Tablets :: Acer Iconia W700 - How To Disable Narrator
Jul 7, 2014
On my Acer Iconia W700(I5 Core)I have a problem my volume button is not putting the volume up or down anymore.
When i press the volume button it goes to narrator settings and there's a lady who is speaking (guiding me). but i don't how to get the volume button back to normal before the Windows 8.1 update.
Well i have tried getting rid of it in the control settings(BIOS)but it keeps coming back and it is really annoying!
I just want to DISABLE Narrator on my Acer Iconia W7000 for Good!
I have a Acer Iconia W700 i5 core and when i charge my battery till it is charged(100%) after i unplug the charger it goes to 81% and i don't why it says 81% when i fully charge the battery.
And when i plug or unplug the charger out of the tablet it makes a beep noise.
The battery is on balance plan/setting most of the time as well.
But i have 1 problem that i am trying build a Tablet News website on Weebly and when i drag and drop text or other element in the website it is good but when i touch on the text it goes straight to the text editor instead of the bar where you can delete or move and copy the text element and i can't do it because i want to delete the text element and it is getting annoying and it happens with most elements as well.
I tried using it with my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7 pen to get to the bar of the element to delete/copy/move the element but it is the same.
Is there a mouse method on the Acer Iconia W700 because i think that would be better selecting without going to the text editor like the text element and goes to the bar(move/delete) elements in my website.
Weebly.com is a drap and drop website builder that is very easy to use.
I use (Windows logo key* + Enter) to toggle between full/window in a game I play. Today when I used that shortcut it turned on the narrator. How can I disable that annoying narrator for good.
I want to install a multi-boot W 8 / android and I've already boot on "android-x 86-4.2-20121225" (without install) with my W 700 but the wi-fi is not recognized. how to find a version of android who recognized the wi-fi card of W 700?
I have an Acer Iconia W510 PC Tablet and I am talking about this error right here. [URL] ....
Okay, so this started appearing and I got a little worried. Each time it happens, I go through a restart and am just fine. So, I started to think about why it appeared. Then it happened more often. I'd say it pops up for no apparent reason every couple days, sometimes more frequent.
Every day, I do the following:
- Run Disk Cleanup - Run Defrag - Do a Manual Full System Scan with Norton Antivirus
I do all of these things and try to never download shady files, but it happens all the time. Sometimes it will be when I'm talking to someone on Skype (Text, not Video), or in an app like One Note or OK Cupid Touch.
It happens so frequently that I feel like there is something I'm missing.
I was given an Acer W510 that came with no recovery media (the original disks or a micro USB flash recovery)
It also does not have the keyboard dock with it. I am stumped as to how I might reset this tablet. How to make a USB recovery drive, that might work but they would have to have the same tablet, right?
Recently, I have a hybrid laptop (Lenovo Yoga 2 13). It recognizes my different laptop positions, so the keyboard is disabled when I rotate the screen.
But when I use it in laptop mode (using regular keyboard to type), I still get the touch keyboard on screen when I touch the screen on a writing field. How can I disable the touch keyboard if I use the tablet in laptop mode?
I currently own an ASUS laptop. I wanted to know if it's possible to disable the bottom portion of the touchpad (the click/right-click only). The touchpad is pretty hard to function at the moment.
How to disable the edge gestures, touchpad only, for all users on Windows 8.1. Here's the scenario:
The laptops are touchscreen. You use the touchpad to move the cursor around and the Edge gesture is triggered (charms, recent apps etc)....
There are hundreds Windows 8.1 laptops that will be put into production soon. The master image has already been created and installed on all of the laptops by the manufacturer.
Each laptop will be used by several different users for testing, so disabling the gestures per computer per user/profile would be quite difficult.
I have a problem on my laptop running Windows 8: I can't disable TouchPad Edge Swipes, so everytime i accidentally swipe on my TouchPad, Charms Bar pops up. I've disabled it using Start8 start menu, but the program cannot prevent it from popping up when using the TouchPad. I've also read Brink's tutorial (How to enable or disable touchpad edge swipes on Windows 8), but the problem is i don't have an 'Enable Edge Swipes' button on the driver's settings window (i think it's because i have a different laptop).
My laptop model is Sony Vaio VPCSE1E1E. I have installed the latest TouchPad driver from VAIO Support's website.
I'd like to use text to speech for when my eyes get tired.
Is there any way to use text to speech without narrator? When I turn it on it's incredibly annoying and slows down navigation.
I just want to be able to select text and/or pages and have them read, but ONLY text that I'm selecting. I don't want every single thing I click on to be read off to me.
Tips on using narrator with Windows 8 ? It talks, but i can't get it to read what i want read! Very frustrating. I start it up it says some things on the page it's on (somewhere, but i don't know where) and then clams up, not another word. It reads it's own instructions really well, but that's about it.
Long ago when using 7 early on I botched up trying to remove an Acer OEM partition to no avail only to be left missing roughly 65GBs of my hard drive and not being able to see the partition. Luckily I didn't destroy the HD!
I found a nice little free utility that Brink introduced here: Partition - Recover Deleted Partitions in Windows that I ran and it was able to see the partition. Not only that partition, but a bunch of smaller ones. I couldn't believe my eyes when I came to look at this after it was finished scanning!
Below is the results of the scan. The first one listed (no label) is my Windows 8 Pro partition. The one labled 8.1 is obviosly my 8.1 RP that I dual boot. The one with the checkmark with no label I'm guessing is the Acer partition. As you can see Windows Disk Management does not see any other partitions other than 8 and 8.1.
If at all possible, what do I need to do to correct this? I'd like not to touch my 8 partition because of Office, but I will if I need to. 8.1 is just a preview. What are all those smaller ones? What does overlapped mean?
I purchased an ACER ASPIRE V5-571P and have had nothing but issues with windows 8. I have restored the computer once using acer recovery media but there are still partitions from previous install and i have no access to the original factory recovery partition either. Id like to know how to fully reformat the entire disk and restore the recovery media back to 8.0 with the correct manufacturer drivers and then reinstall my purchased 8.0 pro upgrade without losing my drivers from acer... lastly then continue to and upgrade to the 8.1 Pro finally. As of now when i upgraded to 8.0 pro it deleted all my OEM ACER drivers and factory programs and now windows has replaced with best effort drivers and i dont know what drives should be there and what are incorrect at this point.
I have a Acer Aspire E1 570 laptop that I use for college, the laptop is less then 8 months old. For some reason recently it starting going dead at 40% battery charge remaining. I ran a powercfg -energy from the command prompt and it said that my batterys designed charge is 37000 and last full charge untill the battery read it was fully charged is 36526. I use the laptop on the battery all the time while i'm at school. I was thinking maybe just refresh the PC from the recovery i made using the provided software with the computer. I'm unsure if that would correct the issue.
I have an Acer V5-122P-0681 that I got in July. Worked beautifully for a few months. But now it gives me script errors(especially if I am on Google) and will freeze, then flash my desktop background. I have 416GB free of 453 Gb. All updates are current...I have Avast installed and it has not found any virus.
But when i try to install Windows 8, it just doesnt install.it gives me following error :
I Tried everything.i performed a Clean install {deleted all partitions & installed on a new partition}
I even used ACER just UPGRADE ASSISTANT.The OS doesnt install. i tried freaking 15 times just trying to install that OS but still it just doesn't install.
I am currently typing on a Acer Aspire 6935. It originally came with Windows Vista Home Premium and then I bought a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate. It took me a while and when I say a while, I mean about 10 weeks to find ALL of my correct drivers and this laptop is special because it has some fantastic speakers. So finding the right driver for the speakers was a pain in the... Without the drivers, my sound horrible. I want to upgrade to Windows 8 because I like the new interface and I like Windows 8.1 Update 1, however, my drivers are a problem. I found the correct drivers but I forgot where I downloaded it from. What can I do? If I upgrade to Windows 8, will it keep my drivers?
i've just bought a new laptop Acer E1-531 without OS and i've installed windows 8 64-bit on UEFI system but i recieved a BSOD with the error code IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL my BIOS version is 2.14, so how to install windows 8 on this laptop
As some program I use usually are not 100% compatible with Windows 8, I tried to format and put windows 7.
When I installed windows 7, the computer started to heat up and shut down too .. I was convinced that the problem was the BIOS. So I updated it from v2.04 to version 2.13.
I did not notice any difference and the computer continues to shut down. I had only to open a game for 30min.
I went back to change the BIOS to UEFI type and installed again windows 8.
With windows 8 computer already accelerates the fan and he does not turn off so many times.
As the UEFI BIOS type is recommended for windows 8, that have logic ...
However I still find that the computer does not work well. If I play something for 1hour, some times the computer shuts off and sometimes not.
The computer shuts down and after 2-3 seconds, it automatically turns on.
I think this is very strange ...
The fan speeds up a little, but she never arrives at full speed!
So I thought it was a problem in the version of BIOS and I have tried all the ways to replace the original version, v2.04.
Unfortunately, without success!
I no longer know what to do ...

Yesterday my laptop was until at night when I was editing some text file, it suddenly hang, (Not exactly because edit text file cause this error, just to clarify what I was doing) fine, then I was frustrated, so I shutdown my laptop and went to sleep. But today when I startup my laptop, after the logo, I encounter blackscreen, which stays on like that. So I force shutdown my laptop and then go into advance mode. I boot to safe mode and it seems to be fine, no freezing or hang or whatever it is. But if I want to boot normally the blackscreen would appear. And under Device Manager the Generic PnP Monitor have yellow !.
I have try to run sfc/ scannow and so on, which doesn't solve my problem. if I were to refresh the Windows, if there any way of not losing files?
