If it says so ..it does not mean you do not have it ..but probably it is just not enabled or uninstalled ..so my advice is to use the disk for drivers and install the TV tuner again and than try again .If you do not have the drivers get them from the support site ..I know for sure the TV tuner driver is present there..

SOURCE: I have an acer aspire

I am not sure what Freeview is, but Windows Media Center has a TV program built into it. Turn on Windows Media Center, go to the options section, and run the TV setup. Once you have TV working, just watch it in WMC.

If you don't want to do that, from the phrasing of your question, this should still solve the problem with freeview.

SOURCE: Is the HDMI connection on

As far as I am aware they are out. Check in your manual or go online to Acer's web site and download an electronic manual.
Hope this helps.

SOURCE: I want to run a live TV threw my acer aspire Z5700

Hello booche!
Directv provide free software so that you can stream live TV over your home network from your Directv Receiver to your computer. I think given the particular model of All-In-One you are using, this is perhaps the simplest and best option for you.
Here is a direct link to the Directv website page which gives detailed instructions: http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/content/directv/technology/directv2pc
I hope this works for you!

What type of connection do I need to be able to connect an ariel to the Acer Aspire Z5700 PC Desktop to use the on borad tv tuner and where can I purchase it?

to use the on board tv tuner you just need to add the tv cable to the tuner ..and after that scan the signal with the program for the tv tuner..and fix the channels..
basically the tv tuner transforms a monitor into a tv ..but it is operated from the special program for it ..and it has all functions like a normal tv ..After tuning the channels and all you can operate it from the remote ..most tv tuners have one ..

I've lost my Acer Aspire Z5710 dongle. Is it possible to find some other USB device to connect existing keyboard and mouse? Maybe there're any third-party compatible dongle manufacturer?

Why can't you just connect the keyboard and mouse to the usb ports on the machine?
You should be able to find the part on ebay or Acer parts for that matter.
I hope this helped.
Good luck and have a fantastic day.

Hi.

The all-in-one desktop computer supports digital and analog signals. You will need a standard aerial for this (one that is mounted on your roof or the side of your building).
If you are trying a cable which receives cable TV then that will not work.

Does the acer aspire z5700 desktop have a built in wifi router or do i need to purchase and set up a router to enable home sharing network?

While it doesn't have a built-in router, it DOES have a wireless adapter built in. So if you were to purchase your own router (or rent one from your ISP), the computer would work fine with it.
More details on your computer here:
