Router is in one room and laptop is in second room. Between the two rooms is a half-meter, concrete wall. All works fine.

I have this problem on Aspire One 725 few times in one day and I fixed this issue.

1. Uninstall all drivers for WiFi (in Device Management too).

2. Reebot PC.

3. Download and install drivers in version 10.0.0.255 (do not use other versions).

4. Control Panel>Device Management>Network adapers then right click on the Qualcom adapter, select properties>power manaugement and uncheck everything.

In four days I have 0 (zero) WiFi disconnections so it works properly

Amen.

Windows 7 version does not matter. Clean Windows 7 is clean Windows 7.

Latest driver date is 2012/12/17 so Acer did not update VGA drivers for AO725 since 1 year so drivers are not up to date. Drivers from AMD site do not works with APU. Why Acer can't release the newest version of the drivers?

I know what system I have: Windows 7 (seven).

I known that drivers for Windows 7 are available on Acer drivers page (version 8.981.0.0000) but this version is bugged (long boot in Windows 7).

Acer would release new, proper drivers or not?

Acer Poland sold Aspire One 725 i two versions:

1. With Windows 8.

2. Without any OS.

I bought this second version.

MrRatio — Mon, 04 Nov 2013 14:01:24 GMT

But I bought AO725 without Operating System (NoOS version), so I must installed my own Windows 7.

So Acer will release new, proper VGA drivers for AO725?

Aspire One 725 have APU AMD C-70. All drivers from AMD site do not works. I checked all. Drivers from AMD site can't detect VGA. Only driver from Acer site can detect VGA. This driver prepare Acer but have long boot bug in Windows 7.

VGA drivers for Acer Aspire One 725 are bad?

Hello.

I bought Acer Aspire One 725 (A1-AO725-C7CBB), installed fresh, valid Windows 7 and nothing else. Next downloaded VGA drivers from acer site and installed it. After that Windows boot 2-3x longer that normal, stuck on Windows 7 logo for ~45 seconds. This issue is on every boot. I removed VGA drivers and boot back to normal.

I format my HDD, reinstalled Windows 7 and again downloaded and installed VGA drivers. Again have long boot, and after removeed VGA drivers boot is ok.

So I think this is fault of bad VGA drivers. Acer will release new VGA drivers for Aspire One 725?

Regards.
