16-Mar-2008 braddo: is there any way i could upgrade my GPU i allready own this laptop but it dose struggle with the high demanding settings.

Easycom: Unfortunately the 7000M in this laptop is integrated with the nVidia 610 chipset.

17-Mar-2008 Anita: Does this model have a matt or gloss screen? Thanks

Easycom: This laptop uses an Acer CrystalBrite screen, which is a high-gloss screen.

28-Mar-2008 asu: Hi do you provide XP drivers if I was to install XP professional on it?

Easycom: Sorry we donot provide.

4-May-2008 LinBin528: I have just purchased this laptop and i want to install an internal bluetooth module. I can't find any compatibility notes on your site, so could you please tell me which type i will need. Thanks.

Easycom: Sorry we donot have internal bluetooth module however we have external usb bluetooth adapter (VB-3881 - http://lduk0.easycom.co.uk/Veho_USB_Bluetooth_Adapter_VB-3881/version.asp). you just need to plug it in the usb port and your laptop will become bluetooth enabled.

26-Jun-2008 weejohnathon: hi i was wondering if this laptop would be able to play the sims 2 and i was also wondering if you are getting the acer aspire 5520g thanks

Easycom: You'd be better of with a better graphics card for gaming. We dont have a due date on the Aspire 5520G just yet.

19-Jul-2008 starseeker-enterprise: I'm looking to not only use a laptop for playing music on, but for creating DVDs for slideshows and film editing (not High Def at this time). Would this laptop be okay or which one would.

Easycom: For video editing you will benefit a lot from a large HDD, a powerful dual-core processor, a lot of memory and a capable graphics card. I recommend a 7720G as it meets all of this criteria - LX.ALN0X.488

19-Jul-2008 flloyd: Does it come with an adaptor and power cord

Easycom: Yes.

20-Jul-2008 CMJ: I am looking for a desktop replacement to primarily run my family tree software. The requirements of the software are: 300MHz CPU Pentium, XP Home Edition, 64MB of RAM, 150MB free hard drive space prior to installation, 2 x CD-ROM drive or faster and it must be part of the system and no accessed via a network, 640 x 480 display, 256 colours or higher, video capture and sound board and a CD-R or CD-RW for backing up files, printer port, parallel port and 1-2 USB ports. Would this laptop be suitable to run this software or could you recommend one please.

Easycom: Those system requirements are very old, this laptop is many times more powerful than the requirements, however it would be wise to check with the makers of the software that it supports windows vista. Even if it doesnt officially, the chances are it will run fine on it anyway.

25-Jul-2008 Petr: Hi, does come laptop with drivers on cd/dvd and with installation of vista on cd/dvd? Thank you

Easycom: All that will either be on disc or on a separate hard drive partition. Anything on a partition can easily be burned to a disc.

27-Jul-2008 IHATECHEESE: Would a webcam be compatible with this laptop? Thanks.

Easycom: Yes.

26-May-2010 Neil1224: What about using it for photography,photoshop etc NOT video

simon: It will run Photoshop

25-Nov-2007 dave: would this laptop be ok to play games like call of duty ect?

Easycom: This should be fine for gaiming however may struggle with high demanding settings.

26-Nov-2007 Grizzo: Is this suitable for playing movies & playing games? Will i need more memory as Vista uses 1 gig?

Easycom: This would be fine for watching movies, for the latest games i would recommend looking at a better graphics card. The memory should be fine, however would improve performance with more memory.

29-Nov-2007 Dean: Does this laptop have a built-in webcam?

Easycom: Unfortunatly it doesn't have a webcam.

29-Nov-2007 Rob: I have just had this laptop delivered and it does not appear to have a built in webcam - have I been sent the correct model?

Easycom: This model does not have a webcam

6-Dec-2007 Jack: I am looking at either the Aser 7520 or 9304. Can you tell me which would be better for somebody who loves playing Sims 2 plus alot of the expansion packs and listening to music and watching DVD's. If it is the 7520 how much would it cost to fit an upgrade to the present graphics card and double the hard drive size?

Easycom: Both laptops would be fine however I would say the 7520 due to the graphics card. Unfortunately it isn't possible to upgrade the graphics card, you could add an external hard drive.

10-Dec-2007 giny: does this machine come with wifi built in? can i play + and - on the dvd burner/player?

Easycom: yes it does have built in wireless. The DVD drive, will play and write to DVD+ and DVD-

12-Aug-2008 tw: will this game be able to play crysis (pc game)

Easycom: Hmmm, I would suggest calling our sales team for more information on laptops with higher spec graphics cards. It may play but it is one of the most graphically intensive games on the market and that graphics card is not the latest so doesn't support Direct X 10.

29-Nov-2007 umesh: Product summary says first its has AMD Turion 64 X2 Dual Core processor but then it says AMD Athlon 64 TK-55 ??? what does it mean???

Easycom: The processor is the AMD Athlon 64 TK-55.

30-Nov-2007 Steve: does the laptop have onboard graphics or is it a graphics card?

Easycom: It is a dedicated graphics card

1-Dec-2007 nick: is ita duel processor or not

Easycom: Yes it is a dual core processor.

27-Aug-2008 YanS: Hi, can u clarify whether the AMD Athlon 64 TK-55 processor on this laptop performs better than the Intel Celeron class of processors, or are amd athlon and intel celeron processors of equivalent standard? Also, it says free delivery for this laptop, till when does this offer hold? Does it require an additional accessory to be purchased? Finally, instead of 2 x 512 mb ram, can 1 x 1Gb ram module be shipped with this model instead? Thanx

Easycom: First, the AMD processor is a dual core whereas the celeron chip is a single core so AMD wins on that basis. Second, the free delivery is subject to you buying an accessory with the laptop and third, the ram is already fitted by the time we receive it but please call our sales team for prices on upgrading the ram. Hope this helps.
