Brand new Aspire XC - 603G (ACX - 603 G-UW31). Windows 7 will not install in Legacy Mode

Hello

I am trying to configure a newly purchased office of Acer (Aspire ACX - 603 G-UW31), who has installed Windows 8.1, for my mother who cannot grasp the steep learning curve of Windows 7 to Windows 8.

I have a licensed copy of Windows 7 x 64 on DVD, and even after the SecureBoot mode off then launch MSC forever and then starting with F12, by selecting the DVD drive as a boot device, Windows will not install correctly.

The very first steps of the configuration are very well, it is, I'm asking the press actually starts to any key to boot from the DVD, Windows Setup loads some files, but the problem comes when the installation of Windows. I get a STOP error to the ASF with the message "The BIOS in this system is not fully complaint ACPI." There is no BIOS update for this model. That's the traditional way...

Any ideas?

Thank you, Nick

All,

I would like to announce, we have released an update of the BIOS that supports the element of 'Throw the CSM' in the BIOS Setup menu. Please visit http://www.acer.com/worldwide/ -> select your region-> click Support-> drivers and manuals-> select your product and then download the version of BIOS released on 15/09/2014 (or later version).

Please be aware due to material limitations when MCS-mode you may experience some audio issues HDMI.

  • Windows Vista will not install new updates after installing SP2

    Hi, I have a problem with the update of my windows. It started after a fact a factory reset. Here's the history:

    I have a some what old laptop (8 years). It came with a Vista installed with service pack 1 installed at the factory. Over the years, I did a few factory resets (every 2-3 years). I never had problems up to now. What is happening now is that I can not exceed SP2. I tried two different ways, none of them worked. After the reset, I first uninstall a bunch of stupid programs that came with the laptop, and then defragment and then have two ways to proceed. I tried to use windows update, installed more than 100 updates, updates install held until finally I offered service Pack2, installed successfully but then no more updates were offered. Then I tried a different approach - a new reset, uninstall, Defrag, and then downloaded and installed SP2 directly from the Download Center. And again the same thing happens. From the SP2 installation I check updates, download the new update agent and nothing happens after that. He keeps looking for new updates all day (about 50% of the processor by using all the time).

    I read some articles and discussions but could not find anyone with the same problem (most of the users reported some error codes which is something I can't do). I tried the fix tool - it does nothing! Whenever I run it, it is mistakes - sometimes 2, sometimes up to 5. Sometimes, it makes account all fixed, other times that it reports missing or corrupt files do not set. Whatever the results if I restart and when I try to check for updates again it is still the same story.

    Also I tried to install it manually IE9 as soon as SP2 is installed (I understand that this is not supported under SP1) but the installation fails. I expected to be available in updates, but as I don't get updates I tried to install it myself. Not sure if it's related (although I guess it is), but the Defender is not able to verify new definitions either.

    Any suggestions? Maybe the registry is damaged or some of the files using the update agent is are corrupt? There are currently no antivirus program installed that could block whatever it is. I haven't touched Windows Firewall somehow everything must therefore be attributed to the default values.

    You understand is that? I came across exactly the same problem... restoration of an old book to give to a family member, and every time I came to the point of installing SP2 and a more recent windows update agent just after, I couldn't install more updates. It would block 'check updates' forever. Tried twice, same problem. However, I tried some things differently the third time and exceeded the question.

    Let me know if you still need help, and I will respond with what I've done.

    If you follow the manual steps to start the computer in a clean boot state, remember to start the computer in normal mode after you have completed troubleshooting.

    Note: when you are finished troubleshooting, follow step 7, mentioned in the article to start the computer to a normal startup.

  • New update for Win 7 32 - bit XP - Windows Update will not, so have to do manual updates - that need me?

    I updated from XP to 7 Edition Home Premium in mid-March and have tried since then to run Windows Update, but I get the ubiquitous endless "check updates". I spent hours trying all of the fixes I could find (and understand) with no luck. So I decided to just manually download at least the critical updates, but I have no idea of what updates I need. I have Service Pack 1 and my system is 32-bit. I have 13 updates installed that I downloaded and installed in March because they seemed like it might be useful (I don't remember what most of them were for the moment), but I stopped here because I really didn't know what I was doing, or what I needed and I went back to try to fix Windows Update , but I gave that up. So, does anyone have a list of updates I should keep Windows 7 works correctly? Or should I say to hell with it and download Windows 10? I know my time is short if this is my best option. Any thoughts, advice, ideas, help welcome.

    It is not too hard to do. The value of the automatic updates to "never check updates" and then restart Windows. Download and install KB3020369 and KB3161608.

  • HP Pavilion 550-055na: new disk will not install the new operating system

    Hello

    I bought a new HP Pavilion 550 - 055na with Windows 8 a month or two ago but want to use Windows 7. However, I decided that I will keep the hard, the PC came with, and have the option of Windows 8 in future if I want. So, I'm installing Windows 7 on a new hard drive.

    My problem is that the new copy of Windows 7 will not install on my new hard drive.  I get:

    Violation of secure boot

    Invalid signature detected. See the policy in the configuration of secure boot

    Then me to a black screen after I pressed Enter/Ok, who said the following.

    Check the presence of the media...

    Media present...

    On IPv4 PXE boot.

    If I press F12 on power on, I get a blue box asking me to select a boot device. The only options are:

    Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller IPv4

    Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller IPv6

    and the output by using the arrow keys

    How to change the secure boot strategy?  If I do, it means that I can install my 7 can I on my new hard drive? Also, providing that I do, I always will be able to use my Windows 8 OS drive after changing the secure boot strategy?

    Any help would be appreciated to greately.

  • Windows Vista drivers not install ALL or update of new pilots

    About two weeks ago, I had a problem with my computer marketing and don't not loading Windows. He gave me the option to start Windows normally or repair of launch Windows. I tried to run normally and windows still only would be not loaded correctly, so the next time the computer is started, I launched the Windows repair instead.

    Later, I tried to save my Blackberry smartphone on my Blackberry Desktop Software program (which has been on my computer since I bought it 01/05/2009. But it does not recognize the hardware. So I plugged back it it and it began to automatically search for the driver (Driver Installation Program). It says install software device driver and he's looking for preconfigured driver folders. Of waiting for the user to input and gives me the choice: 1) locate and install driver software (recommended) (2) Ask me 3 again later.) Do not show this message for this device.  I choose option 1 and it gives a message, DEVICE DRIVER installation of MICROSOFT WINDOWS SOFTWARE and I support on continue. It gives the message: SEARCHING WINDOWS UPDATE, WINDOWS UPDATE DOWNLOADING, INSTALLING the DRIVER SOFTWARE. Then a message saying: Windows encountered a problem installing the software driver for your device. Windows found driver software for your device, but it has encountered an error trying to install it. He also says: the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

    Now, I didn't know what was wrong, so I tried to ask for help with material assistance and Paretologic PC Health Advisor and they are quite a few outdated drivers and asked if I wanted that they find new updated drivers, I agree.  And he again... the SAME EXACT PROCESS I HAVE INDICATED above. It will not install the drivers again and it will not install updates for all drivers more.
