How do i set up the sound on my stereo and tv. with the acer aspire L310 for saround.

Your computer uses the Integrated Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 3000, which is built into your motherboard. Unfortunately, there are no additional drivers for your computer so performance can not be upgraded, in that sense.

What you can do though is increase the screen resolution (on the desktop and in game settings). This should allow for a sharper, clearer image and a better overall gaming experience

It would help if you use windows 7 ..cause it has the possibility to select the digital out on the sound settings .If you use xp ..you have to open the sound manager and click advanced ..and if it only have the stereo choice t measn the system is not capable to send info in other way ..via hdmi ..and choose stereo ..and select the surround on the tv ..if it is next in line for processing the signal .

Yes. I am currently updating an Acer Aspire L310 (lunchbox format) desktop.

Many of the drivers are contained on the XP installation disk and will automatically be installed when you install XP.

Other Drivers:

Assuming your L310 has the same hardware (may not), you can use the following Hardware detail to locate the drivers by typing in the hardware model into a search engine like Bing.

NIC - Marvell Yukon 88e8056 PCI-e GB; this driver can be downloaded from www.cnet.com. On this website, just type in the model info and it will direct you to the driver download.

Wireless NIC - Broadcom 802.11g; download from www.cnet.com

Display/motherboard chipset - Once you have installed XP and the NIC driver, go to www.intel.com and click on the "downloads/support" option. The website provides an autodetect utility that will identify your hardware and provide updated drivers.

Audio - go to Realtek website and select "downloads". Download/install the high definition audio driver for XP.

Once you are up and running with XP, run the Microsoft Windows Update utility and it will find updates for many of the essential drivers.

uninstall media player and sound drivers and reinstall it

yes

Well Acer doesnt make replacement parts for their machines so you could get lucky and buy a L310 from ebay and i might have working motherboard but have some other component bad so the seller would want to get rid of it for cheap and you could pick up the MB.

So I think it should be ok if run with higher Core2Duo, but I suggest to do bios firmware update before change your processor.

this laptop has 1 mini card slot for optional wireless LAN (selected models) just choose any decent aftermarket wireless g card and it will work , givin it's drivers are installed correctly and the laptop is set to autoconfigure the wi-fi. Most are set like this by default.
you also have a port for rj-45 , so having a 6ft network cable would be handy if you were sonewhere like a hotel which had free internet but no wireless.
