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.
It seems that when i want to paste a file to my usb, it says "the disk is write protected". but when I used the USB to another computer, i can paste files. . . I don't know why such thing happens, is it because I have to adjust a setting or something in my system that will allow me to copy files from my laptop to my usb?

I just uprated my Acer TravelMate 4060 laptop with Windows 7 x86 Ultimate. I found all the missing drivers besides Graphic driver. (Graphic chipset is Intel 915GM Express). and wherever I check, I couldn't find anything useful. As I understand there is no driver for Windows 7 out there that would suppose Aero. For now it is working on it's generic driver. So I was thinking that meybey there is a way to tweak it somehow.
I just bought a new acer travelmate 5760-2434G64M laptop with windows 7 ultimate x64.Everything is perfect except the control panel harware and device doesnot show fingerprint device. also the Bio-protection software cannot detect the device.Device manager shows driver for Secure biometrics devices (EgisTec ES603).It shows the driver is up to date and working properly.I have tried installing the driver form the DVD provided and also from Acer website.

I got an acer travelmate 6465WLMi running 64-bit Windows 7 and after some digging around I managed to get the smartcard and 4 in 1 cardreader to work with drivers from a different travelmate. Only problem I have now is that I can't find any 64-bit drivers for the fingerprint sensor. When I went to check the first time device manager showed it as an SMSC fingerprint sensor but checking their site didn't assist at all, any working driver? ([URL] didn't work although one site mentioned they're used in acer laptops...
I just got a new laptop, Acer 1410 and have gotten my Windows 7 upgrade disk (just did a standard install). I really desire for this thing to be as bare bones as possible without one bit of the preloaded junk on it. I am gathering this is one reason why people do what I see from this website is called a clean install?
I know the basics and catch on to technology well but I am no regular computer wiz, so is this something I should attempt? Will the laptop function fully? Anyting this dummy should know?
I'm re-installing Windows 7 on an Acer Laptop. This is not my laptop but a friend of my friend's laptop. The Windows 7 installed on the PC is a cracked version namely Windows 7 Eternity. It was installed by some other guy I don't know. The usb port are not functioning but are working. I plugged in my flashdrive and there is no sign of life but when I enter the bios it shows the flashdrive meaning that it works fine but when Window boots up it shows no life. Indicating a problem with Windows. I've tried everything to fix the ports but the last option is to re-install the OS.
He has giving me a disc with Windows Eternity which the guy give him to install but I'm going to install the OEM instead of this cracked pirate copy. To check if the OEM partition is still intact I've installed the cracked copy and used Diskpart.The OEM partition is still there. I've used the disc to format the drive and then rebooted pressed ALT & tapped the F10 key but I don't get the options to re-install OS. What do I do now? other than just installing the cracked copy. I'm guessing when the ot
I have a problem installing Windows 7. I have Acer Aspire 6920 with Windows Vista. I've tried to update Vista to 7 or just format the the whole drive and install a fresh copy but same problem. Everything from the installation is perfect but after this just before the start window to load i get this screen Imageshack - acer . It says that i need recovery and i only can click Exit. If i put my Acer Recover CD, it automatic installs Vista. I am so pissed off. I can't believe i can only run Vista on this Acer ?
i boot my pc ang install a new windows lyk xp or vista if the cd reads after a sec, the pc said error if you 1st tym 2 see this message boot or unstall some application or have a virus ect.
I have an acer veriton 1000 and am trying to do a clean install with windows 7. I have a bootable disc and everytime i try and start it it comes up with "Boot from CD :" then under it appears "BOOTMGR is missing" yet i get the same disc and put in my laptop and it starts the boot up process fine.
I have an Acer Aspire One A0751H that's been running Windows XP on a HDD. I've replaced that drive with a 120GB Sandisk SSD and I'm trying to install Windows 7 from an external DVD. I select the custom install path and select the single unallocated partition for installation. It works fine up to the point where it says "Copying Windows files (0%)..." where it hangs. No progress, cursor freezes, no response. The only other change I've made to the machine is to upgrade the RAM to 2GB of Corsair.I've disabled all other boot devices in bios (no floppy drive)
I am attempting a clean install of windows home premium 64bit, with not much success.The laptop is an Acer Aspire 5553 with Toshiba MK3265GSX 320gb HDD.I have the product key and downloaded an .iso image from digital river, burned to disc and changed BIOS to boot from cd/dvd drive.I also wiped clean hard drive (with DNAB) and deleted all partitions which the OS was stored on using diskpart (I may re-partition the hard drive at a later date) and I've subsequently booted install disc.After default language and and install screens appear I receive message stating cd/dvd drivers missing.I've now started Startup repair which has been attempting repairs for over 15 mins now. Perhaps I shouldn't have run that but I was curious to see if there was any problems detected.I have now powered down laptop as I suspect that it had frozen. After reboot, it has now froze on second 'windows is loading files...' screen and disc drive is constantly whirring.I know from the microsoft website that the drivers for the Toshiba MK3265GSX are included on installation disc, so why is it stating that driver's are missing? I have the option of loading drivers from the installation disc, but I wouldn't have thought I had to do that?
I have a Acer Aspire one D257 with no windows operating system installed. I get a 17 error" when I turn it on. I do not know what to do to fix it, or how to reinstall Windows 7 on it.

I just bought captioned lappy off ebay without OS. I want to install Win XP. It has no dvd drive and I don't have an external drive. I have Win XP pro on a cd, and 7 ultimate on a dvd and as well as it's image in my toshiba laptop. I actually intend to follow the instructions to dual boot but my question is how do i install the first OS on a netbook with no optical drive? Also I don't know if it has a restore from partition, I will check when I get home tonight, but I don't think so.
