I tried changing the graphicsdrivers, different DX versions, disabling most features, but I can't get it to work.

Whenever the game starts I get a grey screen an the cursor.
When pressing return twice the game loads and everything works fine until you go up the stairs suddenly the screen gets yellowish,
but when you turn around and go upstairs backwards everything is fine,

same outside... you can look in some directions and everything is fine, the next moment the screen is yellow or grey or whatever...
unplayable. Any hints?

The thing is - it's not graphic card related (I guess) - because when you change renderer to software (in console) everything looks
like you'd expect it from software rendering, but the same graphics bugs occur.

Since you're already spending money on it, why don't you get a free quote from several of those data rescue companies first?

I hope you at least got the now drive to work again after disassembling it.

Good luck.

Technical Issues / Re: squeaky lcd hinges

Seems as if most x1000 users are great DIY-men...

WD-40 worked well for me - no more squeaky noises for over a year now!

What do you need the latest firmware for anyways?
Didn't seem to improve anything.

And now that I have an Abocom wireless card (125mbit - which actually improves as much as the latest firmware :-)...

Technical Issues / power button doesn't quite work
March 27, 2007, 03:05:26 AM
Hello,

I've had this problem for quite a while that I have to press the power button a specific way to function /
I now even have removed the cover to get the Laptop to work more easy.

The thing is that I just bought an Acer 8103 off ebay because my loved zt3280us wouldn't let me properly play S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

So now I just want to fix the power button and sell it on ebay.

I know that some others had the same problem / but unfortunately the old x1000forums site is gone / and what a shame that
noone made a backup.

Same here.
Feared the LCD might crack because the hinges were barely moving.
Screwed them off, put some WD40 in 1,5 years ago / since then
everything is working perfectly fine.

Upgrades and Accessories / Replacing/Upgrading the LCD
August 10, 2006, 11:26:20 AM
I want to buy a LCD from a X1000, NX7000 or ZT3200 for
my zt3280us, to get one with a higher resolution than 1280x800.

Is it that simple or what else do I have to replace?
