• I have an Acer Aspire One Netbook. (No DVD player). From the start on the hard drive, I get a black screen with a blinking cursor.

  I have an Acer Aspire One Netbook.  (No DVD player).  From the start on the hard drive, I get a black screen with a blinking cursor.  The cursor does not type.  For me, maybe I need to reinstall windows 7 and startup tasks are corrupt.  I have my product key genuine for the computer, but no way to get to windows.  How to restore windows on a netbook that won't start?

  original title: Netbook Windows 7 problem

  New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

  If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling.

  Borrow a 32 bit Genuine Windows 7 friends DVD disc if you know someone who has one.

  Make an image of the DVD, you can use a program like ISO Recorder to do.

• what caused the sound to stop working on my acer aspire one netbook?

  I don't know what happened, I have no sound, I do not think that the netbook knows there is a map of its installed longer.  I have not removed any material, and only updates have been thanks to the automatic Windows Update program.  Just noticed one day that he was no longer the volume button on the office and could not play any music I had. What should I do to fix this? Literally worked day and no sound at all. Any suggestions?

  Despite what certain MVP thinks, this problem occurs on the upgrade or update. Not to everyone, but every now and again.

  Simply to re-install the audio drivers that match your Netbook on the Acer site.

  See you soon,.

• Aspire One netbook Windows 7

  When I turned on my netbook today, I got a black screen and "Missing operating system" in the upper left corner. I used recently to prepare for a trip and the battery is not dead. The power light is on and nothing happens when I press it. When I plug in I hear a beep loud.

  Is that what I can do to recover the operating system?

  Thank you

  It is also possible that the bios battery may be a little low. This sometimes causes the chip for the bios to lose its settings to the drive hard if the main battery is also weak or weak on the charge. A simple solution is F2 at startup to enter the bios menu, again as you did with the error of missing BONE, and the chip automatically detects and reset its disk setting hard if the hard drive is OK. Leaving when registering, you will start normally.

  This might be a more likely scenario a matter of boot from the bios usually continuous order to find the boot order if it does not find the operating system on the first device in the boot order.

  This is why it is always advisable to avoid running your battery down too much, because this also will help you avoid the device startup problems caused by a low bios button cell or failed.

• 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.

• Built in mic on acer aspire one does not

  The microphone on my acer aspire one netbook does not work. I am running windows XP on the netbook and had this problem once before some time back, but can't remember what the person tech told me to uninstall that does the job all of a sudden again. I use also the audio if it helps Realtek HD. I tried several times to update the drivers and reinstall the software from the acer site, it does not work... any suggestions?

  Hello

  Thank you for your message.

  I see that you are facing problems with the built-in microphone.

  Let's not worry! I'm here to help.

  Quick questions:

  1. what exactly happens when you use the built-in microphone? You receive an error message?

  2. What is the status of the device in Device Manager?

  Check out this link to learn more about device manager:

  By using Device Manager

  http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/snap_dev_mgr.mspx?mfr=true

  Let's try the following and check:

• High temperature of Acer Aspire One 725

  Hello

  I just got my new Acer Aspire One 725 and it works very well - however, when I checked what temperatures at which it turns, I'm quite concerned.

  The inactive temprature is about ~ 60 degrees Celsius, and under load, he got to 87 degrees Celsius until I turned it off.

  I tried to disable all unnecessary applications, but which has not helped. The netbook is brand new.

  Ideas appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Fusha, I got this from a review on Notebookcheck:

  "However, under strong charge of treatment in our stress test, the netbook 11.6-inch become considerably warmer. We measured temperatures of 39.3oC (102.7oF) and 43.6oC (110.5oF) for the top and bottom of the base unit, respectively. The palmrest has never exceeded 32.0oC (89.6oF). Our stress test represents an extreme case, but it is nevertheless clear that the quiet cooling system has negative consequences in terms of heat retention when the netbook is under heavy loads of treatment. »

  However, you are much warmer than that. Turn off your computer and trigger a short sound of compressed air in the vent of output. When running, hold your fniger on the exit vent to make sure that the fan actually works. If this does not resolve your problem, a computer store can put a fan nine of your platform.
