• Model of the Acer Aspire One AOD255 running Windows XP 32-bit

  Greetings. I recently bought this primarily as a trigger of the road (screen larger than phones), it is used for games facebook, email and Skype. It has worked well for the past 6 months. But now it started up... goes to the Windows XP screen, go to start windows, the home, and then on the desktop screen. It only shows the background image on the desktop and icons, buttons etc. After about two minutes, it flashes a blue screen with the STOP error: C0000145 (Application error), the application has not etc. I don't have a CDRom drive on it. There is only a USB flash drive. It has a sticker with the product key for Windows XP and I have a Windows XP CD to the desktop unit we have at home. Help! This is as far as I know on this little guy.

  instead of using the CDs, you tried to start by pressing ALT + F10 at startup?

  This will start the process of Acer erecovery.

  If this does not start, press F2 to enter the BIOS and check if the D2D option is enabled.

• Acer Aspire One D255 - upgrade memory - I was told I could be upgraded to 2GB. A DDR3 4 GB will work?

  Went to the store to pick up a 2 GB and they were all, but the sales guy gave me a 4 GB DDR3.  The Geeks were all busy, and I had no time to wait, so I brought home and decided to research.  I find nothing on a 4GB for this model.  No one knows if it will make a difference.  They are apparently the same size. Now, I have windows 10 on mine and have need of more memory.

  The 4GB will not work and neither will DDR3.

  Login as an administrator.

  Double-click Control Panel / Device Manager - Imaging - writing down of the brand and model of camera.
  on this subject and on the tab of the driver is version. Now, click on update drivers (who are unable to do anything as MS
  is far behind the pilots of certification). RIGHT click on the camera - UNINSTALL - REBOOT - it
  will update the driver stack.

  Now, go to the system manufacturer's website and download the latest driver for the camera and the other related camera
  software (if not more recent get the same).

  Download - SAVE - go to them and RIGHT CLICK - RUN AS ADMIN - reboot after each driver.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

• 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

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

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

  Quick questions:

• Windows 7 will not update on an Acer Aspire One 722

  Hello, I have an Acer Aspire One 722 - A0722 - 64-Bit - I used the laptop and installed Windows 10 on it and it came to a crawl.  I decided to reset the computer to factory settings.  He succeeded, however, I can not install the updates of Windows.  I am running Windows 7 Home Premium with Service Pack 1.

  I tried to install updates for the first time without success and tried all the solutions I could find online.  I searched through forum after forum and tried all of the solutions that I found and not luck.  I installed several downloads, as recommended by Microsoft and not solutions.  I had subsequently to error code 8008005 and 0x8024402C and 0x8024001e.  I tried again the solutions and nothing has worked.  Most of the downloads that I did from herre: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/windows.aspx

  I finally install CCleaner and updated to Explorer 11 I downloaded directly from the Microsoft Web site.  Who succeeded.  Nothing else has.

  So, I wiped out the computer again and reset to factory settings and am at square one.  I installed NOTHING else at this point expect try Windows updates.  All I get is the progress monitor to continue to operate.  It was 'running' and research updates for nearly 30 hours and nothing.  It still reads ' check for Updates ' and nothing else.

  Any help would be appreciated as I know what else to try.  This seems to be a common problem with no real solution at this moment that my search Google told me.

  Two screenshots are below.  Thank you for any help or advice.  At this point, the computer is basically unusable and it's very frustrating.  I spent hours and hours and hours and nothing.

  Thank you all and well be.    Brad

Once the back is operational, run the update you just downloaded (make sure do not connect to the internet until the update is complete.  Reset.  Now that you have made, you must update the update here is the link to the DLhttps://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/kb/949104. Now, when it comes to restart your PC and go to update and this time it should find updates, can still take a little time, but usually get fist couple in 10 to 15 minutes.

• Acer Aspire One will be not run Office Starter after having uninstalled windows 10

  I made a huge mistake and clicked on the link to get Windows 10.  After you have installed Windows 10, I realized that the Office Starter Edition on my Acer Aspire One is not compatible.  I started Windows 7 but now Office Starter will not work.  I try to fix but get a message that says I don't have an internet connection.  Yes!

  PC3 10600 or 1333 mhz

  _________________________________________________________________________________________________

  I just installed a 2 GB DDR3 PC10600 - 1333 mhz memory, a SSD (Kingston V300 120 GB SATA III, working speed SATA II system) and Windows 10. Even with no UEFI support, basic 15 sec task machine boots are really fast. Video or live streaming, there could be some lag but is a normal cause its low vintegrated GMA video.

  But some improve I can try now. I installed version of Windows is 64-bit. We know that 64 bit systems need at least 4 GB to run fluenty. So I'll install male and 32-bit W10 system more stable but that the CPU bottleneck.
