Acer Aspire 5930(G) owner thread

[windflame87]

Can anyone post any benchmarks of how well this game runs with demanding games like Far Cry 2/ Fallout 3/ Crysis?
What settings and such, that would be great
I just heard from a friend that theirs Acer 7730 can play Crysis at gamer settings, I really struggle to believe that

Tried crysis warhead...u can play gamer setting in 1024X768.i tried enthusiast setting as well in DX9...but not playable in DX10.

Hi every one i just bought an acer 5930g and im been reading the 5 pages of this thread and im just wandering if there any chance to use xp with the full speed of the hd because you need to change it from the bios to get xp installing...and if any one can put the drivers on this forum will be very usefull for other users, since this is the first site ranked in google.

The only way to enable AHCI (SATA) under XP is to install SATA drivers.
Go to www.Intel.com and search them up there.
There is a good possibility you will also Intel Matrix Storage device driver, so download that too.
Once you've installed both, re-enable AHCI function in BIOS.

I'm looking to remove the accompanied Acer bloatware, but I'm unsure about what to uninstall. Would anyone be willing to throw some light on the subject? I'd appreciate the specifics.

Sure thing.
Remove every with Acer program (games incl. - from Oberon media) apart from Crystal Eye camera driver, and the Recovery.
That was the first thing I did when I got my 5930G.

I'm equally unfamiliar with overclocking myself, but the CPU was running at that particular clock rate by default.
