track who enters vista login password on acer aspire laptop

I have am acer aspire 5050-3371 laptop with windows vista and all available updates currently installed.  My problem is that whenever the battery is installed, you will need to press several times for the password several times before that they will appear on the password entry screen.  given that the actual characters do not show do not know if the correct letters are engtered.  In addition if I remove the battery from the laptop the problem goes away.  You can type the easiily password and the system accepts it.  I tried to get help this problm of the Technical Support desk with Acer was cut when they determned that the laptop was not under warranty.  Any ideas for solving this problem?

My only suggestion is to go on the manufacturer's site and buy a replacement battery.
The problem is: it could be a bad connection between the battery and the laptop, in which case, you could have bought a new battery for nothing.

What would you say to consider in your RELIABLE local computer maintenance shop... do not take the "geek squad". For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.

    I lost the recovery of Windows Vista Ultimate Edition disc, where to get a replacement.
    I have to rebuild my laptop.

    Hello

    No - what are the two Acers come with a recovery disk?

    If this is not the case, one of them would have a recovery partion, which specifically is to reinstall the operating system on it.

    With an Acer, you press Alt + F10 at startup to start the recovery process.

    All data are lost when you do the above.

    And for the lost disc, contact Acer and ask them to send you recovery disks.

    They do that for a small fee:

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    Hi Markprentice,

    ·         Since when are you facing this problem?

    ·         Remember to make changes to the system?

    ·         Have you defined a plan of power on laptop?

    I recommend you perform the clean boot.

    Put your boot system helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

  • Windows Vista login password lost - how to get around?

    Hello

    I managed to forget my login password for my account, so I can't bypass the connection now. Is it possible so I can restore my password? My account has administrator rights.

    There are many ways to 'restore' a lost windows password... But I guess that you are not involved in anything like that, so it is quite difficult to explain. Takes a long time. You have sensitive data on your account? Otherwise I would advice you to reinstall windows. If you have sensitive data, you can try to take your hard drive to another computer and make an account on which now bears the same name as yours. You may be able to copy your data then.

  • Bottom loading and use of the licensed version of Windows 7 instead of the licensed version of Windows vista Home premium on acer ferrari laptop

    I use an Acer ferrari laptop model with windows vista home premium OS. I would like to know if I can do the free download and use windows 7 instead of windows vista in laptop (I understand that there is a similar model earlier). The laptop is used entirely for personal use @ home, not for purposes of Trade/office.

    Windows Vista is to give a lot of problems even with installed virus scan software. It is slow and gives challenges to the use of household memebrs.

    Many offered computer manufacturers free updates from Vista to Windows 7 on computers purchased during a certain period of time, but this time with the supply have long expired.  There is no such offer to download/update free available anywhere.

  • Acer Aspire laptop bluescreened, will not start even in safe mode, running vista

    My roommates son asked me to help him to be on the internet, which I did, ran unusually slow in doing so, I noticed it when I checked, I found that the notebook had three solutions of different software protection, antivirus, Norton, McAffrey and AVG 2011 version for free. Also I noticed he had some solutions that provided a diagnosis, list of problems found and wanted to pay for the product before they would allow acccess to the fix. I uninstalled Norton and the McAffrey and improved the AVG free version of 2012. I also uninstalled the pesky diagnosis/buy me for the correction and the ask.com toolbar software. I installed ccleaner from piriform as well. The laptop seems to run a little faster, but the next morning he projected blue and when I tried to start it in safe mode it not loaded so far and then frozen, always in the same spot something AVGi and then it crashes, it will not load the rest of the necessary drivers. I tried to boot to the last known good as well. I even tried to downgrade to Windows xp home edition sp3 and when I do it it says there is no hard drive detected, and do I have to make sure that it works correctly.  I am at a loss, my sons friends bought the laptop (Acer Aspire 5315) for $50.00 and did not get a recovery disk so that the option does not exist or the other. What can I do to solve this problem. I'm sure that for some reason, it has to do with the BIOS and I went to the Acer site (from my laptop) and downloaded something to repair the bios on a flash drive, but me is not good because I can not start on either flash player. I am at a loss here and have no idea how to solve this problem. I am practically self-taught and I am a beginner when it comes to repairing the problems. This one is right behind me, someone has an idea what is my problem?

    I even tried to downgrade to Windows xp home edition sp3 and when I do it it says there is no hard drive detected, and do I have to make sure that it works correctly.

    If you tried to install Windows XP, and it says that? Do you have any installation CD? I don't want to say this, but maybe the hard drive went kaput. Maybe a little rare, but it can happen and so he bought the laptop for $50, which I am sure he did not a store. You hear a clicking sound from the hard drive? Have you checked for the hard drive in the BIOS?

  • Acer Aspire laptop with Vista Home Basic Edition does not, System Restore does not, sfc, find corrupt files but do not repair. Need help!

    Hi, I have an Acer laptop Aspire with Vista Home Basic Edition that came pre-installed, so no records only the disk hard drive partition.

    I turned on my laptop today and it starts but the loading bar of stalls at the black screen with "(c) Microsoft Corporation" and dragging green. The slide bar will continue to drag, but nothing else happens which means that I understand even as much as the login screen. I rebooted and tried Windows recovery, but the only remedy to what he suggests is a restoration of the system, which does not have any point, I try to restore it.

    To remedy this, I have connected in safe mode and ran the SFC command prompt. It scans my system and told to find corrupted files, but he can't heal some. This is where my knowledge limit runs out. I don't know how to fix the files that the SFC cannot. (Also I created a journal using the findstr command prompt and checked but it say anywhere that it was unable to fix it so I'm not even sure how to identify corrupted files)

    As it's an Acer laptop, Aspire I'll try their eRecovery tool to return my computer to factory settings, but it won't work in safe mode, and as I said I can not connect normally. I tried alt and F10 at the initial boot screen when I turn on, it loads the windows files and shows the Acer "Please wait a moment" screen and then nothing happens again.

    I can't afford to get it fixed, and there is no chance I can get a new laptop. Any ideas/help? Thank you.

  • I can't type my login password to open my laptop.

    WWhen, I opened my laptop, the login screen appears, I try to type my password but the keyboard does not work. How can I get the keyboard to answer?

    A possibility: If the computer has been asleep and not closed down for a long time (hours) and not connected to the power supply, when I opened my MacBook Air, it may take some time (perhaps 10 to 15 seconds) until he responds to the keyboard or trackpad. There seems to be something that takes more time from El Capitan (OS X 10.11) was released.
