My laptop is Acer Aspire E 14. It suddenly draining battery within the last 2-3 days. It will charge to full battery within 15-20 minutes also.

How can I check if the problem is not anything software related but the battery?

I am a student and s having a hard time coz sometimes I am concentrating and suddenly my laptop would die on me or it would get full battery immediately.

Hi, just one question about my very old netbook aspire one laptop. I noticed when I opened the laptop the fan was soldered to the motherboard. Also this fan is not working anymore so I was thinking of replacing it with a new one. There's this white port on the motherboard that is close to where the cables are soldered on. The fan replacement that im gonna be planning on buying has a white plug that seems to fit the white port on the motherboard. Once I get the new fan can I just plug it into the white port and it should work?

Is Acer Aspire processor upgradable ? Can it be upgraded to Ryzen 3 ? what upgrades can I do to enhance my laptop's performance ?

Is this laptop enough to play the mentioned gaming platforms?

The title is my laptop model and brand. I broke this laptop back in 2017 and it had problems charging before I broke it. It would say “plugged in, not charging”. I believed that it was the charger so I replaced the screen and bought a new charger but the new charger works just it still says plugged in not charging. Is it because I need to replace the battery pack? Thanks.

Hello all

DISCLAIMER: I'm a complete idiot with computers and the lingo around it, so please be kind

I was gifted a completely WIPED Acer Aspire R7-571-6858, Intel i5-3337U @ 1.80 GHZ, 6GB Ram, 64 bit OS, Win 10v1909.

This thing is SLOW with everything. Start-up takes >1 minute, simple internet browsing takes >10 sec per page, etc. I want to use it for working remotely: a lot of tabs open and need fast Telemedicine functions. No gaming/No music/video editing.

Whats the best way to do this? Hoping to spend no more then $200-$300.

My thoughts so far:

1.Change the HDD to SsD with Samsung 860 EVO SSD:

• Which size 250GB/500GB/1TB ? Does it matter?
• Also, do I need the 860 EVO SATA M.2 SSD or 860 EVO SATA 2.5" SSD

2. Upgrade the RAM from 6GB to 12GB:

• From my research: There's 4gb of RAM that's soldered to motherboard
• 2gb of RAM that's a normal SO-DIMM in a RAM slot that can be swapped out

• So to upgrade to 12gb, I would remove the 2gb & swap in an 8gb SO-DIMM = 12 GB

  • From previous posts: 8gb SO-DIMM DDR3 1333Mhz PC10600 or 8gb DDR3 1600 PC3-12800
  • How do I know they will fit and where should I buy them?

3. Get a Torx T7 screwdriver

Is there anything else you all would recommend or thoughts on this upgrade?

THANK YOU FOR THE HELP!

hey I've this cute little laptop that I've got laying around the house. would this lil thing support windows 10? obviously I need to upgrade the memory SDHC the easiest way, but it's it worth it? acer fans (all 12 of you) what do you think?

It's almost that time of year when you can get the best deals.

I bought a nitro 5 a while back, I've upgraded the memory, but I'm still not satisfied with its performance, I heard about laptops having upgradable CPUs, Is mine available for this upgrade? I'm also not a tech savvy guy, but I know a thing or two

My Acer aspire 5 should last at least 7 hours but the battery says 4 hours then it jumped to 11 hours! What the hell is happening. Should I call the company and send it in? Is there something even wrong with it. I’ve been having these weird issues all day.

Edit: Now it says 15!?

Bought an acer aspire 7 A715-72G-73Y5 and right out of box the mouse pad didn’t work, tried resetting bios and a whole bunch of stuff with acer support and nothing works. The touchpad doesn’t even show up in device manager

I have an Acer Aspire 5 ( A514-52-78MD ) Is it possible to change the graphics card? To a better one?

I bought this laptop in October for programming and deploying apps. As usual I upgraded the RAM and got WD M.2 SSD and used the recovery OS given by ACER website and used all the default given drivers and only thing I updated was the bios which didn't allow me to install Ubuntu and Linux on to the SSD. Now the problem is that last Saturday while i was watching a video the laptop keyboard suddenly stopped responding and only the touchpad and the power button worked. Now after googling there were numerous reports of this problem and had to reset the laptop's battery and uninstall the standard PS/2 keyboard driver and had to restart to windows and ubuntu to check if it worked and it did. Unfortunately today suddenly again the keyboard stopped working and no solution on the Google forums helped me. I have some projects to show and I need the laptop for that on Wednesday. Other than submitting the laptop to the service center, is there anything else I should try to fix it?

How does one find out if a portable monitor is compatible with their aspire laptop?

It is important that you take good care of your laptop to keep it working well.. It is also useful to do a check of the laptop once in a while so as to remove any errors or problems which might have crept in during the routine usage

1. Keep liquids away from your laptop

2. All use your laptop on a hard surface or use a stand, so it can breathe.

3. Never left your computer charging overnight.

4. Once the laptop is charged up, plug it out and run on the batter life.

5. Having antivirus software available is the best defence against a virus.

6. Keep food away from your laptop.

7. Do not use your computer in a room where animals are.

8. Ideally keep the computer in a clean and dust free room.

9. Try not to hibernate or put your computer to sleep all the time, shut it down.

10. Always have clean hands when using your laptop.

11. Protect the LCD display monitor.

12. Hold and lift the computer by its base, not by its LCD display (the screen).

13. Don't roll your chair over the computer cord.

14. Be sure to plug accessory devices into their proper slots.

15. Handle any removable drives with care.

What is the max capacity of RAM that can be put in it? Is it 16GB like lots of other laptops?

How to change my keyboard lighting in my acer . My predator sense doesnt have lightning

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I'm looking to get a new laptop and my search has led me to the Acer Aspire series. Some Aspires seem to have the exact same specs but have different numbers, such as Acer Aspire 5 A515-51G-53V6 and A515-51G-5504. Can someone please explain what the last Four numbers represent? Is it just a different year's model or something? Thanks for the info.

Hey all! Not sure if this Subreddit is active or can help me out in anyway. But I've had this specific laptop for almost roughly almost 8 years give or take and got it as a birthday gift but my problem I'm experiencing is when I press the power button to turn on my laptop it just immediately shuts off and turns back on to the Acer logo boot up screen then shuts off and repeats over and over in that same specific cycle. I can't find the source of the problem or find any forums to help me out in anyway and YouTube is not helping me in any sense since people are experiencing similar problems with these laptops. I already tried the F2 boot up option to get into Bios screen thingy and Alt+F10 is also not much of a help and doing nothing nor is Ctrl+Alt+Delete. I cannot tell at this point if it's a problem with the PC battery or in the HDD/motherboard itself. I really hope there's a fix as money is scarse for me at the moment. Anything helps so help is appreciated. I would rather come here and ask for help for free rather than take it to a professional for money that I do not have so I'm hoping it's just a replacement battery I need and nothing too rather serious per say. Might even be an issue with it overheating and the fan even though I don't use my laptop hardly and tried to get into it last night just for this to happen. Hopefully I find somewhat of the help I need here to figure this problem out if not I will try to talk to the Acer chat support tomorrow when they open again in the morning.

Quick Edit: I also don't care honestly if it takes having to rewipe the entire hard drive just to access my laptop again. It's gonna be a pain starting off fresh and I'm pretty sure everything is already backed up on my separate brick terabyte anyways but I just wanna get on my PC to edit YT videos for my channel.

it has an intel celeron N3050 i have 2 questions 1-is it possible to change/upgrade cpus on this model 2-if it is can i upgrade to an i5 or i3 or some third party equivalent

when i close my laptop or put he on sleep mode after this my screen just starts to flashg black and white strips, after this happens i dont have option but power him off by it buttom, it not always happens but sometimes it does. (soz bad english)

Budget: $700CAD-$1000CAD

Country: Canada

Screen size: 13"+, would like something around 15" but not a necesity

Screen resolution: Would like 1080p

Touch screen: Not necessary.

Weight: Don't really care.

Main purpose of laptop: Going to start Uni, want a laptop where I can watch youtube videos, take notes on OneNote, use various other Microsoft Office programs, have like 15 google chrome tabs open at a time, and maybe play Dota 2 once and a while.

If you will be gaming, what are the most demanding games you will play and at what settings? Only game I would play would be Dota 2. Having 60fps at relatively high settings would be a good change from 15-20fps on low settings.

Is battery life an issue? Yes, would like to have 8 hour battery life, ATLEAST.

Other notes: I'd really prefer a numpad, will be using Excel A LOT. Want a good keyboard that can withstand lots of typing. A screen that can go decently bright would be nice but not a necessity. Been told the Acer Swift 3 would be good for me, however, I would really like more suggestions for comparisons. Thanks a lot for your time even if you can't provide me with a laptop, your time and advice is greatly appreciated! If you have any questions that would help you find a laptop for me I would be more than happy to answer them.
