Re: V5-573G Noisy right fan

Someone — Wed, 12 Nov 2014 20:31:34 GMT

Hi. I had a really loud fan issue on this laptop after month of use, so I gave it for repair. After that it's a lot better, but one of the fans still doesn't sound the same as before It may be the same issue. I didn't give it back for repair again because I don't want to wait a full week again, I need my laptop for work. Please, post updates regarding this, especially if you managed to fix this issue. Thanks!

Why don't you get a service repair? Didn't you get a warranty?

HDD issues are not specific to laptop manufacturer, that might happen to any laptop on the market.

Re: Acer V5 really loud fan. No heat issues really. What to do?

That is most likely a fan issue, may be the second one if your laptop has it (which turns on only when it's necessary). You should pass your laptop to warranty repair, they will provide you fan replacement.

David64, to change these options you need to set supervisor password first.

It's loud because of speeding up or do you hear some unusual noise? What are the temperatures when this is happening?

Re: V5 573g memory upgrade failure

I bought Kingston KVR16LS11/4, everything works great for now! BIOS version is 2.28

For those who are looking for it, here are the specifications needed for V5-573G:

DDR3 (sometimes DDR3L, where L means low voltage: 1.35V)
1600MHz
PC3L-12800
1.35V (very important, higher will not work! Even though it says 1.5V on the motherboard.)
SO-DIMM (offcourse)

Hello! Are these issues present with BIOS 2.28? I would like to upgrade RAM and now I'm not sure any more.
