Hi

I want to know if someone here have found a real internal Antenna for TV-tuner.

For the moment i've always seen, wifi like antenna.

But i think this type of Antenna are not well calibrated for TV frequency signal.(Wave length)

Hello again,

I upgraded my Acer 7720G with the geforce 9600 card, and sorted my heat issue. But now I have a "random" blank screen. Anyone got an idea why this is happening?

Likely a driver issue.

Hi

I've updated my ENE CIR port with driver 3.6.0.0, seems to be the latest version available here :

Download ENE CIR Receiver Windows 7 Driver v.3.6.0.0

works fine with Ene0100.

But i want to know how to obtain a working remote control who use C6 protocol

I have 3 remote control,one from Acer, 2 from HP, but nothing seems to work.

any suggestion ? (perhaps the .inf needs some mods ?)

Regards,Ray

PS :

After some .inf exploration i see that :

[enecir_inst.NT.AddReg]
HKR,,DeviceCharacteristics,0x10001,0x0100 ; Use same security checks on relative opens
HKR,,Security,,"D:P(A;;GA;;;BA)(A;;GA;;;SY)" ; Allow generic-all access to Built-in administrators and Local system
;HKR,,"IrHid",0x00010001,1 ; ir hid non RC6. Manually add it(REG_DWORD) in registry to enable ZINWELL PV-100

seems the EN0100 doesn't support RC6 protocol , and you need this remote control :

Don't hesitate to correct if i'm in wrong way.

I just put the 9600M GT in my 7720g. The acer screen looks fine, but as soon as windows loads up I can see green vertical lines running through the background. When windows is fully loaded, my desktop has very faint horizontal ripples running through the background.

I uninstalled my old drivers and installed the latest new ones from laptopvideo2go, but that didn't change a thing.

What should I check for?

EDIT: After watching more closely, the green vertical bars can be seen on the black screen a split second before the white acer load screen starts.

Also, when I try to run the official Nvidia drivers, I get a message telling me nvidia can't find any compatible hardware.

Any help is appreciated, all these laptop issues are making me feel so useless I'm scared to try a new vbios, but I'm also scared to send the card back, because a new one might have the same problem :/

EDIT2: When I install the LV2G drivers, GPU-Z tells me I have the 9600M GT / GT 2 .... installed. What's up with that :/ Also, it's DDR2 1024 MB memory, but the card I ordered was the DDR3 with 512MB memory version.
Device manager lists: Nvidia Geforce 9600M GT / Geforce GT 220M

@kailog:

Normally, green line like that are usually caused by bad graphics memory module so it looks like one of the memory chips is probably faulty.

Also, check the number engraved on the memory chips and google it to see if it refers to ddr3 module or ddr2 and you'll know for sure if its ddr2 or 3.

after that if you bought it on ebay and was listed as ddr3 and in fact is ddr2 you can ask for a refund because the item was significantly not as described.

good luck

Thanks, in that case I'll probably return it.

My pc-shop put the card in and I'm a tad reluctant too open it up myself again (some screws are almost un-screwable :/ ), so I'll head back to the store to let them check the serial again.

I should have double-checked it before I put it in, but I was too excited.

just to signal :

CSX 4GB DDR2 800Mhz 200Pin SO-DIMM
CSXO-D2-SO-800-4GB

WORKS if you used only 1 memory Module, but strange :

Bios recognize 7680MB of memory but Windows see correctly 4GB

DON'T WORK if 2 Module are fitted in my 7720G :

Start, but blackscreen, no Post screen.


PS: The memory module works Perfectly in my 6930G (1 or 2 simultaneously)


Can someone can confirm me this one are the good one :

You won't be able to put more than 4gb total in your 2 available slots. After a little search on google, the 7720 seems to be limited to a max of 4 gb. That's why i doesn't start when you put 2 x 4gb in it.
