Refurbished Acer Ferrari 3400 overheating, August 5, 2005
This review is from: Growing up Girls from Enesco Brunette Age 7 Figurine 4.5 IN (Kitchen)
I received my refurbished ferrari, and after one day of trying to set it up to my liking, I sent it back to Acer for repair. Thank Goodness for the 90 day warranty, and will probably buy an extended warranty. The laptop would get very very hot (even though I could hear the fan running) and shut down after 5-10 minutes of use. This killed any processes that were running, and resulted in multiple "blue screens of death" regarding fat32 errors. It wouldn't stay running long enough to even re-build the system using the restore CDs.
I also didn't have any luck connecting to my linksys 802.11b network. I could using a USB adaptor, but not with the internal wi-fi. Asked for acer to check that as well.
It's been 4 days that acer has had it so far, and haven't had a response other than for a confirmation that they received it. Hopefully a repair will fix the problem.
