It doesn't look large and blurry, in fact it's pretty nice and sharp. Gaming wise the screen does well.

Try looking for it in the Garage Sales section. Otherwise you can try referring to Acer themselves, or pay a visit to one of the many shops in Low Yat Plaza.

Hi guys, i just bought Acer V3-471G and reformat it. One thing i'm confuse is how do i install back the VGA driver?

http://support.acer.com/us/en/product/defa...=1&modelId=4075

As i can find 3 different drivers here, please help

You should install all three drivers provided. Two of them are for the nVidia GPU, while the last one's for the Intel HD3000.

If i connect this to my 23inch monitor that have a native resolution of 1920x1080 will my monitor display at hd resolution or 1366x768?
I need that resolution for photoshopping...

Each screen will run at their maximum resolution unless you set it to run at some different resolution.

updated to the latest nvidia drivers, much more stable, but since i've been using my baby less this month, can't tell if the bsod problem has been completely fixed.

@ powx84 :
connected both a 23 inch 16:9 and 17 inch 4:3 as secondary monitors in both clone and extended desktops mode with no problems. however need to set each screen's resolution manually lar, it doesn't auto set to the highest reso available for both.

I just got my new V3-571G an hour ago! Happy man

Grats on ur laptop dude . Felt like changing to V3 also . My 5750G look old compared to V3 despite just one year old

I'm currently using the latest beta nVidia driver. So far so good, and it seems like the occasional blackness that befalls Company of Heroes when I'm playing it on the V3-571G has been solved.


Congratulations .

Thanks! 5750G still very good

Thanks!

Use this tool to get updated drivers for the Intel HD 4000 :

anyone using V3 471G?
im having trouble playing game...
i have changed the global setting to high perfomance nvidia processor
plus the physX also i change to Nvidia

but when i play game
it still lagged...
and and take a long time to load the sims3....
and it lagged badly

can anyone help me?

wahh V3 571G....i think V3 471G can also handle high graphic demanding game like Battlefield and crysis rite..

any one??

or is it because i have 2gb of ram in window 7 64 bit??

When did you get your laptop? And when did the problem started?

That could be an issue. 2GB of RAM and Windows 7 64 Bits is a bad combination.

its a gift from my gf
not sure where she get it from
its brand new
i got it last sunday

then the first game i tried to istall is the sims 3
but it takes a long time to load and it lagged badly

my desktop using Dual COre and GeForce 210 can run this game smoothly


should i upgrade my RAM?

You'll definitely want to add more RAM. It may not solve your problem though.

Anyway, is windows booting up fairly long? If it seems pretty much normal to you, then the hard disk is probably fine and the problem may lie with the amount of RAM you have after all. Otherwise if Windows booting up is really slow, then you may want to check the hard disk for errors.

anyone know where to buy keyboard protector for acer v3-571g??

Hello fella's,

I'm an owner of a Acer v3-471G. i5 ivy, GT630M

During idle state, without a cooling-pad, while on battery, does the fan ever stop? like does it stop for a while and then start again; or does it spin continuously?

With the laptop set to "power saver" plan, and with the CPU cooling set to "passive" in the power plan settings, does the fan still spin continuously?

Can all you post your acers' temperatures during Idle-state, internet browsing only, and torrent download only, running on battery set to "power saver plan. Without using a cooling-pad, on a flat surface, both in an air conditioned area and non air conditioned area, and the program you used. This would help many users to know when something is going wrong or when it is starting to go wrong.


After installing the Acer crystal eye webcam program, does the webcam image get darkened? and what is the resolution of the camera? I know it says HD webcam but the quality seems very poor for a 1.3MP.
Can all of you take one picture of something using the webcam in a well lit/daytime area and post it as a sample.

Thank you all of you fellow Acers

Thanks for adding me in. I've owned mine since May actually, though I never knew there was an owners club for it.

Will be adding an ssd soon- the standard hard disk is the only weak link in this laptop IMO.

And another 4gb of ram- the original is Hyundai. Anyone know of any incompatibilities if I plug in another 4gb of Kingston?
