Hi people I'm getting an intermittent problem with my 3002 WTMI communicating with the Easy Dock. There are no problems with power, video (analogue), networking and sound. However, when it's sulking, I get no USB or firewire port communication. This always happens on start-up (sometimes on a...

Acer 5024WLMi my Bluetooth and wireless LAN buttons doesn't seem to work anymore. I press them..and nothing happens. Normally, there would be "WLAN or BT device enabled/disabled" in the right bottom of the screen. I can't think what's the reason.

Can anyone point me to the full Acer 3023 WMLi service manual? I have seen the fully exploded view and various FRU lists, but I would like to have the full manual. I have been involved in PC servicing for many years so I need the specifics only included in this type of manual.

I bought a Acer 5003 laptop about a month ago and now somebody (wasn't me) spilled liquid (I don't know what kind of liquid either) in it. The laptop was on all night playing music and was on in the morning with liquid all over it. Then I turned it off as soon as I saw it, wiped the liquid out, let...

Hi guys, I don't know - i'm quite frustated right now. I have a Travelmate 290 1.4GHz WINXP and I'm very happy with it but for some reason my onboard INTEL WLAN device won't power up after reboot (The orange LED at the front doesn't go on) and I can't get WLAN connection. Sometimes it works,...

Hi My display screen has gone "technical" (lots of vertical lines, failing to boot up, failing to get past a "agp..." system file). I took it to a shop and they said it will likely cost $400+ to send to acer and repair because it looks like either the graphics card or motherboard. Their advice...

Hi, My Aspire 1501LCe notebook is displaying some strange behaviour. With the notebook plugged in, the CPU throttles down as it should do when it's idle, but (using the same power scheme) it doesn't throttle AT ALL when on batteries - it keeps running at 1.8GHz at all times. The only way I've...

Hi all, I would like to enable the USB-Boot feature on my laptop. It's very essential to me. Do you know any tool for editing the BIOS of my Acer? Or maybe how to edit it via hex-editor? Thx in advance. -- /raider

Did your machine come with the Acer eFramework? You might try using their website to download if not and use the ePM. It's better than nothing. Is it a pentium or AMD and is the motherboard Acer, Intel? At that speed, I can't believe you wouldn't have built in SpeedStep which steps your ghz/Mhz...
