    See the Acer MXM BIOS modding thread, or the Acer Phoenix BIOS thread.

    I don't what kind of problem the OP had, but it's enabled. You have to have CPU that supports it - T7xxx and up and he seems to have one. Maybe he was misled by other models that do require custom BIOS in order to work.

    Hi
    After changing the processor T5450 -> T9300 no picture. (sorry my bad english).
    My configuration: Acer Aspire 5920G, bios 3813 mod R3, GF 9600M GT 1GB, intel T5450. This configuration works.

    Are you sure you locked the socket? If yes - the CPU is dead.
