    No Mobility Center

    I Installed Vista Ultimate on my Acer Notebook; but I have trouble in using
    LCD projector for my presentations. When I look for the Mobility Center, it
    was not there.

    Hi,

    In the control panel, it should be 'windows mobility center'. Or you can
    type it into the start box.

    Curious, I wonder what it thinks it is. Have you installed all the
    supporting drivers from Acer?

    Re: No Mobility Center

    Hi, Rick,

    As far as I know, I think I've installed all - from Acer site.
    I'm not using the battery, is that of any consequence?
    Since it (bat) was faulty.

    Re: No Mobility Center

    Hi,

    Honestly, I don't know. I've not tried that scenario, but it is concievable
    that installing without the battery in place could have led to setup not
    recognizing the system as a notebook.

    Re: No Mobility Center

    Thanks a lot Rick, you're very helpful.
    Is anybody else out there who had came across this type of problems.
    Is it worth buying a new bat just for this?

    Re: SOLUTION TO : No Mobility Center

    Hi,

    I just found out the resolution!
    INDEED,
    VISTA DOES NOT RECOGNIZED A LAPTOP WITHOUT THE BATTERY INSTALLED AS A MOBILE
    PC !

    Hence, the Mobility Center; which is useful for presentation works; will not
    be activated since it is meant for Mobile PCs only.
