saugen is right. it is a bad board, with a bad southbridge. The southbridge is failing. A shop that repairs boards could try to reflow the southbridge but it will still fail eventually. eventually your keyboard and touchpad may stop...

double check your specs. most likely it does not have bluetooth. the button is there because some models may have it, but most aspires in general do not.

tl:dr all of it gpu is failling like so many other P series units. nvidia bad bumps.

GL40 chipset only supports 4GB http://ark.intel.com/chipset.aspx?familyID=35507

please don't dig up an old thread. last reply on this was in 2008

it's just a normal S1 socket, but like was stated low TDP keeps upgrade options low. an L310 would be a nice upgrade. Other S1 processors would also work, but you would probably have overheating issues.

KAV60 is the platform name, so is KAV80. Since they are different, you should not update the bios.
