some settings in the RightMark CPU Utility, I've done that yet it still throttled.
I also attempted to go to BIOS and check if I could disable EIST, but there was no option. Does anyone have any idea how to solve this? I've updated my drivers and everything, and I also upgraded to Windwos 7 - but it still stays the same way.
