6935G Quick Question.

It says on the spec it has a 320gb hard drive and that it supports dual HDD.

My question is, Does it come with 2 X 160gb or 1 X 320gb?

Thanks

 

It's 1x320GB, I confirm

Aniway, I haven't seen the spec that said it supports dual HDD... are we able to add another Hard Drive?

 

I saw it on acer website.

Click tech specs at the bottom and then 6935G.

And again it says it here:

That's good news. I will look for it. I will ask to the service center to be sure. That is very interest especially because HDD of 320 GB are not so expensive But they say on the technical spec : up to 320GB, does it means over 320GB, it's not supported?

 

320gb 2.5" sata are the biggest single drive configurations available is all that means.

 

Great I will think for adding a 400 or 500GB HDD and additional 2GB ram very soon

 

Darika i see you use 64 bit vista on your 6935G. Have you got acer arcade working on 64 bit? i can't see a download anywhere.

 

ACER ARCADE are games right? I do not like the kind of games they give so I save some space on my hard disk then.

 

no its what runs ontop of the windows media center.

 

most of the acer stuff is ****e anyway.
but you need to keep the launch manager don't delete Launch Manager

 

I heard the blu ray playback only works on acer arcade and not on media center can anyone confirm this?

thanks

 

now that's something to look in too.

microsoft have released a codec for media player 11 to run/play blu-ray just looking for the link

can only find blogs

Not really, there is some (disappointing)workarounds though. Check the link below.

Just noticed this is an year old page maybe the situation has changed since then..

 

you spotted a few old pages on the web. nothing new

 

Nope, the most recent topic about that I could find is from 5 months(Vista media center) which confirms the old one..

EDIT:

Hmmm... need to make sure acer arcade works before i upgrade to 64 bit then it seems.

 

I do not have a blu-ray player so, Acer Arcade is still not useful for me

 

Hi there,

I've asked Acer if they have any 64bit versions of "Acer Arcade Deluxe" and their response was "not at present".

In order to install the 32 bit version of Acer Arcade Deluxe on your Vista 64bit OS just follow the steps below:

1. In the 32 bit version of Vista Home Premium launch the eRecovery Management option and take the "Back up Drivers and Applications" option and back them up onto DVD disc.

2. Install your chosen version of Vista 64bit onto your Acer laptop

3. After Vista 64bit install is complete and you have applied all 64 bit drivers (available from Acer Support site) and run all Windows Updates load the "Drivers and Applications" DVD into your optical drive.

4. When prompted take the "Run AutorunX.exe" option and navigate to the contents section where you should see all 32 bit versions of the software originally loaded on the laptop (including Acer Arcade Deluxe).

I've been playing blu ray discs with the latest version of Acer Arcade Deluxe (2.1.6010) on my 64bit version of Vista Ultimate without any issues so far.

I hope the above info is helpful to somebody.
Of course the other option is to purchase PowerDVD 8 Ultra.
