    I read about eNET, eMANAGEMENT, etc., yet the only application on my Aspire ONE (AOA 150-1570) in the eEmpowering folder is the eRecovery Management.

    When I download eNet from ACER's site and try to instal it, I am told that "Empowering Technology Framewrok" is missing. When I fire-up eRecovery and look at the contents, I don't see anything from ACER, just applications and drivers.

    As I can't find these on ACER's website, I wonder how to get a hold of them?

    I had the same problem with my mom's laptop when I installed XP on it. I wouldn't really worry about it as it doesn't really improve system performance.

    Noted. :)

    The reason why I would like these is more out of curiosity than anything else. The ACER site says that I should have them yet I don't. Clicking on LAUNCH MANAGER doesn't start anything. I just downloaded LAUNCH MANAGER from the UK site and I will wait to read further posts before trying to reinstall it.

    If you really want to play with this, the eFramework should be available on Acer's site. Download and install the empowering technology framework first, and then add all the other e-stuff.

    The only Acer software I use is the Launch Manager, and I only use it to run the programable buttons (Internet button, Email button etc.). I lost the Erecovery some time ago, and I haven't missed it because I keep regular backups, and should something ever go wrong, I like to clean install the OS (if it really is that messed up in the first place).
