You can use the Acer website to search for updates for your Acer Drivers or use a Driver Update Tool such as DriverDownloader monitored and certified by AppEsteem to automate this process for you. Once you install the Acer Drivers updates then this should fix your Drivers problems.
You can either manually or automatically download Driver updates, the former is free while the latter usually requires a registration fee with the software tool used. To manually update Acer Drivers :. If you want to manually check if your Acer Drivers need an update you can go to the Device Manager which provides a list of all the hardware devices on your PC and will show you usually with a yellow triangle and exclamation mark if there are issues with one of your devices.
In many cases the answer to this is yes, however in some cases the manufacturers no longer make the Drivers available so you need to use a Driver Update Tool to install the missing Drivers.
The purpose of DriverDownloader is to save you time and effort by automatically downloading and updating the Drivers for you. As we can see, the company highlights the combination of ultra-portability and high performance.
Web site, tech support Unfortunately, it is not possible to go from the model catalog page directly to technical support. You have to instead use the menu. The first page of the tech support web site is devoted to the warranty. It says that the warranty is valid only if you have a warranty coupon. Otherwise, the warranty will be up to your retailer. This page describes warranty peculiarities for Acer Ferrari notebooks.
All Travelmate models come with a two-year warranty. The international warranty is not described well, though. In addition, the website doesn't offer complete information on what you must do in the case that your notebook is broken. The process of downloading drivers is not very good in our opinion.
First you choose your notebook model in the list. On the next page, you choose the necessary driver from the drop-down menu. Then a window pops up with a download link. The process seems easy enough, but the problem is it is difficult to tell whether you even need to download a new driver because no driver version is listed.
However, for advanced users direct FTP links to the drivers and utilities should cancel out the above inconveniences. We should also mention that the bundle does not include a Recovery CD. A recovery image is stored on the hard drive, and the built-in utility suggests that you burn the image to a compact disc at startup. The company has started including an empty recordable compact disc into the bundle, this was users can create a recovery CD without having to buy a spindle of blanks CDs.
Dimensions and weight Test results Mobile Mark failed to start under Windows Vista, and so we tested the notebook in the reading mode we opened a book in a reader and in the video playback mode playing a DivX movie repeatedly.
We ran the tests with both batteries - one of which is mWh and the other mWh capacity. Interestingly, the difference in battery life is almost exactly proportional to the difference in battery capacities. We forgot to disable WiFi several times, so the notebook started to search the network from time to time. Despite this, when we re-ran the test, there was almost no difference in battery life - to within minutes.
The notebook runs on batteries long enough, but it does not break any records. Our attempts to change the power consumption scheme in the Acer settings did not change its battery life. Subjective characteristics Keyboard and pointing devices The wide panel used in this notebook significantly changes the layout of the device - the notebook becomes wider and shorter because of it.
This added width, however, creates more room for the keyboard. The keys are wider and more ergonomic unfortunately, not all manufacturers use this opportunity - they install standard keyboards. The wrist pads, though, are smaller now, meaning your palms may slip off the notebook from time to time.
The keyboard of this notebook is a compromise layout. The left part is very convenient and easy to use, even for touch typing. We should also mention that the ctrl key is in the corner, which is more convenient for touch typing just like in desktop keyboards.
The only complaint we have with the right part is the two narrow buttons in the middle and upper row, and one narrow button in the bottom row. So it's rather inconvenient for touch typing. But even if you watch as you type, it's still more difficult to hit the narrow buttons.
Del is in the corner, so it's very easy to find this button as you type. Tge "gup" and "pgdn" keys are near the cursor keys. It's convenient to use them when you read text, primarily because these buttons are near the cursor keys and allow for easily scrolling down pages. The problem is, from time to time you may end up pressing the wrong key pgup or pgdn instead of left or right , because these buttons are twice as high.
The Home and end buttons work only while Fn is being pressed. To be honest, though, it's hard for manufacturers to come up with a different solution with this keyboard's dimensions. We'd like to mention that the keyboard is also narrow. There is, however, stil enough room around it- over a centimeter at each side.
The maximum capacity of 31 watts is only 4 watts more than with the Pentium M predecessor. Both cores are lowered automatically and independently of each other by speed steps down to 1 GHz.
In addition it now supports also SSE3 instructions. At least it is just as fast as a equivalent Pentium M. With applications, which were designed for multi-processors, the performance can be nearly twice as fast as with the Pentium M e.
