Aspire-ations dashed :-(
Hello again and a hearty thanks to all who`ve been so generous with their time and help. I need your insights again.
My Acer Aspire 7535g would be a truly great package if only it did what it said on the lid. After owning it for 10 months I really thought I had it under control but alas and alack this was not to be the case.
This time I`ve noted that whenever I`ve got a game or other piece of software that`s using the graphics card heavily with sounds/music, as soon as the hdd is accessed it seems the sound card starts to play it`s way through memory (Cue awful screetches) and the gfx output slows to 2/3ish fps. Once the hdd has finished being accessed the sound will recover and then gfx output return to normal. All will be fine until the hdd is accessed again when the errors repeat.
I`ve been researching online and I`m not the only one who`s has this problem.Others have said the problem only reared it`s ugly head once they moved from Vista to Win 7, but never having used the machine with Vista I coudn`t say for sure.
Anyway that`s all I have for now. If anyone out there has any idea what`s going on here I`d love to hear from you.
Thanks, yours living in hope, Stoo
