Re: Acer Aspire: Keyboard and touchpad failure when running on battery

Hi,

have you tried another battery? like swapping batteries with a friend who has a similar system but without these symptoms.

one more thing to try in relation to Acer's advise to remove the MS driver. try running a totally different operating system like linux. download the live-CD version and burn it to CD and try running it. observe if the symptoms still come out. if yes, then you at least narrowed down the possibility that it is not the MS driver but the battery or your something in your motherboard.
