Added on January 26, 2010, 8:02 amAnd 1 question, there is 1 saleman say that this batch acer laptop with i5 proc got problems, something like fsb got problem, cannot run windows 7 (even run window xp also cannot), some pc games & apps compatible issues lar, and ask me to get an older version lappy with higher price which is 4736g, any pro can guide me? How in the world that it cannot run Win 7..well, i5 is quite new so maybe got some bugs but in the future for sure this will be solve later on  ...Acer 4736G is way old la, better this model instead  ... |

QUOTE(Hawaiiii @ Jan 26 2010, 09:16 AM) that guy told me the i5 proc fsb got problem and just 133mhz not 1066, and he show me 1 model with xp os cannot start up, he advice me not to buy this, if not I sure regret. I just weird why intel promote I series proc so much and he say not good? Well, all know that 1066Mhz FSB just a level bar...even a 667Mhz is more than enough lor...1 model cannot start with Win XP, did he do the installation right in front of you?? Or he just showed one with XP that cannot boot-up  ...what error??  Agree with the post above me stated that, the seller want to clear all 4736G before start selling 4740G  |

KL should have lots of choices when comes to places to buy laptops...i guess in LYP already have this model but dun know about the freebies though  ... About the RAM, i guess would be 1x2GB...mostly all laptop now is using 1x2GB ..need to ask the owner for more accurate answer |

FIFA 2010 would run fine with this laptop...and also, maybe you can ask your friend to re-install the driver, like Eugene said, sometime things like this are software related |

QUOTE(Chyan @ Mar 4 2010, 10:54 AM) Still haven't decide which laptop I'm gonna get. See here and there... But then this laptop still is the best buck for it's specs. Hard time there.. well, there is also Asus A42Jr & A52Jr ...but like you said, Acer is still the best in price QUOTE(starz92 @ Mar 4 2010, 10:55 AM) means all kind of laptop with win7 will face the same problem? Nope, this model of Acer precisely...mine BenQ S42 got no problem with Win 7 ..my bro Timeline 3810T also no freeze/hang problem |

You can always download it yourself..yes, some are equipped with other language but for some just the common language are installed..just go to MS website and download the language package that you need..can save space also  |

So freezing issue still intact with this model?? Seems to me that pre-loaded Win 7 mostly got this problem and after formatting it, the problem mostly gone..my guess would be Acer bloatwares ...well, still need Acer to find out about this problem |

Added on April 19, 2010, 12:48 pmBetter not because seems like there's no XP drivers for this unit in Acer site, unless you are willing to google for it independently  ... This post has been edited by miahahaha: Apr 19 2010, 12:48 PM |

Open 24/7 won't overheat ...unless you are doing something to stress the CPU/GPU, then it will ... About that driver thingy, no need to buy, just download will do..and page load sometime slow/fast, seems to me the problem is either with the connection or the apps |
