Hi.

Sure you can with a standard VGA video cable.

Maybe you will have to change your screen resolution to get the best display layout.

Hope it helps!

Frequently ACER ASPIRE ONE A110 and A150 hang and give a black screen of death. Most probably this is due to the BIOS problems and if you want to boot them again, a BIOS updating is required.
First, download the required BIOS from the Acer site:http://gd.panam.acer.com/home/ and unzip it by another computer. (Your netbook is already dead!)

Among the extracted files and folders, there is a folder namely Dos_Flash. Open it and there are four file items there like "3310, 3310.fd, FLASHIT, and readme.
Now rename 3310.fd as ZG5IA32.fd and FLASHIT as FLASHIT.EXE and keep the rest as they are.
Copy all these four files to a fully formated and blank USB stick. In this USB stick there should be no other files or folders than what you copied now ( 3310, ZG5IA32.fd, FLASHIT.EXE, readme )

Keeping this USB stick in hand go to the dead netbook. Switch off the device if it is already on. Insert the USB stick. Having the AC power and the battery connected to the device press and hold FN+Esc and simulatneously press the power button to turn on the netbook.
Release the FN and Esc buttons after a few seconds and now the power button will be blinking. In this stage press once the power button alone.
Now the device will start updating the BIOS, we can see the process as the LED of the USB stick flashes. In a few minutes-say less than 10 minutes-the system will restart and come to life again.
Don't disturb it during this process and wait until it comes to full level of operational condition to remove the USB stick.

Best of luck,

When the acer screen comes up press alt+F10, if it doesn't work then you need to restart your computer again, load the BIOS and enable it.

You have two problems and they are separate issues.
First your battery is nearly worn out. Rechargeable batteries have a finite number of charge and discharge cycles and as the battery ages the charge capacity will drop. When the battery is worn out, it may not charge at all or show it is 100% charged but when you remove the AC power the laptop will shut off because the battery is dead. A new battery is required to fix this problem.

Second when you connect the AC adapter into the laptop's power socket, and the screen flickers and the charge LED also flicks, it means the power socket is faulty or the power socket has a dry solder joint connection to the motherboard. If you hold the power plug in a particular position you should notice the charge LED will stay on without flickering as well as the LCD screen.
This fault can be repaired, but it requires the laptop to be dismantled completely to access the power socket. I suggest you get a quote first.

"I got somebody to replace the screen for me and it was working until now" this more likely affects your warranty as the warranty seal is tampered..
What did the guy do to get it right did you replace something or just got it serviced..??
I don't user acer but my friend had problems with his lap DVD drive n got replacement. It took 2 weeks though

Ok if its brandnew and within warranty contact the seller. This should not be happening, to early to give you problem like this.
