Acer Aspire 5100?
Tuesday, August 18th, 2009☺☻☺☻ asked:
I have a Acer aspire 5100 running Windows Vista Home premuim so it constantly displayes Vista aero glass Which is an amazing picture. But when I bought the laptop 3 months ago the salesmen told me it would get 6 hours of battery life on the factory setting right out of the box and it would 6 hours for 6 monthes then go down 20 minutes every 6 monthes. So I turned it on and it said 2 hours of battery left so i put it on all the eco setting to save more battery and it said 140 minutes. After that I just went with it but then i realized it was going down 20 minutes every 10 minutes I got about 45 minutes on it. I have tryed it every way watching movies leaving it alone no matter what I get 140 minutes out of it. Right now I can not afford another battery and acer will not replace it. And I have the computer on the most power saving energy settings. I dont know if it could be the aero glass taking up somuch power but I cant turn aero. By the way I have a ATI 1100.
