No Mobility Center

[Guest]

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.

Hi Rick,

I had tried that.
It yield : "Windows mobility center is available only on mobile PCs only"
I'm using Aspire 5570 - its a notebook!

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

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.

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.

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?

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.
