for some reason nowhen i press fn and a function e.g. volume up it doesnt come up with the display telling you the volume level at the moment, do you know how i can get it back? thanks
i had the same problem. i use also Acer(xp home)
go to run> msconfig> startup> and select all the acer tools(select all the function to be more sure.)
and also go to services and check if you have disabled the acer services.
i resolve my problem like this
