Laptop Battery Acer Aspire One D250 Won't Charge To 100
Jul 26, 2012
I've only had the Acer Aspire One D250 laptop for less than a year, and the battery already started to fail. For some reason, it never charges up to 100% and after leaving it charging, the white light starts blinking Akku Acer Aspire One D250,Adapter Acer Aspire One D250
I have been round the forums trying to get help rebuilding my D250. I have built new partitions on it but keep getting the same message not matter what I try: Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing partition.
I have made sure ACHI is set in bios but just cannot install Windows 7. I have used different media (usb and cdrom) and different versions of Windows 7 but I keep getting the same message. I can install winxp on this machine (changing the bios from achi to ide) and also Linux, but it came out of the box with Windows 7 and I would like to put it back.
can anyone explain to me on how to do this on my netbook? i tried it so many times installing xp on this bullshit netbook but still i don't know why I'm having hal.dll error. Maybe if someone can show me step by step guide for installing windows 7.
We have an ASUS K52Jr purchased in April last year. At the start of this year the hard drive packed it in while I was trying to download something on ITunes and it would not start up again. We were moving and so didn't get around to taking it in for a couple of months. Anyway, a couple of weeks ago we went it in to ASUS and the hard drive was replaced under warranty (2-year warranty).The laptop is working fine now on AC power but the battery will not charge. I've tried shutting it down, taking the battery out, restarting it and putting the battery in while it's on, but no dice. I've also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the power management driver from "Device Manager". It was saying "plugged in, charging" on the battery icon but the "power bar" on the icon would stop moving within a few seconds of putting the battery back in and the power level would stay at 0%. Yesterday it started saying "plugged in, not charging".Is this because the battery was left in the laptop while it wasn't working? Is it just coincidental that the problem started after the hard drive was replaced?
I recently bought an acer aspire 5000 laptop on craigslist to replace my macbook that was stolen from the coffee shop... looked for another macbook but couldn't find any reasonably priced so decided to give windows 7 a try. it has windows 7 professional installed. 1.8 amd turion 64 processor and 2 gb ram. it needed a battery so i got a new one thru amazon. installed the new battery, charged it until indicator turned green. my question is is 2 2 hours and 10 minutes reasonable battery life or do i need to calibrate the battery monitor? new battery has been installed for almost 2 weeks. my macbook got almost 4 hours on a charge...
My acer aspire 5742 laptop won't turn on nor charge. When I plug it with the charger the light will not light up and no matter how much I press the start button it does not boot up.
I have an acer laptop and it has been working great for the past year but now my battery won't charge to 100%. This only happened recently and my laptop is plugged in for awhile but it'll only read to 80%, 2 weeks later; 53% and now its only 28%. The thing is.. my laptop IS charged. when i unplug it, I get my usually lifespan of the battery before i have to plug it in again to recharge and it only charges to x% again. I've tried "draining" my battery and letting it charge again but it won't charge to 100%. Is there anything I can do to make my laptop read my battery correctly again.
*I should add its an Acer Aspire with a 6-cell Li-ion battery and this is the only problem I've had thus far with my laptop
No it's not old, no it wasnt used more than 6 times and i dont keep it in the laptop all the time. I always leave the batter out of the laptop when it isnt being used. When it is out of the laptop it is fully charged. But as of recently it's been telling me that it only charges to 97%, the laptop is only 2 months old.
My laptop battery is almost dead. I had purchased it almost 2 years back and now it gives me a battery backup of just around 40 minutes. So most of the time I have to keep the charger connected. To be honest, I don't find it safe to connect the charger all the time as the battery may get further damaged due to over-charging.
My question is that is there any software which would stop my charger from charging the battery till say around 30% and when the battery drains to 30%, the charging resumes automatically. When completed (reaches 100%), it stops charging again (but the charger is still connected) and then waits for the battery to drain to 30% and restarts the process.
I have a asus 1201n eee pc it was working with no problems fast stable nothing wrong one day 3 weeks ago windows updates came out downloaded and installed ever since then a adapter plugged in says charging but isn't. Already replaced battery and charger. Us ut windows? Or the computer?
Start of with a topic what was published many times before, only not the same as in my situation. The crazy thing is, at every startup from Windows the battery icon runs the charge bar 5 times, and than it stops. At pointer it says: 0% available ( on main supply, battery is being charged) However, this does never change. Nomatter how long it charges. BatteryBar does the same thing:
Procent 0,0 % Capacity 0mWh of 43.568 mWh Battery unknown (charging) Charge 0 mW Full time 1:17 Main supply connected battery waist 18,2% of 53.280 mWh
Running Windows 7 Ultimate.When opening window it will fill the screen from top to bottom. The top is just fine, the bottom extends below the bottom of the screen and if there are buttons to click on you cannot see them.The only way I have been able to get around it is to change the screen resolution up to make everything smaller. This is ok but then circles turn into eggs, then it pops up screen is not set to optimal settings. It came with Windows 7 starter all I did was upgrade to Ultimate so that should not be an issue.
i have just bought an Acer Aspire laptop with Vista and i would like to install Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit, i put the dvd in drive and tried hitting f11 and f10 but it just carries on going to vista,does anyone know how i can boot from dvd please?

need help on my laptop (acer aspire 5050) details below Acer Aspire 5050-4570 (Turion 64 2.2GHz, 1GB RAM, 120GB HDD, Vista Home Premium) - Laptops - CNET Archive
I cant seem to find any drivers for my webcam and card reader, any suggestions?
Sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong place, but any pointers would be hugely appreciated! I'm running an ACER Aspire 5920G laptop, which comes with Vista 32-bit installed. I'd really like to give the Windows 7 RC candidate a try, but don't want to screw anything up!
I'm going to add a new partition so I can dual-boot the existing OS with the new one, but my major concerns come from ensuring the hardware works acceptably. The graphics chipset in the 5920G is a Radeon 3470 HD Mobility, and I keep it up to date under Vista using the Mobility Modifier software. Will the same modified drivers work fine with Windows 7 RC? (I'm hoping that there might be someone on this board who's been in a similar position).
Also (and this isn't quite on the topic of drivers), the laptop has 4gb of RAM installed - is it worth using a 64-bit version of Windows 7 RC, or does that complicate matters unnecessarily?
I bought an Acer Aspire 5530 (os-w7) from online. All were working great during the initial set up. But when i turned it off and then turned it on on the next day i received this message saying start up repair (recommended) and the other one is start windows normally.
So what i did was i chose start up repair and it took so long before windows showed up. The windows just showed up, nothing happened, it freeze. I tried it many times but same result. Can you tell me what is the problem of my laptop?

My acer extensa 4230-2818 won't hold a charge. I can only operate when plugged into the outlet. I would hate to purchase a new battery ($40) if it's may be something else.
I am having an insane amount of trouble with my Acer Aspire laptop that was working correctly until all the sudden the wireless went out stating that there is 'no networking hardware'I'm not sure what could cause this but two new things happened the night it went out.1. I bought a wireless signal for my desktop (I read somewhere in the Windows help files that the signal could knock out others I think it's silly but who knows)2. I bought a new mouse, tried to install it only to find that numerous people could not find the hardware for it. It went from lit up with no hardware found, nonfunctional. To not lit up but the computer still tried to install the software, no good. I feel like this problem is mainly associated with a cheap mouse because I wasn't the only one who could not install it.Those are the only two new things to happen to this laptop in the 24 hour period it went from functioning to no wireless hardware what so ever. My router is 2 feet away. I have tried removing the battery and disconnecting it from the wall, have tried turning off the signal, then on again. I have also restored my computer twice, back to a time earlier in the day when it didn't do the most recent windows update.And nothing. I don't want to say the internal hardware somehow fried but something went wrong somewhere.What is some steps I can do to try to test or fix this problem? Because Windows 7 help doesn't even acknowledge that this could happen at all nor does it say there is anything wrong with any of the devices on the laptop.Some information about the laptop:Windows 7, Service Pack 1Acer Aspire 7551AMD Phenom II N970 Quad-Core processor 2.20Ghz4G of useable RAM64 bit OSWireless Adapter: Atheros AR5B97Please note that I have also tired to hardwire this computer to my router and it would still not register that it has an internet connection nor would windows detect there was any problem with this at all.EDIT:I downloaded the drivers from the Atheros website and put them on a USB drive from my desktop. Upon putting in the drive to the laptop I found NONE of the USB drives are working. What now?
Whenever I put the computer onto sleep mode and leave it for a bit, I come back and wake it from sleep (by pressing the mouse) and then fans turn on but then it turns off? I tried going into bios but cant find the power management settings. My laptop is a acer aspire 4740G, Windows 7 Home Premium
