My g3-572 also has a problem with the camera, it became glitch and someday stopped showing any image. But the led still turns on and microphones are ok. I'm thinking about a problem with the camera itself, because in its last days it worked if I applied some pressure over it.

I had already tried it. It says it is already using the best driver.

Ok! But there is no camera software on acer support page for this device, which version should I try?

No, there isn't any code or error message when this happens.

This model number is well known... it is from 3 years ago, so there is no way it is under warranty.

Strangely enough I don't see a power saver plan, only balanced and high performance... I use the balanced power plan, and it behaved the same on battery power and plugged in. I guess I will install a newer nvidia driver, THe OS updated version but kept the driver... all went smoothly so I kept it this way, and I'm a bit…

Are you sure your programs crash due to low ram? I have a similar config and that window shows the same info, but never got ram limited.Actually, I got some issues when I completely disabled pagefile, some programs simply crash due to the very pagefile absense, not even having to use it.In taskmanager, is there some…

Try download driver from both intel and nvidia from their sites. Pay attention to download the laptop driver from nvidia, easy to mistake between laptop and desktop from their site. I have a very similar model, and last time I installed drivers was when I clean installed 1809, when I download both drivers directly from…

I would like to know too. Since I sent my laptop for a screen repair the model the local acer rep sent wasn't the same I had before. It surely didn't had the blueshield, or whatever it is called. And even being 60 Hz the response time is terrible. I would love to upgrade my screen, not to get more fps, but at least better…

Later windows 10 versions in their infinite beta test program have some adjusting into OS. On that terrible metro-style config menu, search gpu, or find the menu "graphics performance settings, an option for setting the preferred gpu for each program you enter. On nvidia control panel there is a similar option, I think…

My g3-572 is at low office usage most of time, temps around 40°C and zero RPM. It is perfect, doesn't attract dust and is silent. Then fans spin a bit when I load some task, temps ramps a bit and then fall. Zero RPM is a sign of a well configured device, with no unnecessary tasks on background heating up and taking cpu…

I think the nitro models are quite similar to helios from latest gen, if you don't need a better performance and are happy with the latest helios iteration, nitro may serve you well.If you don't mind, what exactly happened with your device? I have a g3-572, and I want it to last at least 5 years.

These temps are somewhat normal and safe, but not really best case. I undervolted mine to keep it everytime below 80 °C, the performance beyond that doesn't worth the stress.Try to keep its airtakes free, elevating its rear a bit can help.

Video camera isnt under imaging devices, it is usually under "camera". If isn't doesn't shows up, it seems it got disconnected or faulty. Is your device under warranty?

Try completely uninstalling msi software.To completely uninstall video drivers, use DDU, it is a nice portable app which clean completely driver installing. About nvidia driver, I would suggest downloading the latest from nvidia site, just be sure it is the laptop driver.

Can you make that open to everyone? It seems I need to login to open that link.

Thermal paste needs to be replaced every time you disassemble any heatsink, to avoid forming air bubbles on it, thus decreasing efficiency.But you can reuse thermal pads, even better if they do not get moved or tore apart; if you damage them, they may get less effective, but it really depends on the damage to make any…

1 - try to undervolt it, both cpu and gpu. there are lots of tutorial here, if it isn't work to full extent, repaste is the next step 2 - it is up to the space you need 3 - my g3-572 also came with only one RAM module. installing the second one gives dual channel, which may improve cpu performance a bit, and integrated gpu…

I don't play this game, so I don't know what is maxing out, if your CPU or your GPU is being your bottleneck. One thing you could try, if the limiting factor is your CPU, is upgrading the RAM. This laptop come with single channel memory, if you can afford buying another RAM module to install in parallel with the one it…

Have this same device, sadly the answer is "no". The usb 3.0 port doesn't support video, no matter which adapter you use. It seems some limitation of many laptops (not acer only) which uses dual graphics intel + nvidia. The nvidia controls hdmi, and intel controls the built-in display only.
