Question about refurbished Aspire V5-122P-0889

I have a refurbished Aspire V5-122P-0889 having only a 30 day warranty when I got it.  I received it via the eMachines class action floppy drive.  Everything good with the computer and it works fine.  In fact, I actually upgraded to a Samsung 840 250 GB SSD hard drive.  My question is this: I would like to know what it was about this computer that required it to be refurbished.  It was a problem and if so, what is the problem, or if it was sent just return within a time limit because someone did not like it.  As I said, it works beautifully.  I have no complaints, and with the SSD, it is much more dynamic.  I'm just curious to know what it was.  Anyone have an idea how I could find this information without having to buy a contract of service or pay a fee to speak to someone?  Thanks in advance.

I can answer this for you at a high level and I think that is the best answer we can provide on the subject. No information is available as to why a specific unit has been returned and then refurbished. I am sure that Acer internal teams keep data and improve and reduce the performance of the products, but it is not information that I have provided or information that would be shared publicly.

A renovated occurs every time that the device is open, it could be a demo, a loan for revision or a return to a retailer for some reason any.

I hope this helps. I have a Samsung 840 Pro coming today for a my new gaming platform, can't wait to get charge up

  • Question about the Aspire V5-122P-0889 recovery partition...

    My recovery partition is 14.82 GB in size, but it has only 95,21 MB of space used.  I upgraded to 8.1 Windows through shop Windows, but I highly doubt that it would be wiped out the info in the partition.  In addition, this computer is a computer refurbished plant.  When I got it it had a warranty of 30 days on this subject.  I had because I've included in the eMacines floppy drive class.  It does not matter if, as a computer Factory reconditioned, refurbished by Acer, should have the info in the recovery partition, shouldn't it?  I am at a loss.  I would use the recovery option to reinstall Windows 8 I don't like Windows 8.1, but now I see my only option is to buy the Acer USB recovery, and it comes to $43.  It's not just sit well with me.  Any ideas?  It is refurbished at the factory does not mean it must be defective.

    I have a System Image backup when he was still just Windows 8, but cannot me use because it says that I can't use a system image of Windows 8 to restore a computer that has Windows 8.1 on it currently.

    I know that I can download a Windows 8 ISO, but only with a product key valid OEM product key is not going to work.  Besides, who knows what the product key is anyway, as it is stored in the BIOS.  Once again, any ideas?  Thanks in advance.

    Well, after doing a little research, it turns out that one of the features of Windows 8.1 upgrade wonderful is that this makes it unusable to your recovery partition.  I guess this teaches you this in the FAQ on Windows 8 upgrade to 8.1.  The only option would have been to make a USB recovery before doing the upgrade, but of course, I did that.  As I said, I have an image of Windows 8 of this machine system, but it is useless for me.  Of course, my only option is to go there and order USB Acer recovery, then after you have reinstalled Windows 8, uses the saved system image so I can get all my programs without having to re-download everything.  Well, $44.95 and some headaches because I didn't read the FAQ and think to make a backup of the appropriate USB recovery.  Maybe this lesson will help someone in the future.  Such is life.

  • RAM upgrade for aspire v5-122p-0889

    I have an Acer Aspire V5-122P-0889 ultra-thin netbook. It came from the factory with 4 GB of ram DDR3, 204 pins. I can't find information on upgrading the ram. I need to know how much ram is expandable and MHz of SO-DIMM memory modules to get. Does anyone know this information?

    That's what I plan to do: revenge CORSAIR 4 GB 204 pin DDR3 SO-DIMM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) computer portable single bar.  It will work in this phone?


  • Memory in Aspire V5-122P-0889

    How is it that the laptop has 4 GB of memory, including 3526 MB usable, when there wasn't that one module of memory Kingston 2 GB installed?  The motherboard is equipped with a built-in 2 GB module, and everything you put in the single RAM slot is in addition to the built in memory?  My laptop is no longe under warranty, so when I installed an SSD I removed the module and he got the info from her.  It is a module of Kingston, model # ACR16D3LS1NGG / 2G, which is clearly a 2G module.  Same cpu - z indicates the module as being 2048 mb.  The kicker is that in cpu - z, on the memory tab, the size la taille shows only 3526 MB.  In the SPD tab, it shows only the 1 full size 2048 MB module slot.  Nothing in slot 2.  Belarc Advisor, it shows DIMM 0 as with 2048MB installed, with a serial number and 1 DIMM with 2048 MB installed, but no serial number.  The serial number for the DIMM 0 is for the module of Kingston.  Can anyone understand this?  As I said, it is that a single slot on the motherboard for a module and the module that it is 2 GB.  In all my other PCs in the past, the memory that is displayed is what you have installed.  But this laptop has a ghost somewhere 2 GB module.  I'm sure that there is a logical explanation for this, and I'm sure that the laptop was actually 4GB (usable 3.52), but where the other 2 GB coming if the module installed, and why is not Belarc shows a second module that is not physically there?  Thanks in advance.

    I'm not familiar with your machine, but I think there:

    A location that can be supported up to 4 GB.

    (There is another 2 GB of RAM (DDR3-1066) soldered to the motherboard. It cannot be changed).

  • Many questions about the HP 50 g

    I just ordered a HP 50 g graphic calculator! I have a few questions about this so hang on tight! What is the USB connector on the calculator? Mini-USB, micro USB, or is it a connector owner, "custom". Then, it would be possible to connect a keyboard to the HP 50 g by using the USB Port? Is there a program that would make this possible? (I doubt it would work if you plug it..) I have a Mini-USB to female USB 2.0 connector. So I could just plug the keyboard right, provided that the port on the calculator is a Mini-USB Port. If this is not so that I could use my female to female USB adaptor to connect the keyboard.

  • Question about warranty after exchanges of RAM on Satellite module series

    Hello together,

    I have a question about the warranty. My laptop is 5 months old and now I want to improve it with more RAM. I want to do it myself, and now I'm wondering if the warranty will be getting hurt.
    Thanks in advance for your answers.

    Concerning

    TiG3r

    For new models of laptops the RAM upgrade described in s operating manuals. It is public act and it shows the owner of the notebook how do RAM upgrade only.

    If Toshiba offers something like this he won't have the negative influence of valid warranty.
    Buy a compatible module and RAM upgrade.

    Bye and good luck!

    Hello

    I am about to order a Satellite P300 - 18 M and have just a few questions about this:

    (Although these may apply for other similar Satellite/Equium P300.)

    Is the touchpad made by / to use the Alps or Synaptics driver?

    It has the Wireless N network card, is the map made by Intel or Realtec?

    And also, someone has experience with face recognition software to connect?

    If so, does it take a lot of time to initalise?

    Thanks in advance,
    Jack

    Hello

    The P300 - 18M belongs to the PSPCCE series.
    It uses the two touchpad drivers. Synaptics & Alps Electric
    There is an Intel 802.11agn minicards WLan installed

    The face recognition is a nice tool but local to be illuminated and you must take your face the right of the post sometimes it of not very easy

    But if you face is recognized correctly that the connection should work properly

  • A few questions about the difference between the Satellite P70, L70, S70

    Hello, I have a lot of questions about the P70, L70, S70 series that come with a 1920 x 1080 panel.

    (1) what are the differences between the L70 and S70 series? With the exception of the RAM and HARD drive capacity, books seem pretty identical.

    (2) P70, L70, S70 doesn't support a 2nd HARD drive or it's just the P70 series that support?

    (3) all the three (P70, L70, S70 series) come with the same TFT panels?

    (4) of the above series, which supports mSata?

    (5) all the model of each series are delivered with support from mSata? For example, it could be that L70 - a - 13 m supports mSata is not the case of the L70-a-146?

    (6) all the foregoing, are delivered with a S - ATA II or III S - ATA interface?

    (7) who is the best of these series listed? I'm trying to understand what makes the big difference of S70 to P70 except for the envelope for example.

    Thank you in advance.

    > (1) what are the differences between the series L70 and S70? With the exception of the RAM and HARD drive capacity, books seem pretty identical.

    What models Sat L70 and S70 do you mean exactly? There are different L70-xxx-xxx and S70 models on the market that supports different hardware specifications.

    (> S70 2) P70, L70, support a 2nd drive HARD or is - it just the series P70 that support?
    As you can see in this [Sam P70 HDD replacement document, | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/CRU3903II0000R01.htm] the P70 series supports the 2nd drive Bay HARD, BUT even if there is a 2nd HARD drive Bay, this does not mean that you can use the 2nd HARD drive. In the case where the 2nd HARD drive Bay are equipped with HARD drive connector, you can use the 2nd HARD drive

    I also found the [Sam L70/S70 HDD replacement | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/CRU3703HG0000R01.htm] the document on the Toshiba page and there I see this 2nd HARD drive Bay is not available

    (> 3) all three (P70, L70, S70 series) come with the same TFT panels?
    See point 1). Different P70, L70, S70 models were equipped with different material parts.

    (> 4) of the series above, which takes in charge mSata?
    As far as I know that some P70 models are equipped with an mSATA SSD of 256 GB.

    (> 5) do all the model of each series are delivered with support mSata? For example, it could be that L70 - a - 13 m supports mSata is not the case of the L70-a-146?
    See point 4) not all models supports the same hardware specifications

    (> 6) all of the above, come with a S - ATA II or III S - ATA interface?
    I don t think that SATA III is supported. I guess it would be SATA II

    (> 7) which is the best of these series listed? I'm trying to understand what makes the big difference of S70 to P70 except for the envelope for example.
    Not easy to answer because there are too many models released in Europea.
    And not all models are available in each country. So I guess you will have to look for the models that have been released in your country.

  • Satellite L650-11R - a few questions about this

    Hello there :-)

    I have a few questions about my new L650.

    I've never had Toshiba notebook before so I apologize if some of these "quirks" are actually quite normal on this laptop. I really want to hear the views of other users L650.

    1)
    First of all, by the time I turned it on I saw gradient thin (1-2 mm) along the right edge of the screen that goes from the bottom up. Maybe "degraded" isn't the right word, but it seems that since two or three pixels are kind of discoloration or lose brightness/sharpness to the edge along the straight bezel. It is not really that visible, looks like the colors are desaturated a bit here or brightness is a bit lacking. He can be seen everywhere (bios or no color in Windows, but better in the lighter background).
    The left side (or other) seems ok, all this along the right edge is somewhat suspicious. If one can compare? I don't know if it's something to worry about or is just supposed to be like that.

    2)
    The other thing I noticed heating of the processor (Intel i3 330M) and GPU (ATi Mobility Radeon 5650). It's pretty hot here right now (I would say that the temperature is around 28 degrees Celsius when using cell phones). He is sitting on the hard surface (table) and nothing is blocking the vents.
    However, at "rest" (surf the web & regular light stuff), average CPU temp hovers around 58 ° C. It usually goes from 45 to 62 in just a few minutes after starting, and then I can hear and see (Toshiba PC Health Monitor) evacuate the kicks in. Temp goes back to 50 +, event stops and then the temp rises to 60 + until the vent is used again.
    During load full (Prime95 or some games), CPU is going all the way up to 75 degrees (the highest being 77). Fan runs at 75 to 77% during this time, never go faster.

    GPU idling is usually around 5 degrees above temp CPU (62-65). During full load (for example. Benchmark of Far Cry 2), I see a lot of stuttering with the latest drivers Catalyst and DX10 (not sure if the stuttering has something to do with heat), otherwise it is ok (no artifacts or anything like that). Temp of GPU during the loading goes up to 74-75, fan speed is locked at 30%, the frequency of the heart 5650 is 450 MHz. left side of the laptop (vent and below) is pretty hot, while the keyboard is warm (or slightly warmer who who).

    These time seems correct and safe in the long term? I'd rather events works all the time (they aren't really very strong) and keeping time less than 50, but there are just wishful pious bios control events and I can't control not the bios. :-)

    3)
    This is just General related products. :-)
    Official specifications of Toshiba L650 say ATi 5650 (between other low range GPU), but I saw a few specifications calling for there 5730 (same model 11R). Is there really a Satellite L650 with ATi 5730 GPU models?

    Sorry for the long post, I tried to include the best possible description that I could do. :-)

    Thank you in advance.

    Thanks for the additional info!

  • A few questions about the upgrade on Satellite A300-144

    Sorry for the typos, English is not my mother tongue.
    I want to ask some questions about the upgrade of a300-144.

    * Some info first.*

    CPU: T2370 ([http://ark.intel.com/products/34445/Intel-Pentium-Processor-T2370-1M-Cache-1_73-GHz-533-MHz-FSB]).
    Chipset: GM965 ([http://ark.intel.com/products/29821/Intel-82GM965-Graphics-and-Memory-Controller]).

    * Questions.*

    1. my frequency of laptop memory at 533 MHz, supports 667 MHz memory controller, memory modules can work at 667 MHz. Is - this because CPU FSB 533 MHz frequency and new processor at 667/800 MHz FSB will fix it or it is hardcoded in the BIOS?

    2 Intel said that the size of max memory for my chipset is 4 GB (2 x 2 GB), but Toshiba says that only 2 GB (2 x 1 GB), who is right?

    3 I know, taken of my CPU is μFCPGA-478 aka socket P, max FSB 800 MHz, max 35 W TDP, so T9500 ([http://ark.intel.com/products/33918/Intel-Core2-Duo-Processor-T9500-6M-Cache-2_60-GHz-800-MHz-FSB]) is a compatible processor or there are some limitations in the BIOS?

    > 1. My frequency of laptop memory at 533 MHz, supports 667 MHz memory controller, memory modules can work at 667 MHz. Is - this because CPU FSB 533 MHz frequency and new processor at 667/800 MHz FSB will fix it or it is hardcoded in the BIOS?

    The speed of the memory is related on the material. This means that the FSB is responsible for the limitation.
    If the FSB would allow support 667 MHz then the memory would also at this speed.

    > 2. Intel says that the size of max memory for my chipset is 4 GB (2 x 2 GB), but Toshiba says that only 2 GB (2 x 1 GB), who is right?
    The memory depends on the chipset. So if the chipset supports 4 GB of RAM, you should be capable of this move to 4 GB of RAM

    > 3. I know, my CPU is? FC-PGA-478 aka socket P, max FSB 800 MHz, max 35 W TDP, so T9500 (http://ark.intel.com/products/33918/Intel-Core2-Duo-Processor-T9500-6M-Cache-2_60-GHz-800-MHz-FSB) will be a compatible processor or there are some limitations in the BIOS?

    It might be possible that the new processor would be fully supported by the BIOS, but in most cases it should not be a problem if the chipset would support the new processor.
    But as far as I know the upgrade of the CPU is not supported by Toshiba or any other manufacturers of portable and its your own risk to run laptop with the new processor.
