I have two 2 GB memory blocks and would like to install them in my M5100 - is that possible?
SOURCE: i have jus brought a
I have just spoken with Acer Support, and where M5100's have dedicated graphics cards, this disables the onboard graphics including the HDMI.
The onl way to eabl the HDMI is to remove the dedicated graphics card, and revert to shared graphics which will enable HDMI. The problem with this, according to the support technician, is that it will slow the computer down considerably.
Why the hell do Acer do this? They must know this is an issue in the first place; absolute idiots.

Hi:
Often, just dust can make fans noisy. You can unplug everything, take the side cover off of your tower, and blow it out with a can of the air duster you can buy at a computer store, paying close attention to the fans. If you are not comfortable with this, a local shop should be able to clean it up for you for not a lot of cash, and if a fan is really bad, they could identify which one it is for you too.

Try to check all the connection at the back of your pc,, try to unplug and open your cpu case,,, Maybe your Power cord is not properly installed .. find the power supply port in the motherboard and try to check it again if it is properly installed

Knowing the model of the mobo will not do anything if you know it takes
DDR2 5300.
And you can find tons of 1GB,2GB,4GB sticks.
If you want to know what memory MFG are compatible with you system
go to the Acer website.
As you can see at the website I posted below there are a lot of memory you can get.
Here are 12 different brands of 5300 2GB sticks of memory.
If your sure the motherboard takes 5300.

Testimonial: "fast and easy help, thanks guys"
Dual-channel architecture requires a dual-channel-capable motherboard and two or more DDR, DDR2 SDRAM, or DDR3 SDRAM memory modules. The memory modules are installed into matching banks, which are usually color coded on the motherboard. These separate channels allow each memory module access to the memory controller, increasing throughput bandwidth. It is not required that identical modules be used, but this is often recommended for best dual-channel operation. It is possible to use a single-sided module of 512 MB and a double-sided module of 512 MB in dual-channel configuration, but how fast and stable it is depends on the memory controller.
If the motherboard has two pairs of differently colored DIMM sockets (the colors indicate which bank they belong to, bank 0 or bank 1), then one can place a matched pair of memory modules in bank 0, but a different-capacity pair of modules in bank 1, as long as they are of the same speed. Using this scheme, a pair of 1 GB memory modules in bank 0 and a pair of matched 512 MB modules in bank 1 would be acceptable for dual-channel operation.
Modules rated at different speeds can be run in dual-channel mode, although the motherboard will then run all memory modules at the speed of the slowest module. Some motherboards, however, have compatibility issues with certain brands or models of memory when attempting to use them in dual-channel mode. For this reason, it is generally advised to use identical pairs of memory modules, which is why most memory manufacturers now sell "kits" of matched-pair DIMMs. Several motherboard manufacturers only support configurations where a "matched pair" of modules are used. A matching pair needs to match in.
Good luck
