Aspire E1-531-4852 Is it compatible with the I5-580M processor?
From what I researched, the notebook's socket is 989 or 988. If anyone could confirm this I would appreciate it, but my fear is that the Bios does not recognize the CPU.

Acer Spin 5 SP513-54N Wacom Driver Not Recognizing Tablet
I recently got a Bamboo Ink stylus to replace the stock stylus that comes with the Spin 5 and when I was going through the installation instructions it asked me to download Wacom Components Driver version: 7.7-111. When I downloaded and ran it it said that "A supported tablet was not found on the system." Any ideas? Threads on here seemed to indicate that the Spin 5 is compatible with any AES 2.0 stylus. I'm on Windows 11, if that makes a difference.

Helios 18 - PH18-71 - Predator Sense Scenarios and Modes & Fan Control
Hey All,
Just got my new Helios 18 in Australia and so far, I'm pretty happy with it, other than a couple of issues.
The first one is controlling fan speed via Scenarios and Modes. There seems to be no way of attaching a fan speed to each of the modes. So, when you use the hardware mode switch, to change from Balanced to Turbo, the fan speed stays the same and you need to go in and manually change it.
The only way I can see to attach a specific fan speed would be via scenarios. I could have one scenario called "normal use" and one called "gaming". I could then attach a different fan speed to each.
The issue with the latter is that there is no shortcut or button to use that switches between the two scenarios like you can with the mode switch for modes. I will have to open Predator Sense and change the scenario manually.
Can someone let me know if I'm missing something. I would like to have a situation when I start a game like Microsoft Flight Sim, which causes high CPU temps, where I could just press a button or shortcut that would automatically increase performance to Turbo and fan speed to something I have set manually (I find around 4500 is a good trade-off between temp and noise for MSFS)
Cheers
Mick
