By the way, does anyone know what's the software that makes the OSD's for when we switch BT on \ off, WLan on \ off, volume, etc?

It'd be cool to do a fresh install keeping all that stuff.

Dritek Launch Manager, it is listed at the Acer suppport page.

Make a backup disk before you fresh install. All of the original drivers and programs like launch manager, bluetooth, etc, will be in one folder and all the crap ware will be in another. It is really easy that way.

Hm, I think I got that installed, I'm gonna go and see if it's the right version, and try to mess with settings.

I made the eRecovery 3 DVDs factory settings backup. Didn't bother to see what's in there, but if the programs are really clustered together in folders then it's awesome!

It is on the "backup and driver recovery disk". Take a look.

PM me your email address and I'll send you the whole folder.

Is there a nice filehoster to put the "Application und Driver" DVD online?

I don't like Rapidshare.

You have to change the registery key
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Dritek\LManager\Settings\Bluetooth]
"Bluetooth Always On"="0" to "1".

Just press the start button end enter regedit for the registery editor.

Press on the plastic card and it will come out. Now you are able to put the other card in.

Thanks, had a feeling it could only be done in the registry.

Oh, it's true, the eRecovery had some option to burn a Driver and Applications DVD, but for some reason it always said it was incomplete and didn't really copy much.

I've installed the Launch Manager now, I'd forgotten I had the wrong version that couldn't install . I think I'm not missing anything but SATA II right now, but it seems there's some hardware lock on that ( and I can't figure what, sadly ).

@Just_a_Nick, thanks for the tip
