• Acer Aspire One D257-13450 fixed size window too big for the screen

  I have an Acer Aspire One D257-13450 running Windows 7 Starter Edition, and when I open some windows (e.g. Brother MFC 990CW control of scanning parameters), the window is too large to be completely displayed on the screen. The bottom of the window is hidden under the bottom edge of the physical screen.  The window can me moved around the screen as usual but I can't move it to the top of the screen enough to see the bottom of the window - this is where the selection of options for this window buttons. This particular window has only a close button in the upper right and not the usual buttons Minimse or restore down. I have connected a monitor external and also adjusted the screen resolution and nothing doesn't affect the ability to resize the window and get off at the buttons of options I need. I was able to guess the buttons under the edge of the screen by using the tab key to tab through all the options in this window, but it is not very satisfactory. Any suggestions please?

  Many netbooks with Starter have only a 1024 x 600 screen - if the program needs a minimum of 1024 x 768 it may not work or may not display all. But it wouldn't be because of the netbook, Windows.

• Reinstall Windows 7 Starter Acer Aspire One D257

  I have an Acer Aspire One D257. It has no built in DVD / Draw.  It came pre-installed with "windows 7 starter" I don't have a disc of recovery etc for this program. Last year I used widows any time upgrade to install "windows 7 Home premium upgrade," which has been installed via the internet by a Microsoft technician. Then I had the upgrade key sent to me by e-mail, what's left.  Later, I had problems with the computer and decided to windows 7 from re - stall. I visited the Microsoft site and downloaded the program on a USB Home premium windows 7 (32-bit).  I have this installed successfully in the D257 of Acer. But I was unable to activate with my key upgrade Windows 7 Home premium, for some reason any he does not accept it?  So now that I have a dilemma, I have a key that has cost about £76,00 for the upgrade that seems unnecessary.  Also, I am unable to revert to the original "windows 7 starter", as the system restore will allow me only to come back to a point in time that is after I installed windows 7 about 2 weeks ago. How can I fix this without having to buy another program again. P.S. I use an external DVD draw if I need. Can anyone help please.

  Original title: bobgoodman1706

  Hi thanks for the info. Unfortunately, the recovery was wiped out when I installed the new windows 7. However, I have now solved the problem by buying a new product key that has been a success so now have windows 7 home premium installed and fully active. Thanks to everyone who tried to help me.

• Windows 7 on Acer Aspire One D257 freezes constantly

  I recently bought an Acer Aspire One with Windows 7 Starter edition D257. It constantly freezes, random.

  Sometimes, after a minute after the start, sometimes up to 15 minutes later. I ran the program of recovery without success.

  Any ideas?

  Yo, I had the SAME PROBLEM, super frustrating. It was literally freezing every time you start in about one to five minutes >: () the solution I found, go to the Acer site and install the most recent driver chipset. Worked like a charm. Summer on the computer for 3 hours, no gel! :) - fingers crossed-

• Random freeze of the Acer Aspire One AO722

  Help, please. Our Netbook Acer Aspire One A0722 hangs freezes randomly. This happens anytime, even with programs that have apparently little CPU or memory use. Examples: Freecell, Firefox. Of course, this also happens with heavier programs like the Rosetta Stone. It will happen several times a day with only recovery being hold switch down and kill & reboot... with the estimated loss of the current file entry (homework, documents, web page)

• Need a link to DL Firefox 7.0.1 for linux, lang fi - FI (Finnish), to install on Acer Aspire one notebook with linpus linux.

  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

• WINDOWS 7 STARTER/ACER ASPIRE ONE UPDATE HELP

  I have a brand new Acer Aspire One Netbook.  It is brand new, so after I did the initial installation for the new netbook, Windows 7 is an update.  When the update is complete, it blocks my netbook.  I get a black screen and a cursor only.  The only way I can fix it is to restore back to the factory and start all over again.  Anyone know why this is happening or that updates 62 is the cause? I basically can't update my OS until it is fixed or know where it is and it can check the updated list.

  You say you have 62 updates. The only true way to know what update is the cause of the problem is by installing one at a time.

  I was looking especially the optional updates as shows drivers etc. If you are offered drivers, you should consult the manufacturer's website to see if indeed you really need the updated drivers.

• Hi there I have an acer aspire one and I have a problem with my wireless connection.

  Hi there I have an acer aspire one and I have problems with my wireless connection.it is connected, but I can't use internet.any thoughts? Thank you

  A look at the "front" face, under the lip of the keyboard, similar to where a lock would be on a laptop. There is here a cursor that is not a lock, but it is a switch that activates / deactivates him wireless on and outside. Slide it on until it turns on the light above it (with the logo of the antenna), indicating wireless is turned on and drag it again to turn it off.
