It is a nice and ellegant laptop I would love to have. It really is.. No doubt about its performance. I was waiting for this product to show up when I saw 4740G. It is the best I can afford when I need a high-specs laptop with affordable price. Thank you for the review.  (Quote)  (Reply)

just my 2 cents…

Hey rg cruz, there are many reasons will lead to laptop turning off, while I can not know the reason for the moment. You can try to install another OS instead of your original OS, if the problem is still, then you may have to send your laptop to examine and repair….  (Quote)  (Reply)

hey, i bought my laptop a week ago. i think there is something wrong with the laptop’s wifi receptor. my other laptop, acer aspire 4315 which is way slower than my new one, opens webpages a lot faster. does it have something to do with the driver that i installed?? cause, there are 3 drivers that i can choose from and i dont know which one to choose so i installed them all.  (Quote)  (Reply)

hi! i just bought this laptop for almost a month ago. while having a chat last night, it freezes (my browser is also open, itunes, ym, and msn) then theres a sound from the hardware area, i think. so, i forced to shut it off coz im afraid that maybe the laptop will explode because of that strange sound. and when i opend it, it cannot be open again. after the showing of that acer thingy, windows cant loaded no more. it says that maybe its due to unplugging removable storage while using it. or cdrom or hardware fails. but i dont have any storage connected at that time. it can never be open now. i tried it how many times, but still there is no hope, i can use it now.

please help me for what im gonna do TT_TT thanks!  (Quote)  (Reply)

i bought acer aspire 4745g i3 2 weeks ago and it works fine, you can press P at the upper right and if the blue led light is on, it means you are using Intel Graphics Media Accelerator, for longer battery life. graphics is good cause i already installed and played NBA2k10.
@victor: just reinstall the bluetooth driver, i also experienced that problem but when i first installed the broadcom and then atheros, it suceed..
@carissa: is your laptop still under warranty? go and bring it to it’s service center. i dont think that its a os matter..

Please tell me how long does your 4745G works on battery?
In my case the same result when it works on Radeon videocard and when it works on Intell HD: at brightness level of 30% it works about 1h 30 min (+/- 10-15 min),so i cannot even see the whole movie-it goes to hibernate.
Is it normal? All owners of this notebook have the same result?
If anybody have more than 2 hours of working in movie watching mode – please explain how to make 4745G to work longer from battery?
Thanks in advance,

I bought this laptop and it is very reliable. The computing power is amazing. The processor is ultra fast. It’s a good buy considering the price at 40k and you have i5 processor, 500 GB HD and RAM can be upgraded to 4GB. I think most of the problems mentioned by the comments above are just mainly overlooked settings of the laptop’s os. Just an advice, maximize the features of this laptop and you’ll never have to buy another laptop the next 2 or 3 years. I use this for my engineering work. I have had this laptop for months and still it feels like it is brand new each time i use it, because it is ultra fast, it’ll get old really slow. really. :D   (Quote)  (Reply)

hey can someone help me. How can I change the brightness of my Acer 4745? I already tried pressing the Fn + (right) key, it still doesn’t work. It has a windows vista as an OS. please help, the screen was to bright, and it hurts my eyes just looking on it for 1 hour. Thanks in advance.  (Quote)  (Reply)
