Hi all,
Today I've bought an Acer 5650 (Aspire 5652WLMi actually in Greece). The machine had preinstalled Win XP Home (there is no option for XP Pro here...) so first thing I did was a clean install of XP Pro (NTFS file system) since I need to use it in my company's network....
I downloaded the drivers for Acers European site and everything went fine....all that is but Arcade....
Now Arcade doesn't work so the remote is useless and so are the litlle buttons on the side that say tv and stuff. Does anyone have a clue....????
I would appreciate an answer....

Got an update today...
The Arcade software does not work because it's not installed (silly of me
...) but there is nowhere to be found for download. I talked to Acer and they've told me that the first time the machine boots it asks you to make recovery cd's (mine didn't so i didn't make any).
There is a Disk - 2 - Disk recovery process but does not work because when I did the clean install I repartitioned the disk with NTFS system.
There is a small partition about 3,1 GB with FAT32 that holds all that info. I managed to get access to that partition and the contents. There is this option to make a CD out of an ISO found there but this holds windows xp home only. I try to locate the arcade software in there but it seems to be embeded in windows somehow.
If anyone has any knowledge of he whereabouts of the arcade software please reply...
5650 clean install ????
