Acer Aspire notebook, Windows 7, on notification of lock screen caps

I have a laptop Acer Aspire 5334, and since I got it, a gray box appears in the center of the screen when I press SHIFT CapsLock or NumLock which appears if it was on or off.

I searched other places with methods to turn it off but I can't find those who work or are specific to Acer.

You know the method which I could use to remove/enable disable or turn this feature off? It's really annoying.

    My Acer Aspire One / Windows XP Home Edition Version 2002 Service Pack 3, (laptop/netbook computer - no disk drive to insert a disk or anything like that,) only has 1 GB of memory/160 GB of storage and is far off in the ORIGINAL manner, he came, I need to start over from scratch and reload BitDefender 2011 top.  :(  I can't do it for me take MSN messenger/etc out of it, backups fail, etc..  Does anyone know WHAT to do if you can't insert "recovery disk" (no), and doing it this way?  Thank you!

    Do you know how to back up your data first? Once you do this, you can follow these instructions:

    http://support.Acer.com/acerpanam/desktop/0000/Acer/AspireE360/AspireE360faq40.shtml

    That being said, why do you do this? A clean install (or its equivalent) is rarely necessary.

    "When I start the laptop, 1 screen 2 times, beebs gives me the whats available in the computer, Press (F1) to resume, or (F2) of the installation.

    I wish that you mentioned the "beeps" in your original question.

    When you start a computer, you will receive a 'beep', which indicates that the motherboard has spent his own self (POST tests. Power on self test))

    'beeps' (plural) normally indicate a hardware problem.

    Read the Information on the links about different codes "beep":

  • Acer Aspire 5100 Windows 8.1 problems (64-bit)

    Hello Acer users,.

    my mother has an Acer Aspire 5100 and is happy with it so far. I installed an SSD hard drive and Windows 64-bit from 8.1 to it (fresh). Now, she is very happy that the machine is very fast. Allthough there are new problems that accompanies the installation and I'm not happy with them. They are as follows (all drivers related questions I guess, no driver in Windows update or on Acer site):

    1 - memory card reader does not work and does not appear in the Explorer. Device manager shows 3 x peripheral problem which are the memory card reader. Which brand is?

    2 - WIFI does not work (says network adapter), have not yet tried to download and install the drivers from the website of Atheros, will try this next time I visit him. Poster 1 x peripheral problem device manager which I guess is the WIFI because the machine can access internet through wired adapter.

    3 - display is fixed (cannot be changed) at a resolution of 1024 x 768 and it can do better, but can not be changed. Downloaded and installed Catalys control center, but this has changed a lot and I do not see anywhere to change the resolution from there. Only several screens etc.

    4 - adapter displays in the Device Manager to 200M and it should be Ati Radeon Xpress 1100?

    But other than these problems, Windows 64-bit of 8.1 works great and especially with the SSD is very fast. And can recommend to you all =)

    Well, if you can help me on this issue. I guess that Acer can not make drivers before they get the manufacturers driver.

  • Acer Aspire XC605 Windows 8 in article 8.1; Does not start correctly?

    Hey

    I mailed my Acer Aspire XC605 yesterday and started using it today. I downloaded a bunch of updates and rebooted the system, after which I decided to update to 8.1 by the store.

    I restarted my computer once again and now it won't start; I get the Acer logo with loading below points, then a black screen with just the mouse cursor (sometimes not even). I tried to go into safe mode but F8 (or other suggested commands) do not work - I think that this is due to the computer from starting too quickly so that it can detect the command?

    Is there something I could do to undo the changes or solve the problem (I don't even have disks or something to undo changes for and I don't know anyone with a Windows 8 Working Group) or should I have someone (Acer or a store TI) do a clean install of Windows 8 (or some IT magic on it)? As the computer came with Windows 8 I don't have the disk to install it.

    Hi Stellaluna

    You restart your PC, hold down ALT & continually tap F10 - this should take your PC using the eRecovery. He then will allow you to reinstall Windows 8 of your recovery partition.

    As soon as you're back up & running, burn your recovery discs - you'll need these if the hard drive do not ever!

    And keep out of Windows 8.1, (at least for now).  Microsoft has made some changes, which means that it is not compatible with all devices.

    I hope this helps!

  • Acer Aspire M3910 WIndows 10 update

    I have an Acer Aspire M3910 with Windows 7 and the Acer eRecovery Management functionality to restore the operating system to the factory settings.  With Windows 10 come out, I was considering upgrading to it but was worried that if I've updated, I could lose my backup eRecovery Management function.

    Question: If I switch to Windows 10, I'll lose my eRecovery Management and backup Windows 7 factory settings?  The last thing I want to do is upgrade to Windows 10, hate it and then not my partition eRecovery with the original configuration of Windows 7?

    Thank you...

    You can try to preserve it, only delete the partition of windows 7, but because windows 10 uses GPT instead of MBR, you will lose the function ALT + F10 to start recovery.

  • Acer Aspire XC600 - Windows XP

    I am looking for a new desktop computer, the Acer Aspire XC600 with the following specifications:

    Acer Aspire XC600 - SFF - 1 x Core i5 3330 / 3 GHz - RAM 4 GB - drive HARD 1 x 1 TB - DVD SuperMulti - Radeon HD 7470 - Gigabit LAN - 8 64-bit Windows

    Now, I would like to install Windows XP on this machine, but I need to know with certainty whether or not it will work correctly. I can find drivers Windows XP for the GPU, so it's not any problem. Hard drive and DVD drive no problems either. But I find anywhere what kind of motherboard is in this computer so I can't verify that they are all the XP drivers for it. Can someone tell me what mother/chipset card using this computer and have all the XP drivers available or not? Thank you.

    (WARNING: Yes, I know that Windows XP is almost an existing operating system, and I know that it is very old, poses serious risks of security etc etc "but I need to run XP for some reason).

    Simply, we money went for it and installed all the drivers hand. No problem it is, although it was a serious pain to get the AHCI driver. Took us a while to understand the chipset was a "Intel 6 series/C200". "Intel H61 Express" is simply too broad and impossible to find the right drivers for.

    Anyway, resolved.

  • ACER Aspire running windows 8

    I bought an acer aspire laptop a few months back.  When I first started itup for the first time, I had been on the internet for a little while when I got this pop up message mcaffey saying to make contact with them I had a terrible virus on my computer... his name was Adam.  I had that confidence that he was a client of mcaffey serve as a gentleman.  He asked to have remote access to my laptop. I gave it to him!  At this point, he has messed with my laptop remote for about ten minutes. At the time wherever it was finished, my laptop was in ruins and he asked me a hundred dollars and he'll fix it.  I told him that it was impossible that I could allow myself that I had just bought my laptop then it asked me for fifty dollars, when I again told him no he became angry and wished me good luck and hung up.  Since then, my acer has to sit in a corner unable to function without them constantly in my acer. the icons of them were there permanently.  I finally did a factory reset on it this morning, but I can not get my firewall set in place.  they really did a job on my acer!  can someone help me please?  I also don't have any software security on that now, either. also please everybody all be wary of the technicians named Adam and Mcaffey!

    Hello brother of Poison Ivy2.

    Yes I just explained this already if you have had a chance to read this thread.

    1. switch its BIOS settings (F9) and then save and exit (F10).

    2. Once you save and exit the BIOS, go back to the BIOS and activate the Start Menu

    3. go into your computer and RUFUS to create the installation media.  (follow the instructions I gave you in the previous messages)

    4. If the computer comes with Windows 8.1 w / Bing, this iso vanilla Windows 8.1 will not work, because it has a special touch of 'Bing' and Microsoft will not activate (Microsoft won't let you activate vanilla Windows 8.1).

    5. However, you can download the iso of Windows 10 and use RUFUS for UEFI install only.  Please read all my previous posts and links.

  • How to get the setting of audio equalizer - Acer Aspire 3970 - Windows 8

    Hello

    I have a set of Altec Lansing speakers hung on the sound board. Its a speaker setup nice for the money - but the sub has a higher than low normal output level and do not have a bass level button. In any case, after installing Windows 8 Pro I've only the standard options for enhancements such as bass boost and room correction etc. There is nothing for the taste of an equailizer everywhere are. Living in an apartment and not wanting to annoy people, I am eager to find some drivers who will give me an equalizer to play with. Neighbors of downstairs must hate me...

    Can anyone suggest how I could go about this? The only driver Acer offer here for Windows 8 are to do with TV tuners.

    If a program specifies win - 7, but not 8 (on your box of victory-8) all run from the table rather than the metro interface. I haven't had a problem of compatibility.
