just return the crap and buy a Lenovo, a Toshiba or a HP, you will be much happier.
Acer does not like Vista and it is not willing to provide all kinds of drivers needed for its computer to work under Vista environment.
And now , in Asia , they never sell anything with Vista and so my Thai friend was forced to choose either XP pro or Linux BE ,so avoid Acer.

here is a good site, read it. -

And in Thailand and Malaysia , as far as I know , all Acer models come with Linux BE, or just simply without Windows of any kind.
Lenovo is a better brand with much better build and customer service for its customers, this is why almost all corporate users buy Thinkpad or Lenovo 3000 series, not TR from Acer.
I dont know anything about South Asia ,so sorry for that, I said Asia meant was like SE-Asia and China ............. -
How I know? Dam right I know cause I'm from Malaysia -

hello everbody i am back . bigspin a question, just in case i do something wrong.
i was checking on my acer aspire 5920g if i had uninstalled the drivers
but i think i didn't erase the drviers before only acers empower technolog,edata,esettings,eaudio,epresetation,enet,epower,acer tour(141),acer vcm,acer launch manager.
these software i uninstalled two weeks before. so i dont now if i uninstalled these software above that i also erase the drives software
well bigspin, i gonna tell you what i downloaded yesterday from acer
1.acer empower technology
2.acer erecovery management
3.acer launch manager.
when i opend acer Erecovery management i saw that my acer system back up file still was at the ercovery management.
it was my old system back up file that i made at the beginning when i first used my acer aspire 5920g, its said 2007 .etc...
so i pressed at restore then it restarted my acer
but i didn't restored my orginally files like i always did before to restore my acer , it did not restore my file back to 2007.
so i use restore to factory settings it also restart my acer normal
normally if i do a restore to factory setting with acer
its take like 2 hours to restore and it restore also vista ,like the first time i opend the acer laptop.
and a question of this hidden partion ,i pressed alt+f10
but i didn't get a restore option.
did i do it the good way
do you how to restore my old back up file from 2007 -
he i found something of how to recover but how can i do this?
Before you perform the upgrade to Windows Vista it is recommended that you create a CD/DVD backup of either the Acer Recovery CDs which are preinstalled in the hidden partition of your Notebook or a self created user backup which can exist on partition D: of your harddrive and will be shown only by the eRecovery utility. With these backup CD/DVD you will able to go back to your old configuration if you decide to do so.
There are 2 different versions of the eRecovery utility, please find the detailed procedures below:
Version 1.x of eRecovery:
(You must have a D: partition on your hard drive which is default setting by Acer Factory preload. This D: partition must be big enough for your user backup and it must be FAT32 formatted. If these requirements are not met eRecovery will not work) -
oh yeah also when i pressed restore to factory or restore back up system files.
i then get a message of details ( hitachi ,86 gb) press accept or cancel) -
Restore your system to factory default .I mean full system restore not a backup restore
-
bigspin can you tell me in steps how to begin with the acer erecovery
so that i choose and pres the right button for full system factory default.
thank you very much -
Acer aspire 5920g laptop i give it up i lose you win
