    My Problems with Window 7


    Hello guys,

    I have bought an Acer laptop with Window 7 last week and I really wish I hadn't now...

    Problems so far:

    1. It loses connection after half an hour and the wireless device adaptor or whatever it's called does not show any connections available (not just mine one..)

    2. I cannot wach youtube because it does not download Adobe flash player...

    Can anyone help please?

    Thanks a million!

    1) Take laptop back to retail for replacment.

    2) Are you downloading from Abobe web site?

    hmm.. yeah, it sort of sounds like a potential issue with that wireless card. All of my seven machines stay connected no problem. With what browser are you trying to install adobe flash?

    Re: Flash, are you running a 32 or 64 bit system? If you're running 64, then you'll have to open a 32 bit browser and install Flash within it, as there is currently no 64 bit Flash available.
    Windows has a built in 32 bit version of IE 8, or you could download Firefox, always a great browser.
