The default is a "blank" password.

This is an indication that either the RAM installed is not being detected or your mainboard is not able to detect the dedicated graphics card. Claim warranty support if available.If your unit is out of warranty then your will want to start by removing the screws that secure the RAM access cover. Once removed, un-clip the RAM module and remove it. Clean the gold fingered connectors with tissue paper. Then reinstall the module.It is a little more difficult getting at the second module as it is usually located beneath the keyboard (unless you see two RAM slots on the underneath of the notebook.)This unit may need to be seen to by a computer technician even though it is a relatively small problem.Take care!damnor01

Hi there. It won't be a bios problem if it allows you to selet the usb to boot from. Sometimes when you try to boot ubuntu off of a usb it gives you a black screen for as long as 2+ minutes. usb drives can be slow but if it still will not boot then it is likely a problem with the boot loader on the usb stick. I would try installing ubuntu to the usb again to see if it works. If it still won't work then there is more than one way to install ubuntu to a usb. Leave a comnent here if you still can't get it to work and i can give you some more instructions of how to make it work. It shouldn't be a problem with your computer though.

Run 'sysprep -factory'

the above application can be found on a Windows XP installation cd-rom under support and inside deploy.cab which can be extracted using windows.

google 'sysprep -factory' for more information.

More like the LCD Inverter Board..a loose connection would not cause that, unless you pulled the video cable by openening and closing the lid, but again that too is highly unlikely..

In most of cases it will involve laptop disassemble. But you could try just to open bottom side of your laptop where Hard Drive and RAM located. And maybe you'll find CMOS battery there

You can find the Bios and the information on the ACER support site:

Hi!
I have the same problem, and my problem was that I have installed 4GB ram and that ram modules wasn't accepted with the new bios. So I installed the old modules and it all worked again, downgraded the bios to one version older and installed my 4GB ram modules and it all worked.

Hope that's your problem too.
Good luck

Probably a Motherboard or a Monitor problem. If it's still in it's warranty, you might consider taking it in for repairs.

1) Go to control panel (either with the help of keyboard or mouse)
2) Open Mouse
3) On Button Tab Select Button Configuration ( Switch Primary and Secondary Buttons)
4) Also Check your Touch Pad Driver Software

Thanking you

I have been fixing computers that has long beeps and short ones. It is usually attributed to memory problem connection. Open the memory compartment at the back of the PC then detach the memory card. Clean with cloth softly enough not to destroy the circuit board or a pencil eraser to clean-up dust that caused the connection blockade. Reconnect after cleaning.

If the correct driver is installed, you should be able to go to my computer, double click to open , and your SD drive should be listed. If not, let me know and we can troubleshoot.

you should use your restore disks and reinstall the operating systems

Its your motherboard. It has crashed and the only way to fix your problems with the hardware is to replace it. Its nothing to do with the cabling, if your hard drive does not start up.
Hope that helps

press ALT + F10 button as soon as PC startup and run recovery console from there. follow the steps to restore PC to factory settings.

1 long and 2 short - indicates avideo error has occurred and the BIOS cannot initialize the video screen todisplay any additional information, Verify your video card.

This beep code is -

one long, two short beeps

• System board failure
• Video adapter problem
• LCD assembly failure

This is most likely a video problem.
Try re-seating the RAM, the video RAM is shared, uses part of the main RAM.
Also try restoring the BIOS setting back to the default settings.
