Acer Aspire One 6 Cell Battery Problem

I received a 6 cell Acer branded battery for my fabulous Aspire One (512, linpus, 8gb) for Christmas.After inserting it, plugging the lead into the Acer and then plugging the charger into and switching on the mains the battery light stays orange for a while but then starts flashing. It flashes even after being left on charge all night.The light continues to flash orange when the Ones power button is pressed.If I try to use it on battery there's nothing. It doesn't power on at all, no lights.I've tried switching the power off, removing the battery, reinserting it and following the above proceedure and the same thing happens.Trying the old battery is fine the green light comes on as usual so I know it's not the One. I'm at a loss.Please help me. I adore my beloved One, it's used more than my 3 months old 2.5 dualcore 4gb ram HP running Vista Ultimate. By choice!Clive Carrington

You got a bad battery. If your old battery works fine, and the new one wont hold a charge, Take it back to the store and get another.

I have an acer aspire one netbook KAV60 (japanese keyboard) that needs a new battery. This battery is UM08A41 (2200). I think it is a 3 cell. Can I interchange it with a 9 cell? Also, is the UM08A71 the...

The UM08A41 is a 9 cell battery
The UM08A71 is a 6 cell battery
Both of these batteries will fit your notebook but the A41 will last longer than the A71 battery. These notebooks are produced to be very inexpensive and the 6 cell batteries are usually in there to save money. A 9 cell battery is a common upgrade.

How many hours battery life for the Acer Aspire one KAV10 netbook when fully charged

The Acer Aspire One KAV10 Netbook comes with a 3 cell battery. With the 3-cell battery you're going to get less than three hours of run time.
If you need more battery life, you should consider upgrading to a 6, 9 or even 12 cell battery, depending on your needs.

Dead

I've had battery dead problems on my Acer Aspire 3680 to the point where I have had to buy new batteries for it every 6 months to 1.5 years. The original 6 cell battery lasted about 1.5 years. Then, I got a high capacity 9 cell battery that lasted only 6 months off Ebay.com. They accepted it back as a defective battery and I got a partial refund.
I bought a couple more batteries for about $32-$39 a piece. Not a bad investment.

Also, check your charger, but on my Acer I've never had a problem there.

I want to overclock my acer aspire 5050 this the review: * Processor: AMD Turion64 x2 TL-50 (1.6 GHz, 512 KB L2 cache total, 256 KB on each core) * RAM: 1 GB 533 MHz DDR2 RAM (2 x 512 MB) * Hard...

I have the same system too. None of the tuners such as RIVA work well w/ integrated notebook card, and u r graphics card is pretty ghetto. I could however, download POWERSTRIP and tune up a minescule 300-400 MHz but it won't let me access memory clock. More than this I could do no further overclocking.

How to connect LG Arena to Acer Aspire One with Linux linpus?

You need your to connect your Aspire to a network on which there is a device that does have a CD drive. Share the CD drive with the network and you are home free.

That is how I get stuff onto my Aspire One.

As for connecting your cell phone to the device - sorry. I dont know how to do that.

If you need help with sharing your CD device or setting up a network, you can ask Windows how to do that. If you dont have a wireless router, you will need one. Oh yes, and a second computer. IF you dont have a second computer, borow one from a friend.

If you need more help ... Id like to give it a try.

I need to know if i can change my accer notebook linus OS to XP

Hi

The Acer One comes out of the box with a 3 cell battery - you can buy 6 and 9 cell on Ebay.

You can load XP on your netbook and it will work OK with 512MB RAM, but will work better with a 1GB RAM installed as well. To upgrade to XP go to this site, it will give you various options of installing XP.
