  Check the individual settings of your network adapter in Device Manager. :)

  guys may tips ba kayo kung pano palamigin ung netbook natin? (bukod sa underclock - underclock na kasi ung akin...hehehe)
  
  nga pala gamit kayo splash lite, it uses GPU to play videos
  
  CPU ko is 70% to 100% if normal player lang
  pag with GPU gamit ko like splash lite nasa 30% to 50% lang ung CPU usage

  @ccl
  
  Thanks for your reply. The 1551 surprisingly worked in a hotel wifi on the first connection attempt. Then, it worked on our own wifi.
  
  The surprising thing is that I didn\'t change the connection settings for it to work. Thus, I don\'t know why it had limited connectivity the very first time in our own wifi.
  
  Anyway, it\'s so nice that it\'s connects smoothly to the internet now.

  i\'m very much interested with this notbook... anyone tried running ubuntu yet?
  thanks!

• cooljack on 26 Apr 11 @ 11:32 AM #

  We are now testing Linux Mint on it. Flawlessly connected to the internet using UTP cable. However, we haven\'t been able to run its wifi on Linux.

  badnews guys...mukhang deads na ung 721 ko...parang ang sira is ung vidcard..pag on ko walang response ung screen and biglang init yung sa may fan part nya...anyone had same issue?

• otep_0626 on 08 Sep 11 @ 05:29 PM #

  sa ec13n01i ko sir ganyan din. sobra init tapos one time eh wala na. buti at warranty pa. embedded pa naman ang procie nito. nung napalitan ng motherboard, ayun technically ang aking gateway ec13n01i at isa nang AO721 pero athlon II x2 k325 pa din ang procie.
  
  at para sa heat issue pinalitan ko ng tuniq yung thermal paste ng procie at thermal pad ng gpu at southbridge. binuksan ko ito pagkatapos ng warranty. ayun 45-50 deg ang idle sa room temp at di umaabot sa 70 deg ang temp ko using aida cpu burn test.

  Eto na ata ang pinaka malapit na thread sa question ko. Nakita ko sa isang sho psa filinvest yung Acer Aspire One 722 AMD C50 -1.0Ghz / 4gb rams (not 2gb). 1,800 monthly 12months. Medyo pasok as budget sa for monthly expense. Kaso may mga tanong lang po ako if ever na merong owner nito dito sa thread na ito.
  
  1. 6-cell po yung battery nya, ilang oras po ang tinatagal nya? Yung pinaka matagal nya habang naka wifi po?
  2. Ano po ang mas mabilis? atom dual core n570 1.66 vs AMD C-50 dual-core, 1.0GHz?
  3. Maganda po ba yung VC ng acer 722 na ATI HD6290?
  
  TIA.

  May naka-experience na ba sa inyo na matanggalan ng keytop ng Acer 1551? Halimbawa, natanggal ang keytop ng left click button at lefty arrow key, ano ang pwedeng gawin para magamit ulit ng maayos ang notebook computer?

• drpnhrmny on 23 Nov 11 @ 03:11 PM #

  acer aspire one D257 user. bought my netbook last month. so far it has been serving me well. any feedback from fellow users?
  

  
  
  D257 user here as well!... trial mode ko pa sya... tinanggal ko yung Windows 7 and pinalitan ko ng XP baka bumilis kahit papano... hehehe

• hackett on 31 Dec 11 @ 06:12 AM #

  mga sir d257 user din ako my isue ungnabili ko. mag mainit kusa nalang syang namamatay tpos ung shared videoo nya sa bios di naman mataasan kasi naka lock..pls help naman.

• kenshinflyer_2 on 31 Dec 11 @ 06:57 AM #

  Wow, meron pala talagang dedicated page na ganito. Meron akong AAO521, using it as a class record and part-time games machine: OK namang gamitin dito ang mga 2D arcade emulators. Kaya ding patakbuhin ang mga 3D arcade emulator, pero mabagal--kumpara sa mga Atom, that simply won\'t run it. Yun nga lang, parang magna-NUM LOCK yung keyboard matapos gamitan ng LCD projector, and I can\'t edit some PPT/PPTX files on the fly (bakit kaya...?).
  
  Kaya sa amin sa faculty room, dahil karamihan ay naka-Atom, kahit V105 lang ang procie ng AAO521, ako ang may pinakamalakas na netbook! heheheheh What a single-core wonder...

• kenshinflyer_2 on 12 Feb 12 @ 08:11 PM #

  Meanwhile, successfully installed Starcraft (the first one) on my AAO521.

• cooljack on 15 Feb 12 @ 11:20 AM #

  Sana maganda magpagawa ng Keytops at ng Touchpad Click Button ng Acer 1551? Yung relaiable at affordable.
  
  Maluwag na kasi.

• MarkM on 27 Feb 12 @ 09:40 AM #

  Mga sir, i need your help, my gf is a custcare agent at recently lang kelangan nlang maging homebased. Her budget is very limited, kaya i just want to know kung meron bang laptop or netbook under 10k that she can use for the usual call center pc purposes, d din kasi ako familiar sa mga apps na kelangan niya, para sa mga call center agent diyan, kakayanin b yun with the given budget? baka naman meron sa inyo naka try na.
  
  Etong Acer Aspire One yung nakikita kong mukhang magandang bilhin.

  ACER AO722 less than 1 mo old..
  
  Check cable connection!
  PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel PXE ROM.
  No Bootable Device --insert boot disk and press any key
  
  anybody experienced this? looks like sakit ng 722 but i did not get a definite solution online. sending it for warranty. kakainis no return no exchange.

  Hi guys,
  
  Is it worth it to upgrade the Acer 1551 hard drive to SSD?

• kenshinflyer_2 on 21 Apr 12 @ 12:58 PM #

  Hi guys,
  
  Is it worth it to upgrade the Acer 1551 hard drive to SSD?

  
  Okay lang, should you wish.

• sereiuqse on 02 Aug 12 @ 11:23 PM #

  Guys,
  
  wala bang magiging problema ung AO522 ko pag nagupgrade ako ng 4G ram? wala na kasing warranty ito at bunmagal na sya ng maginstall ako ng windows 7 enterprise.
  
  sinu nakapgtry na nito?
  
  magkanu ang upgrade?
  
  thanks.

• kenshinflyer_2 on 03 Aug 12 @ 01:02 AM #

  Pinapahirapan mo lang netbook mo pag nilagyan mo ng Win 7 Enterprise (para na kasing Win 7 Ultimate) yun.
  
  I have 2GB RAM on my AO521, running on Win7 Home Premium, runs fine. In any case any RAM upgrades cost P1500, depende sa laki.
