Acer Aspire 7750g Owner's Thread

[jkruer01]

Does anyone have any pictures of what needs to be removed with a Dremmel to get the 2nd hdd to fit? I'm looking at my SSD drive and I'm looking at the space in the 2nd hdd bay and I don't see how I could remove enough to get the SSD drive to fit.

This looks like the best bang for the buck, who is selling these online right now?

I was thinking that it wasn't the bay itself that needs alterning, but the plastic panel that coverage the entire unit needs to be cut to allow for the extra depth the 2nd hdd needs. Just guessing here.

As far as I know, the tigerdirect links that have already been posted in this thread are expired, not sure what the current price is.

Depends on the model you got. My 7750G wouldn't fit my SSD in after removing the plastic, so I had to take the SSD out of the casing and just put it in like that.

If you do want to remove the plastic, you can grab a pair of pliers and just snap the plastic out. I know, it sounds really rough, but it snaps off really cleanly. No need for a dremel.

Epower management has no control over fan speed. It's just a replacement for a Windows power scheme and not much more.

Shame, i wanted slowing down cpu fan and make laptop silent.

Strange your Travelmate is so noisy, I don't have the problem with the Aspire 7750G. Mine is essentially silent when not playing intense games. Wondering if it is something with your drivers or BIOS. Is the Travelmate cooling design much different from the Aspire?

Does MSI Afterburner not allow you to adjust fan speed?

I must explain the problem.
Updated measuring utilities. Now Core Temp and Throttlestop show same and hope right temperature. Min 40°C and max 57° when use internet. Cpu fan turn on when cpu core reaching 50° C and shut down when ~45°C. Looks nice.
Mainly problem is, that procedure with turn on and turn off cpu fan become 2x-4x in 1 minute and that is annoying.

So MSI Afterburner doesn't work? It allows setting all kinds of speed/temp points for the fan.

popeye1128: Tried, cpu fan speed showing 61 % speed auto settings. When i set up self speed to 25% graph shows 25% but rpm are still same. For you this work?

What program have you found to read RPM on the 7750G? Everything I try only shows percentage. I'll let you know my results once you point me to the program for RPM. Thanks.
