    I recently bought the ACER 5920G and I have to say so far everything has been workin fine, i cannot complain.
    Uninstalled Norton and put bit defender on and the performance has been great.
    My only little trouble is that I do not seem to be able to get the built in microphone to work. I tried to use the sound recorder option given by vista but whenever I try to record nothing comes out.
    I have tried to configure it through control panel/ sounds etc but it is still not workin (neither muted nor anything else).

    Do I need to install a driver just for the mic?

    Thx for your help

    I also have a problem with the mic on my 5920G...all I get is static when I try to use it and everything shows up as working properly.

    Hello everyone,

    I need your help, real bad.

    I have an Acer 5920 aspire series, with Win Xp professional, sp2.

    I am used to talking on gtalk, and realised that acers mic was not loud, so i added the headset, the same problem.

    Then I realised that there is some issue with the driver, a realtek HD audio, 5. something. I have noticed that the microphone option does not get detected, i cannot move the tab at all> the sound from my speakers is aok.

    I updated the latest realtek drivers from the acer site and have the same issue. I just cannot get the mic to work, despite the tinkering and the troubleshhoting.

    Please help me, I know that the rest of the acer s920 guys have the same issue.

    I need you'll to help me.....


    Please... :eek: :eek:
