    You can delete anything but:

    • Realtek (for sound)
    • Launch Manager (for FN keys)
    • Atheros (for Ethernet)
    • All Intel programs
    • Acer Crystal Eye Webcam (not really needed unless you want the program it comes with)
    • Optical Drive Power Manager (to save battery with the optical drive)

    Neither my 3810t or 1830t came with that identity card, so I don't know what it is.

    hey man if im right its just a program which turns off your optical drive, when its not in use, and help save battery. to turn it back on you just have to press the eject button, takes a couple of secs but if it saves battery im all for it ^.^ hope this helps
