Soundtech Cyprus - Beware

Feel free to talk about anything that you want.

Acer 8935G, which i could not source in Cyprus. The HD video chip works but the on board SD video chip does not - so I have to log on to a blank screen - then the ATI chip takes over and everything is normal.

Please forgive my misuse of technical terms above!

Try updating your motherboard’s chipset first with this…

Intel Chipset Driver

If that doesn’t fix the problem update your video driver with this…

ATI VGA Driver

http://global-download.acer.com/GDFiles ... er&SC=PA_7


If any of the above links don’t work you can get them from here by narrowing down to your model manually…

Just got a call from Cyprus Consumer Organization, they told me as long as i have a receipt, a service card issued ( i have) and all that was within the 2 year after purchase they cannot ask money for repairs. They also asked me to scan everything and send it to them.

Lana,

NB: A very recent BIOS update on offer (2009/11/17) for your laptop suggests known issues/problems…

Once you unzip this run the following file from your hard disk…

C:\BIOS_Acer_3207_A_A\BIOS_ACER_3207_Windows_Aspire 8935G\Windows\ZY8_3207_Win.exe
