Anybody has a suggested product, a link would be appreciated.

You'll need to paint that one black. Let us know if it fits in the K-Lock and clears the socket. Looks too big to me but maybe it's the picture. Originally Posted by wasabi.

Re: Acer TimelineX 3820TG Owners Lounge. Info, benchmarks, tweaks, mods and upgrades
Hey guys, just double checking; to update my ATI graphics drivers I need to switch from switchable to discrete in the BIOS? Do I need to uninstall the current ATI drivers, restart, then install the new ones?
I'm asking since at first, to even install the ATI drivers after a win7 installation the BIOS option needed to be at switchable and it worked fine. When it was on discrete the ATI driver just didn't install properly at all.Lenovo X220: i5 2520M / 4GB DDR3 / X25M-G2 160GB / 12.5" 1366x768 IPS / 6-cell battery

Did you download the drivers from Acer's website? I'm trying to do that but I'm having issues installing some of them.. Originally Posted by d.key

I can't figure which ones to install. Some just don't want to work.Last edited by havsbaden; 24th July 2010 at 07:46 PM.

Hmm, 1st thing I did was a complete backup and then I made my driver & app disc. Originally Posted by havsbaden

Btw, the temps and heat management on the Acer is superb. The only warm thing is the warm air coming from the vents ! The whole laptop is just cool to the touch :-)
Ran 3d mark after my clean install and guess what ? Even better scores :-P
