[Acer Aspire 1410/1810t/1810tz] Timeline Tweaks (2)

wow.. just started and like on 1% i already have 11 errors so I need to check them separately cause i know for sure 1 ram slot is working correctly.

So it also could be possible that 1 ram slot is broken ?

[Disinto]

Whow that's weird. Yeah it can indicate a malfunction of a RAM slot, but also some compatibility problems with the BIOS, although I saw that you flashed it with the latest version.
Maybe you could ask feedback from some users in the general thread who bought the same RAM kit?

A New guy here... D'oh...

I did the speaker trick on my 1810T. It Really worked.

I can actually hear stuff without having to put my ear next to the PC.

Just for that, I'm glad I joined!!!
Hope you can help me with other stuff too. A great site.

Thanks

this is just a joke 1 of my ram slot doesn't work on all 3 memory units it failed (including the original Acer gave me) and even on 1 i could not get into windows, bluescreen all the time. Really frustrated does this apply on Acer warranty i have receive this at Christmas eve, so i might charge my retailer for not delivering a good product and want a new one instead of getting repaired or dealing with their customer services

@dexterity,

try switching ur ram piece on the used slot (the one comes bundled with the ram).

This forum is great! I love my Acer 1410 (SU3500) and the advice on this thread has really helped improve the performance.

To date, I've updated to Window 7 x64 (from Vista), updated BIOS (3303), loaded the 1986 Intel driver, and installed most drivers from the Acer page.

Everything seems to be working great except video playback...
WMP12 - AVCHD video from HD camcorder is choppy. Also, can't play Planet Earth mkv file.
MPC-HC - AVCHD files flash green during playback. I tweaked the settings and was able to play the Planet Earth mkv video smoothly.
Splash - Didn't work well, but I didn't play with the settings much.

The HD Video link from the first page seems to imply WMP12 plays files fine/smooth. Is there more to it than that? I'm wondering if I need to convert my AVCHD files to another format in order to play them smoothly.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hey,

Is it normal to have a 5.2% wear on a new 1810tz? I plugged it in as soon as i got it and unplugged it when the fully charged light came on, which was like 5 minutes later. I didnt think to check and see if it was reading a 100% charged at that point.

3.there is a lot of bloatware on the machine, what to delete and what to keep?


Thank you.

Actually according to battery bar, I also have 5.2% wear. . . I got my 1810T 2 days ago!

Just ordered an 1810tz should be here in a couple of days. Whats the best ram you guys recommend??? Will I see a big difference from 677 to 800mhz??? Or should I just stick to stock? I found this OCZ OCZ2M8004GK PC2-6400 DDR2 800MHz SODIMM 4 GB Kit
