Forgot supervisor BIOS password Aspire E 15 E5-573 39K5

Forgot supervisor BIOS password on Aspire E 15 E5-573 39K5 (manufacture date Aug, 15 2015). I did set the PW, successfully accessed all BIOS functions yesterday, changed the PW and must have mistyped. Am able to login to BIOS using User PW where it only allows changing the date/time. I forgot/mistyped the HDD PW too and it says "Frozen" in the User BIOS screen. Only answers I've found yet get past User PW by entering code displayed after enter wrong User PW three times. I am the legitimate, registered, paid-for-it owner of the laptop and can prove that on paper. I registered it with Acer by serial number the date I bought it. I have not called Acer support yet and don't want to (I'm afraid they'll say "send it in" - the reason I'm avoid that is it's my only computer and can't be without it for a week - I am not avoiding proving legal ownership).

Acer aspire E1 boot problems

I have a great laptop of which i had the pleasure of using for 2 years, but today when i tried to use my laptop it seem to freeze on the windows 10 login screen. 

When connecting a external mouse and keyboard only the mouse seems to work. the keyboard seem not to work at all. I have some knowledge with computers, being an IT student so i have tried to work with the software but it seems to be closed of pretty well. i don't want to install a different kind of windows because of the possibility of losing the functions of the extra buttons.

is there any way i can get my laptop to work again for as it seems to me to be a software problem.

E642 starting up with black screen, how do I fix it properly, not just the temporary fix???

My laptop has been starting up with a black screen.  As I am studying online, you can understand why I had a heart attack the first time it happened.  I googled it and tried all the solutions on the net; with the holding the power button down without the battery and power cord in, to drain the excess power, worked after about 20 tries.  I had to turn it off to take it to the library for quiet time without my 4 year old, and when I tried turning it back on, it did the same thing.  Again, after about 20 goes of draining it (and getting a massive stress headache), it turned back on. MY QUESTION IS... 

WHAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED SO THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN? WHAT IS THE MAIN CAUSE OF IT? 

Thanks so much in advance. Any help will be much appreciated as I do not have a back up computer or money to get a new one!

Acer Aspire Laptop touchpad won't show up in hardware after system recovery

I have Acer Aspire laptop E1-531-2892, it was running Windows 7,  recently my hardrive let go, I was able to install a new harddrive with recovery disk.  It's now up and running again BUT the touchpad doesn't work.  It doesn't show up in devices / hardware.  Which seems to be a regular problem with Acer laptops.  I tried the Function key and f7 which makes no difference.  I tried re-installing the driver no change and it appears when doing that it doesn't even know it's there. There is no setting in BIOS to turn touchpad on or off.  And I feel every message board, but have not found the right one yet.  HELP - going nuts.

I realy have no clue what is should do...

Someone help me Smiley Sad

I have lost some of the screws from the underside of my Acer Aspire M5. I believe that this is causing my laptop to randomly lose power when it's not connected to the charger. Does anybody know the size of the screws on the underside of the M5?

Windows10 Recovery USB Media/Drive - Control Panel ( Backup & Restore )

Windows10 Recovery USB Media/Drive - Control Panel ( Backup & Restore )

 

      I have upgraded to Windows 10 from Widows 8.1 (pre-installed) , on my "ACER Aspire E1 472P- 6491" laptop by taking advantage of the free upgrade offer and successfully activated Windows 10 . I do not have a Windows (8.1 or 10) product key , as the Windows was pre-loaded on the laptop .

       Now I want to make a " Windows10 Recovery Drive ", which can be used later to boot/re-instal Windows10 in case my Laptop fails to boot or to reset/troubleshoot any problems on Windows10 . Accordingly I tried to Create Factory Default Backup via Control Panel ( Backup & Restore ) option, but I found that it is meant for Windows 7 or 8.1 only ( which means that the system can be recovered back to Windows 7 or 8.1 only – not Windows 10 ) .

       I am surpised as to why Backup & Restore is meant for Windows 7 only , when I have upgraded to Windows 10 already . In fact I have upgraded to Windows 10 from Widows 8.1 ( not Windows 7 ), then why it is taking me back to Windows 7 ? Can I not create a Recovery USB Media/Drive Backup for Windows10 for future use , after I have upgraded to Windows 10 ? If not , then how to make a Windows10 Recovery USB Media/Drive .

       I expect some Microsoft representative to reply & explain on the following points –

a) After upgradation to Windows 10 , why Control Panel ( Backup & Restore ) option is meant for Windows 7 ( or 8.1 ) recovery .

b) How to create Windows10 Recovery USB Media/Drive Backup that will work to boot/re-instal Windows10 in case my Laptop fails to boot in future .

        Thanks in advance . ===============================================================================================================

Aspire E1-571 Games stuttering, FPS drops and lagging

Hi everyone,

 

The problem is, i upgraded my laptop to windows 10 from Windows 7. Installed updates and everything, but when i play games, the game starts freezing, FPS drops, and starts stuttering. Even GTA San Andreas worked perfectly, at 80-90 FPS with ENB series, now i am getting 60-40 FPS, depending on the location. But when i play SA-MP, it sometimes starts lagging as hell, i played GTA IV, 60-70 FPS, now the GTA IV lags as hell, i used to play War-face, 50-65 FPS, now it lags as hell. I thought the games lags because of over-heating, i bought the extra fan for it, whenever i play any games, the laptop doesn't gets hot, it doesn't over-heats.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thank you!
