Acer, like other major manufacturers, continues to invest in the development of portable Chromebook, category of terminals rather popular among users looking for a versatile and not too demanding.

Apparently, in this case we are dealing with a convertible notebook Acer Chromebook called C738T, already appeared between the leak in recent weeks and recently certified by the US FCC.

The device identified in the documents of the US is the guarantor ‘CB5-132T Acer, one of two models that, at least judging from what has been learned so far, do not show major differences. The pages of publications indicate that it is a “Tablet Computer” and leave guess whether it is a convertible provided with a hinge system similar to that of Chromebook Flip.

Among the technical details reported are the presence of a module Wi-Fi 802.11ac connectivity and Bluetooth 4.1. The new Chromebook should also be equipped with 11.6-inch HD display, 4GB of RAM, 16GB of eMMC memory, camera in 720p and will be one of the first to use an Intel Celeron 1.6GHz N3150 (2,06GHz in turbo mode ) belonging to the family Braswell.

Amenities also include an HDMI port, microSD slot, USB 3.0 and USB 2.0, and of course the operating system Chrome OS.

Today we present a new solution laptop light and interesting it is called NEC LaVie Hybrid Zero and is a personal computer that tries to compete with the competition, using a weight of just 779 grams, less than a pound, then, and a thickness of only 16.9 millimeters.

The judgment is very positive, although we have not tested, because the ultra-compact solutions, although not always have the best performance, they are very comfortable a little for all users.

LaVie Hybrid Zero also has another important peculiarity: the data-sheet is characterized by the presence of a very interesting processor, a Broadwell that – as you know – was presented recently and is much less expensive, in terms of consumption, compared to ‘Haswell (and performance, especially, have been improved greatly). Well the rest of the technical specifications is good, because we are talking about a device 2 in 1, then really complete:

• Touchscreen 13.3-inch Full-HD or WQHD;
• Core i5-5200U / i7-5500U;
• 4/8 GB RAM;
• Autonomy equal to 6.5 / 11.5 hours.

It remains to see another pair of components, which are still unknown, but, as it stands, LaVie Hybrid Zero does not leave unsatisfied: only hope that, as a device that belongs to a brand is not noble, the price does not reach stellar figures.

There are several utilities worth using like avira antivirus whenever a computer keeps crashing to try and establish what the fault is. This article details some of the most useful tools for locating and possibly repairing these types of problems.

Your first option is to try using Device Manager to establish if there are problem with hardware components. This details all hardware and peripherals on your system and identifies if there are conflicts, device driver problems, etc. that can crash PClaptops or computers. Use the utility’s own help tool to get suggestions for how repairs can be made for specific problems.

The BIOS menu (accessible only when rebooting the system) provides invaluable information about your hard drive, fan blades and the CPU. In particular you need to check diagnostics for any signs of overheating. Some manual checks can also be done to see that the computer is being kept well away from radiators, one of the air vents are blocked or covered in dust, the heat sink is not damaged and your fans are in working condition.

Windows OS also provides the disk checking utility for analyzing sectors in your drive for signs of damage. Quite often, a computer keeps crashing because application files are stored in these bad sectors of being caused by physical damage to the platters themselves or problems with the disk administration software. The application is located under Windows Explorer/pick a drive/properties/tools.

Lastly, registry damage is probably the most common cause of PC crashes. If your computer keeps crashing after a virus was detected then chances are it had also damage your registry keys. Run antivirus applications or registry cleaners to try and rectify these faults. In addition, Windows provides its own system restore utility [all programs/accessories/system tools/System Restore] that can be used to rollback your registry file to an earlier saved version that Windows stores on the hard drive.
