    It looks like Acer 4810T requires a BIOS upgrade (to V1.31 and not 2.31) to solve the DVD detect. Intel Chipset driver (update) cause repeat error message in regards to drive 0.
    Now that I have DVD working again, I will take your advice on clean install with Win7.

    Thanks,
    V2.30 and V2.31 are for the "special edition" 2009...
    V1.30 and V1.31 are for normal Aspire 4810T, TG, TZ, TZG Timeline.

    My question is:

    I've got the V1.28 bios version. I've tried to install the both V1.3 versions but it tells me it is not made for mine...luckily it stops the install by itself, if it sees wrong.

    Did someone succeed this Bios V1.3 install before i get in touch with the support?

    Thank you!

    NEW version of the JM41 Bios V1.30 and V1.31 had been put yesterday (Jan 27, 2010) on Acer site!!


    Looks the 2009 versions V1.30 and V1.31 were not working properly and was upgrading from JM41 to AA, instead Both JM41 bios firmware.

    As usual be careful when upgrading your Bios options!:)

    Yes, much safer to Update BIOS from Windows.

    WinTel camp still does not get it


    I tried to get MS to make sure Windows Vista introduction was customer friendly. Years later, it looks like MS and partners still do not understand concept of "customer friendly". I noted I gave up on Acer and MS.
    Time to look at Apple.

    I'm not taking the cause for Acer but at least they did realise those drivers were wrong...

    I've got home premium x64 and to replace "bitlocker" on Pro & Ultimate they did insert a little software call "MyWinLocker"... Others are also here to make it easy & handy with Win7, like:
    "Grid Vista", "ePower management", "eBackup Manager"...and a huge gaming zone.

    Humm well, i almost think after few tweaks i can make a Home premium as the Professional version...!
    I simply Like Win7 at the moment (and tested of some of those RC1 since few month), because it does have no conflicts on this machine...
