Acer Aspire 6935G - new bios v 1.20

Hello,

I must inform you about new bios version 1.20 for Acer 6935 - all works ok,but
there is a same battery consumption problem like presented in thread 6935 firmware update 1.19 - great battery consumption by power off and disconected AC power adapter (10 - 15% battery capacity per night)

Do you have same expiriences? Thanks JirkaZ

 

Same here, installed 1.20(VT-x is still not enabled by default, but can be easily enabled using short walk-through by lordkag on the 46th page of aspire6935 discussion thread( here is a link for your convinience http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=335855&page=46). But beware, you must download Python 2.64, and follow lordkag's instruction , since it(basically vtenable.py) wouldn't work with Python 3.12 (the reason is simply because syntax and semantics is slightly different from Python 2.xx, exactly the way C++ syntax is slightly different from the C one)
As for power consumption when turned-off, I can also confirm that this bug, introduced in version 1.19, is still present. Hope to see it fixed soon, but as it is frequently mentioned in many other threads, please submit request to Acer to fix this problem, as the biggest incentive for any company to fix something is when customer is unhappy )

 

wonders whats changed this time round...
