Software should have been installed for it at the factory, but also may be on a setup disk that came with it. I can't tell you what the name of the software is, because that changes rapidly. Or, you can go on line to Acer, give model of computer, and see a support page for all the features.

Acer Aspire 6930 laptop

Posted on 20:34 by Unknown

How can I actually get my Acer laptop to start up properly?
I have an Acer Aspire 6930 laptop, and I'm unable to get onto my computer. When I turn it on, I get a screen that says 'Windows Error Recovery'. I have launched startup repair, tried F2, F8 and F10, and nothing works. Can't even get it started in safe mode. Is there something I can do?

Reinstall windows, put the CD in the drive and boot from CD

Don't buy Acer again. Smash this one with a rock, it will make you feel better

I have an Acer laptop and if yours is anything like mins it won't have come with a CD. When booting hold Atl and press F10. This will access a hidden partition and reinstall to factory settings.
4 :
In simple terms its 'jammed up' -Take the battery out - connect battery charger adaptor to LT - switch on mains power (with the battery still out) - Press the centre start button and hold it down for 10 seconds and release then hold it down for another 15 seconds (its all done on modes hold down so long for this and that). When it starts up - put the battery back in with the mains power still on - you won't get an electric shock or anything because your only pushing the battery back in the slot - don't drop the LT - and your away. What you've done is give the 'inside' and the battery a power jolt - because things are 'sticking inside' (simple terms) they all do it from time to time.

You could opt for reformatting your laptop but there is the risk of losing your files and documents. Better let a technician do the troubleshooting for you. Let him give you other options of fixing your laptop.If your warranty still works, use it to cover the expense.

Press F8 at start up to enter start options, choose last know good configuration or safe mode with networking. The operating system has corrupt start up files, copy and save any thing of importance for later use. Do a system repair or install using built in recovery by pressing F 10 at start up. Order a set of system recovery disc by model and serial number to do a system repair or install from: http://support.acer.com/Default.aspx under additional resources.

i had a similar problem with my desktop. it turned out that the hard drive broke. it made a clicking noise then restarted over and over again. if it's not a hardware problem, then the files that are required to boot a computer are corrupted. use a boot disc if this is the case.
3 :
I am sorry but I am positive that it is system corrupt files that is giving you trouble. You said that pressing any keys won't do anything, so there is no way that you can start your computer in safe mode, or do any system recovery. If you are not able to turn on your computer then probably you won't be able to back up your files. So, you need to perform a clean setup, go to your vendor if you can't. And for the next time, do NOT open any unknown websites, there are viruses, mal-ware, and stuffs like that that corrupts your computer and makes it useless, try string Anti-Virus software. This happens a lot. So you should not get exposed with harmful sites, for now, you definitely need to start clean setup.

There is a Fn key that needs to be enabled for it to work. Check all the Fn keys out. One should look like a number pad
2 :
there is a fn and then numb lock (paddlelock) press them at the same time
3 :
You have to turn on num lock and the fn key is for the feature on a key like on my F8 I have brightness up when I press F8 and fn key brightness will go up. If you can't work the num key then use the on screen keyboard. VIEW ON SCREEN KEYBOARD VISTA 1. CLICK ON START AND IN THE SEARCH BOX TYPE ON SCREEN KEYBOARD AND LINK WILL APPEAR. IN XP 1. CLICK START 2. ALL PROGRAMS AND ACCESSORIES 3. GO TO ASSECBILITY AND SELECT ON SCREEN KEYBOARD.
