I purchased Acer Travelmate 5612 about 3 years ago and it was loaded with Acer empowerment Technology; it worked alright until the last few months. since then any time I turn on my computer I get the message "The application failed to initialize properly (0c0000135). Click on OK to terminate the aplication". I find also that my computer battery runs down almost immediately if I do not plug in the computer to an external electric power source. Not being a computer buff, I find it very annoying when I cannot use the computer away from the wall plug.
