Where do I find the built in webcam on my acer veritron desktop Z290G Could it be that the driver is very old. i can't find how to turn the webcam on. I see the hold part where the webcam should be on

You may not even have a camera because it is not in the hold part. Anyway, if you do find it, you can download the latest drivers from your computer manufacturer's site.

How to factory reset without recovery disk

When you need to recover part or all of the files on your Acer Veriton M460 desktop computer, Acer makes it easy to do by offering a built-in recovery program called eRecovery Management. This option uses clean operating system files, usually stored on a separate partition of your hard drive, to correct errors or return the system to its original factory settings. You can also use this program to write separate hard copies of the eRecovery program onto CDs or DVDs in case of hard drive failure. Create Backup Disks If your M460 did not come with separate recovery disks, and many machines don't in recent years, you can create your own through "Acer's eRecovery Management" program located under the "Start" menu. Click on "Backup," select "Create Factory Default Disk" and follow the on-screen directions. The program will inform you of the number of CDs or DVDs you need and help you through their creation. Recovery with Disks To use your created disks for recovery, place the first disk in the optical drive and reboot the system. As it boots, hold the "ALT" key and tap "F10" repeatedly until the computer boots and you see a screen titled "Starting Acer eRecovery." You will see three options for recovery: to factory default, from user backup or from CD/DVD. Choose the option you desire and follow the on-screen directions to initiate the recovery sequence. Recovery from the Hard Drive Since Acer places the eRecovery Management program directly onto the computer, you can run the recovery option while in your desktop. Open the "Acer eRecovery Management" program under the "Start" menu and click "Restore." You can choose to restore the computer to factory defaults and lose all the personal data stored on the hard drive or only restore the operating system and leave your data intact. Select "Yes" on the confirmation screen and then "OK" to start the program. Recovery Vs. Restore When performing computer problem solving, the term "recovery" is often used interchangeably with the word "restore." In some cases, "recovery" can mean to simply correct problems, such as replacing corrupted operating system files with good ones. The term can also refer to "recovering" the system to its fresh-from-the-factory state, which is what "restore" means as well. Restore Drivers or Applications Acer's eRecovery Management program also offers the option to reinstall drivers or applications, which could become corrupted or damaged over time. This option allows you to replace the current drivers for your Windows operating system with the ones originally installed on your system. Under the "Restore" tab of the "Acer eRecovery Management" program, click "Reinstall Drivers or Applications" to see the content list and select the files you'd like to recover. http://supportforacer.iyogi.com/veriton/factory-settings-6.html http://support.acer.com/acerpanam/desktop/0000/Acer/AspireE360/AspireE360faq40.shtml http://support.acer.com/product/default.aspx?modelId=477

Why does the belkin guest access page appear? Have had PC for over 2 years and last week this page started to appear for the first time.

There is an option in your router to disable that option. You have to get into the settings for the router you have. Typically you can open up a web browser and type 192.168.2.1 and it should give you a log in window. If you have not set an admin password for the router just leave it blank and hit ok. Look on the left column to find "guest access". Click on that and you will see the option to click disable. Hope this helps

How do i install an ssd to replace hard drive

The drives will usually come with a utility to copy your old drive to the SSD and make the SSD the bootable drive. You just need to have both drives connected at the same time. Check for download instructions in the packaging with the drive or check the manufacturers website.

Why blinking yellow light and green light infront of cpu

Check if the signal cable for the display is connected and whether there is any kink that may break a wire inside the cable. If the circuit for display inside the computer is broken, most of the time you would hear beeping when turning on the computer.

Will not power up after power outage

Sometimes before the power goes out, there's a power surge. Not always, but a lot of times. This could be tricky, but worth a shot. Look on the back of your power supply where the power cable plugs in. Look to see if there is a switch that's been flipped so that it's turned off. Some power supplies have breaker switches. If it's turned on, try a different outlet you know works. If that still doesn't fix the issue, then you may have a blown fuse. Typically, there are only four screws on the back of the case holding your power supply in. Pull your power supply out and take it apart. Don't yank on anything. Look for the fuse. sometimes it's a clear one that you can just look at. Sometimes it's one of those annoying ceramic fuses and it's just white in the middle. To see if that's blown, there are a few methods. First is to use a multimeter if you have one. Set it to Ohms (resistance) and put a probe on either side of the fuse. Doesn't matter if it's in circuit or not. (Still plugged in or pulled out.) If you see infinite resistance, that means the circuit is open and the fuse is blown. Be sure to replace it with the same kind of fuse. There are stipulations where another type/spec would work, but for the sake of simplicity, just getting the exact same fuse is alot easier. If you don't have a multimeter, there are other ways of checking. The first one is a voltage tester. You can get these for a few dollars just about anywhere. Get a battery too. Doesn't matter what kind it is as long as it's not a button battery. Now you're going to make a circuit here. First, put the probes of the voltage tester on either side of the battery to make sure it lights up. If it doesn't, then either the battery is dead, or if you have a voltage tester with a LED, then you've got it hooked up backwards. Once you get a good light from the battery, then it's time to test the fuse. Put one probe on one end of the fuse and the other probe on one end of the battery. Then have a wire going from the other end of the battery to the other end of the fuse. Or just push that end of the battery to the free end of the fuse. This is where it's super handy to have four hands. Again, make sure if you have an LED tester, that it's going the right way. May have to flip the battery around a few times to make sure it's all working. If you've done this and the light is on, then your fuse is good. If the light is off then the fuse is bad. If the fuse is good, then you've got bigger problems. If you don't have a multimeter or a voltage tester, then there's an even cheaper way to test a fuse. Get a 9 Volt battery. Touch one end to one of the metal ends of the fuse and slowly touch the other terminal to the opposite end of the fuse. If it's a good fuse, you will see a spark. You may have to turn the lights out and put on your grandpa glasses to see it. If you can't for the life of you get a spark, then most likely the fuse is bad. Or the battery is dead, again. Make sure it's either new or out of something that was working at full power at the time you pulled it out. I really hope for your sake the fuse is blown. That's the cheapest easiest fix for this problem ever. If that's not the case, let me know and I'll walk you through how to test your power supply without needing the computer to turn it on.
