    i have an acer aspire 5315. i just bought an intel core duo 2 t7500 2.20 ghz processor.
    it fits in the socket and runs most programs really good, when i open windows media player to listen to music, the audio cuts out.
    any ideas?

    upgrade your BIOS to Version 1.34

    that should fix the "bo bo" sound issues as acer called them

    later,

    some audio runs ok. not all the time.
    me and a friend were watching a movie, and the audo would cut out. i would have to stop the movie and restart it.
    its hard for me to download anything. i am in iraq right now, and the only internet access i have is at the mwr. we are not supposed to download anything on mwr computers or networks.
    i would hate to have to box up the t7500 for 6 months.
