Acer Aspire M1201
I have this desktop computer (M1201-BE5000A). I get an error on startup stating: WARNING! The chassis has been opened press F1 to continue press DELETE to enter setup menu. This has happened after I replaced the motherboard battery because the Date time & would return to 2008 when the power was cut. I have replace the battery has not fixed the problem. It was a CR 2032 battery. The computer works well when I hit F1. The Bios is American Megatrends. AMIBIOS (C) 2008. The OS is Windows 7. The above error prevents an Auto Reboot as you enter F1 or del to continue. Someone at - he seen or know a solution to this problem?
Thank you!
When I reflashed the bios to the latest download (with great difficulty because the Readme did not return for windows 7) it cured the problem.

Anyone know the brand and model of the motherboard installed in the desktop Acer Aspire M1201?
Thanks for your help, but I was unable to find the part numbers you have listed, but I found a code label long bar with the following text printed on it:
"04VD83611339 PC RS740M03A1-8EKRS2H.
The complete label not found search results, but "RS740M03A1-8EKRS2H" found the manufacturer 'Foxconn' all that I have need now is to find a specification for the motherboard.

Acer aspire m1201 black screen
When I start windows movies from my computer to a black screen, Ive tried the system restore, install drivers missing and non-functional. McAfee is all this so far with no problems detected. I can get on the computer by pressing f8, then go to low resolution screen and mode without failure, but not normally. It worked for a bit of roll back to a previous display adapter driver, but eventually it stopped working. I can't find anything wrong with it and uninstalled programs that we no longer use. The computer worked fine until we turned on after a weekend away! In addition, it is just out of its warranty. I went to back to factory settings, but did not get a disk of vista with it as it came pre-installed. Help!
How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.
There is no Vista free download legal available.
Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.
Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.
See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.
Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup, Acer should be Alt + F10 to start the recovery process...
Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s of the recovery Partition of hard disk or system failure crash when you're facing up and running again.
They will tell you how to do this.
Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.
If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):
Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.
At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

I got an Acer Aspire One 110 with Linpus Linux lite. Nobody has updated, so the browser to this topic is Firefox 2.0.0.14, which is a major concern for safety.
The latest version of linux that works properly (as shown) is Firefox 7.0.1. Some people have reported problems from Firefox 8 in Linpus Lite.
So I need to find a link where I can download this version of Firefox, in Finnish (apparently lang = fi - FI) because Mozilla has removed his breaks like a stale version.
However, as it is the most recent version to work properly under Linpus Linux Lite (and also in view of the features of the Acer Aspire One 110), I could really use a download link for this version of Firefox, 7.0.1 in Finnish language.
You can download it here

Acer Aspire One D270 does not turn on!
Have an Acer Aspire One D270. I've had for about 4-5 months now. Today it suddenly has stopped and it won't turn on. I left for a few hours but nothing yet. I thought it was a battery problem but the charging light does not turn. I know for sure, it is not the charger. Please help me! Thanks in advance!
[Moved from comments]
Nevermind found the solution... Follow the steps below. (Please be careful when you handle the electrical components of the computer such as batteries and power adapters)
- Remove the battery and hold the power for a few seconds (drain any remaining power)
- Turning on the computer without the battery with the AC adapter is plugged in.
- Wait a few seconds and then reconnect the battery
After a few tries the computer should start normally supported. The amber battery stops flashing and turns green when fully charged.
