| My Vista desktop thinks it's a notebook... I have an Acer AX1700-U3793A desktop with Vista x64 SP1. There is a battery icon in the tray and the power management options have a section "On Battery" in addition to "Plugged In". I went to install SP2 and it stopped and told me I'm on battery power. My wife has the sam computer as they arrived the same day. Hers is not showing this. I got stuck with the odd-ball. Is there any way to fix this other than restore the operating system with her restore disks. I hate to have to reinstall all the stuff I have on this computer plus getting rid of all the crapware and bloatware that's preinstalled.
