This is a really common problem thats not actually a problem.
Go to trackpad settings and make sure tap to click is off.
Most laptops allow you to tap the track pad to act as a mouse button, try it go to an icon tap the trackpad youll see that the icon highlights as if you are actually left clicking.
When your typing the trackpad senses your arm or wrist occasionaly and thinks your tapping the mouse, thus moving the cursor.
So go into trackpad settings and turn off tap to click.

If they just Suddenyl stoppe din the middle of listening then theres probably a hard ware problem and you cant really fix a audio card in a laptop becasue its all built into the mainboard so your probably out of luck.

Im asumeing you checked all the audio settings.

Sometimes on the inside of the laptop the speakers plug into the mainboard with a little wiresing harness that clips on, it may be that it jarred loose, you could try taking the laptop apart and messing with it, but only if you are confident in taking a laptop apart. Theers alot of lisstle plasice pieces and fragile parts inside that dont take kindly to being tugged or pulled on.

Sounds like you have short circuited your Motherboard badly. This will generally cause laptops to quit functioning at all. Get it replaced. Really is the only option.

Hope This Helps

Make sure memory is in properly and lcd cable is plugged properly.

Bad ac adapter .You need a new one.

Well the Acer site says that it has built-in bluetooth!(Aspire 1690) If you go to device manager (Right click on my computer, click on manage. Under System Tools in the left pane click on device manager) you should see one of the device categories there as Bluetooth, if you don't see it and see a yellow icon that means you might need to install the bluetooth drivers! If you don't either you might need another component(bluetooth hardware) for the bluetooth to work! hope this was helpful regards, babb

the easiest thing to do is run this programme from Crucial, it tells you the type of memory fittted and the max you can fit exactly.

Then go to control panel,system ,hardware ,device manager option
There if u find any question mark or exclamation mark in yellow Color that means sound drivers are not installed properly
please reinstall sound drivers properly

or else

If no question mark or exclamation mark then check the cable connections of the speaker to the machine

or else

In control panel , select sound audio devices open it there u have
volume,sounds,audio,voice,hardware options

1)See whether it is mute
2)In audio option select default audio device and recording device
should be same

this should solve u r problem .if it is not solved please let me know u r problem briefly

or else put the model number and brand name followed by drivers search in ww.google.com

ok..tha'ts in control panel...wireless setup...follow that wizard, and you'll be good to go.

did you use a clean install or try repair recovery method I recommend a complete reinstall after formatting hard drive (partition hard drive) so that later your files on 2nd partition are not lost. The reason i say this it is quicker and easier than buggering around tying to fix it also you have the original disks for your computer

back up your personal info, pictures, docs, all that you need conserve. Format the computer and install english operating system.
Good Luck

plzz check with some other SD Card and if that card also doesnt works with it than plzz check the drivers for the SD Flash

it's easy to add memory.
Just open the door on the back of your laptop.
You can see 2 slots of memory.
Make sure that you know the type of your memory for your laptop. I believe is DDR (not DDR2).

if your laptop not charging better change the ac adaptor to charge but if your laptop not booting but the charger charge the the laptop the problem is you motherboard just try to reset you CMOS then try to boot again

cause when you lock in a rating, it's off the list to consider..that's why most experts are NOT providing a free solution, until after getting an answer or two.

what sort of wireless card does that carry. Sometimes it's easier to get the right drivers from that website, instead of through the OEM computer folks.

sure..the speakers are toast, or the connection is fractured. You may be able to inspect the connection by removing the keyboard, but it's usually buried under the palm rest.

got backup?

you need to contact acer support to get your bios pswd reset
