Can/will someone tell me how to remove and replace the hard drive in an Acer Aspire 5100 notebook. Thanks!

I got this Acer Aspire 5000 laptop that broke so I sent it to acer and they said worked fine except that the dc jack is broken, and it would cost me 500 dollars for them to fix it. screw that. so for a few months, its been a really expensive paperweight because Acer killed the battery after...

Hi all, I have an Acer C51 (Athlon 64 Venice, NVidia GeForce 6100, yadda) purchased almost exactly a year ago. It has worked perfectly so far, but now my RAM is failed. It came with two 512MB DDR-400-CL3 modules, made by "Nanya" (a company I hadn't heard of). I'm trying to figure out if the...

Hi all, This is driving me crazy and I'd really appreciate some tips and help here. I bought my TM 8104 about two years ago in Singapore. Recently it started to act up with a power issue. It generally always connected to the plug and working ok. As soon as I start up a game the ePowerManagement...

Hi, I recently reformatted my laptop, including partitioning hard drives. Then I re-installed Windows XP, then I re-installed all drivers downloaded from the Acer website, and after that I installed Windows XP ServicePack 2. At the beginning Windows was unable to find a file called vxlibres.dll....

you can install the one you have by using the Device Manager and updating the driver for your LAN card. When it asks you if you have the disk, you should be able to locate and select the driver that you downloaded. I've done so but it doesnt work, and Windows can't find anything on the internet...

So Acer doesn't offer a wireless card driver? If not, you can install the one you have by using the Device Manager and updating the driver for your LAN card. When it asks you if you have the disk, you should be able to locate and select the driver that you downloaded. I'm not sure if this will...

Okay, the webcam problem is solved, Windows solved it itself by searching for the proper drivers/patches with the Hardware function in Configuration screen. I still have the wireless internet problem. Greets, Mathijs.

Hi, have an 8104WLMi and wondered if anyone had Vista's posh graphics system Aero running on it ? Vista upgrade advisor says it won't as it is not fast enough and not enough graphics, however my boxes copy of Visa suggests 128meg will do it (and I thought the ATI mobility x700 was supposed to...

Hi, I've been using an Acer Aspire 5000 notebook for about a year. During that while I have only occasionally used the DVD drive for writing DVDs. Just recently, I tried again and it failed twice in the middle of a burn. I am using Windows XPSP2 and Nero 7. The log file that Nero generates is...

I have a TM 8100 that is now 2 years old. It is mainly used with the battery in place but as a desktop unit. Anybody have any idea how long the battery will stay in good condition. My experience with Dell previously was that I had to expect battery failure at about 2 years. Is there a test for...

I'm not too smart with computers, but every once in a while my brand new Acer will freeze while on the net, in a game, or wherever. I can't do anything except turn off the comp. Ctr + Alt + Del doesnt work. I bought a new video card for gaming, and they had to put in a new power unit... I've...
