Video Tutorial on how-to Repair the ASUS EeePC 1001HA or any 1000 series including 1005 model Netbooks. You will see how to Replace the SATA Hard Disk Drive (HDD) and RAM. This requires you to pull it apart and dissemblance it and then reassembly and put it back together with screw drivers. I also show that it still works after doing this and install Pinguy OS a Ubuntu Linux remix on it. Original video production by the www.OSGUI.com Tech Show.

Vancouver 2010! It’s a big enough event that it merits its own line of notebooks and netbooks. I have a quick look at this thing, which honestly feels like a great showcase for how far Acer has come in the last 5 years. It’s solidly built, slick looking, and I’m genuinely impressed!

@180964294 cheers
sorry do not know the model number
great video, saved me a lot of fiddeling about finding the right spots to undo the plastic covers. Do you happen to have a model number of the WD drive you put back in? My 160ST has intermittand boot problems, I’d better replace it while I can still get the software from it. Any advise on replacements? Cheers,
Ernie in France
@zaeroxe cheers your welcome

@juliansuse1 im not sure sorry

good luck
@MIsyarif re-check everything
Hi my hdd failed and i am about to embark on the same mission. Can you please give me more information about what would be a suitable drive to order as a replacement? Like size, whether it’s ide sata etc? I want to make sure I get the right one.
After i turned it on the screen just wouldnt power on!! Help me!
@ValentinoVice cheers thanks
I owe you big time, mate; thx for the upload!
@Chamunks cool
good luck with it
thanks for sharing
And the upgrade is finished. You left a few screw removals out of your video but thats fine once you start pulling the thing apart you eventually notice that the screw by the ram under the ram door needs to be removed and also when removing the harddrive you must also remove the screw bolting the drive down which i didnt think to look for.
All in all im already installing win7 into my 120GB OCZ vertex 2 SSD and awaiting to see the results. Thanks for the video.
@alan87guitarist yeah so true
yep
I have the 1001HA version. I found replacing RAM simple and I had taken the back off and had a sneaky suspicion the keyboard had to come off and this video helped prove my theory. I think they all come 160GB as standard. Is the 250GB the best upgrade….I guess 500GB and 1TB HDD’s are just too big for these small netbooks?
Not bothered to be fair, cause I have an external 2TB HDD =)
@thierry75014
???
watchin it of my new aspire one d255, got it on Christmas.
He looks like the guy that plays Carlisle in the Twilight Saga. LOL.
Protip: Acer notebooks suck. This is said with experience.
could you make another video about the performance of this pc plz??
my netbook is 10.1 inches and has a 250gb hard drive
vancouver !!!! wuhhhuuu!!!!!
Oh Kay, now that’s what Im talkin about!
@Bayngan and what I meant was the second generation Timelines (I work for Acer, obviously…). There’s ALWAYS a compromise somewhere with long battery life which is what the Timeline series is all about but the Timeline X series have significantly greater performance (Core i3, i5 and i7 chips) and they’ve got the switchable graphics technology down a lot better too and by using ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470 and HD 5650 GPUs, this time you can actually use them for games.
lol, no I meant performance power. If they could start releasing Higher configs, esp. for gamers… I like the battery life acer has though , my Acer LT runs longer than my friends’
first they got battery life up to 8+ hours. With the new models they’re about to add a whole bunch of power.
Yes it is. Brushed aluminum on all these limited edition models.
Is the lid really brushed aluminum??? It looks like silver plastic in the video.
@thetshirtblog, your gay, promise
good video
i want your job.. lol
hey should i get one like my mum need a laptop they some think good should i get an dell, hp, acer
thick fingers + small hands = ???
lucky EstherNCIX
OK, so now we’ve finally seen the camera man…. 3:49, black Shirt, black hair, light skin….
.
Eitherway, if only acer could add more power to their products, their designs are sleek. Guess they’re going for the low-budget consumer market it seems.
Linus seems like he’d be a cool dude to hang out with.
I honestly watch Linus’s videos for no other reason than his soothing voice. And I’m not even gay. Promise.
i like this notebook
the cpu sucks but ur battery life increases
I dunno if it’s specific to the Olympic Edition, but this one has a multilingual keyboard… the layout is different, and there are all sorts of fancy characters you can type by using the “Alt Gr” key.
Future-proofing.
You don’t really want to overclock laptops/netbooks as doing so would seriously affect the battery life and the cooling inside laptops would probably be insufficient. Also, you’d probably be locked out of doing so in the BIOS anyway.
