Bought myself Acer Aspire 5920G :-D

yup, bought myself the Acer Aspire 5920G(Gemstone), my first laptop...
actually my dad's mate brought it for me from Dubai, as it was not available in India...

I am lovin' it(heard that sentence somewhere)

the one which i got has the following specs:


Intel Core 2 Duo T7100 processor
15.4" WXGA Acer CrystalBrite LCD(220nits)
nVIDIA GeFORCE 8600M GT with 256 MB dedicated RAM and TurboCache upto 1GB
2GB DDR2
160GB HDD
DVD Super Multi DL
802.11a/b/g/Draft-N WLAN
Bluetooth 2.0+EDR(dont know what EDR means :-? )
Subwoofer

the bt does work on this model, here are some screenshots:








pics will be up soon....

thanks to all the guys who helped me choosing it and replied to my pms...

i was thinking to write a review, but i havent written any before...

 

and i also wanted to know that how i can make a recovery disk?

 

Look for Acer a program called Acer Empowering Technology or Acer eRecovery, that program will allow you to create recovery disks.

 

EDR- Enhanced Data Rate.

Means bluetooth should be a little faster than the 2.0 standard. Really, it makes little difference.

 

Hi guys,
I had a few queries...

When i try to update nVIDIA drivers(by going to properties and selecting update drive option) it says you already have the latest drivers installed...
But the driver date is 28-4-2007 and driver version is 7.15.11.119

Is it the latest driver?
And also what is Bios?
And how to share memory through turbocache?

 

Driver version is 7.15.11.119 ( Version 101.19) is old and it's not good for gaming
Latest driver is 163.44(You can download it from laptopvideo2go.com)

BIOS hmmm..... simply you need it to start your computer(It contain all the hardware information that need to bootup the computer)

 

thanks a lot mate!
cheers!

 

Interesting... Didn't know that there is a T7100 model.

 

@patrick its an arabic version, my dad's mate brought it for me from Dubai

 

Congrats mate. I have one question tho but its not related to this model
I have a Aspire 5050 but when i try to use the bluetooth it doesnt work. I download iit the software from the Acer website but still
can anyone help me

 

>Interesting... Didn't know that there is a T7100 model.

On the Acer website it shows all of the T7XXX models that are available, from 1.8GHZ up to 2.4GHZ.. So that must be the highest speed available for the 5920G... Funny though, Acer's website doesn't mention the T5250 1.5GHZ at all.

 

here are few pics:

 

By the way, in case you don't know the "empowering" sticker is really easy to peel off.

 

Wow, that's a nice Acer.

 

@patrick i just want to keep it...
just read your review, nice one mate... really liked it...

@liver it is indeed

 

generally Core 2 Duo T7100 processors come with 2MB L2 Cache, but mine came with 4MB L2 Cache, don't know how?




in the specs written on the sticker on the laptop it says Intel Core 2 Duo Processor T7100(1.8GHz, 800MHz FSB, 2MB L2 Cache)

well anyways am glad to notice that

 

Nice nice nice. Good luck and welcome to the Acer clan
