    The size of the base operating system Windows Vista on my Aspire 3680 2682 is larger than 20 GB, is this normal?

    Hello

    Yes; It's normal.

    In addition to the original operating system, you have updates, restore points of the system (set at 15% of the capacity of the hard drive) etc, etc.

    It will continue to grow.

    If you are worried about anything whatsoever, do a disk cleanup.

  • Bluetooth on Aspire 5745G

    I have an Aspire 5745 G computer laptop with an Atheros AR5B97 network card.  I am running Windows 7.  When I check the properties of the Atheros card (via Device Manager), there is an option to turn 802.11 Bluetooth high speed, and this option is currently enabled.  When I look at the specs on the 5745G, two Bluetooth features are listed, but there is an accompanying note that it depends on configuration.  It's not clear to me if this means that the Bluetooth feature is one or the other of the two listed, or if it means that Bluetooth may not be available at all.

    I can't find any indication on the laptop Bluetooth is actually available.  There is no Bluetooth in the Systray logo; There seems to be no Bluetooth entry in the registry.

    Can someone tell me how to check if I have the Bluetooth capability and, if so, how to enable it?  Thank you

    Nice day

    I can confirm that this machine doesn't have Bluetooth.

    Kind regards

  • 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.

    Make the drive from USB recovery Acer before do you so you can return the laptop to factory State. You will need to do a clean install of win 8 or 8.1 and you lose the recovery partitions and all the stuff of Acer.

  • No driver Windows 10 for Acer Aspire M5-481PT

    Dear Sir.

    My laptop (Acer Aspire M5-481PT) model is not listed in the list of update Windows 10. In addition, driver required for this model is not available on the official website of Acer. When will I receive the required drivers?

    navinkr,

    You are right, that this device is not listed as an eligible model so Windows 10 drivers will not be downloaded to our support site for that model and the upgrade would be supported by Microsoft, not Acer. You can visit the service of Microsoft's response using your question, https://support.microsoft.com/#

  • Installation problem Windows 10 on Acer Aspire V5 - 573G

Then I installed windows 8.1 pro, then I went to upgrade to Windows 10 but after a while the update failed and rolled back to the previous version of windows and it showed the error 'the installion failed in the FIRST_BOOT expression with an error during the operation BEGIN_FIRST_BOOT'.

  • Where can I download drivers Windows 10 for my Aspire 4738?

    I want to upgrade my Aspire 4738 Windows 7 Home Premium Windows 10 Home, but I can't find drivers for Windows 10.

    Any help? Please

    Thanks in advance

    pablo_plr,

    If you have not already completed the upgrade, I would recommend that you go ahead and do. I upgraded a laptop S3-391, which is not eligible and I did not download all the drivers, it works very well. It's ultimately up to you, but Acer won't post all the drivers because it is not an eligible model.

  • Windows configuration problem on Aspire M

    If anyone on the forum has experienced the following? My Aspire M displays the following message after trying to download windows updates: "configuration of the Windows updates failed. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer.

    For about 30 minutes, the co0mputer is in this mode to 'come back' and I have to just sit there and wait that it happen by itsexercise. Most frustrating!

    This has happened for at least 8 months now and to the extent where nothing I tried helped. Windows recognizes that it is caused by a problem of Windows software, but did not come with a fix!

    I hope someone can help?

    Hi GuruAid - CS and Acer supports,

    Thanks a lot to you two for your answer to my problem. The response from the Acer Support where for me first and I did not lose any time, applied the suggested steps. Support Acer mail 14/10 got to me and I waited my answer for the following reasons:

    As I mentioned in my original post, this problem has been with me for a while in which I had some Tech Guy (3) looking at my PC and the 'fixing' of the problem. Two days later he was back again. This was the case in all three fixing operations. If I didn't like my Acer Aspire so, that would have been when I was ready to buy a new computer. But, as I said, I am satisfied with the machine - it is the fastest and most powerful I got sofar and I bought my first PC in 1996 - and was reluctant to "abandon ship."

    I can an episode with Microsft. About5 weeks I contacted Microsoft technical support and has been in contact with one of their technical support people. Apparently they charge for this service and they demanded $99 for it. When they took the number and my name on my credit card down, they made a small error in the spelling of my last name. I pointed out to them, but Visa had already pulled the plug on this transaction attempt and had cancelled the card at a time. I had to get a new credit card and did not attempt to communicate with Windows again.

    I finally thought to this forum and only wish I thought of it earlier. Since 14/10 I had NO recurrence of this problem!

    After having so many false hopes, I hesitated to write after a few days the problem has been resolved. I got at least 30 starts and stops since then and there is no problem. After following the instructions Acer supports. I do, however, I keep GuruAids suggests measures on hand - just in case :-))

    So, thank you again for your excellent advice and quick help. I can't get the smile off my face :-)))

    Best regards

  • Driver Windows 10 chart for Aspire 7520

    Im trying to find a compatible graphics driver for my Aspire 7520-5185 with a Nvidea 7000-n610M video card. Nvidea site says the drivers that they are not compatible with some drivers for laptop (they are not as I tried them). I tried the Vista and Windows 7 drivers and they seem to load but have no effect and I still do not see the Nvidia card listed in device, only the default Microsoft Driver Manager. I was running Win 8 Pro X 64 and the driver 179.48 worked, but not with Win Pro 10 X 64. Any ideas of the place where and if Acer will be a compatible driver. I wanted to sell the laptop but not until I found a driver that works. I have improved over the years of Vista. I hope I can find my old Windows 7 key and reinstall Win 7 so I can sell it. Thank you.

    .

    However, you can install the latest WHQL (since August 2010) generic driver 259.47 which has been provided by Microsoft for Windows 8. Simply extract the .cab file and update the driver manually from the Device Manager.
