Hey Riki,

Thank you for the update.

What is the exact error message you get associated with Photos app?

Earlier you got the error code 43 for the device, which means one of the motors controlling the unit notified the operating system that the device has failed in some way. In other words, that there is a possibility of defective material. We tried to uninstall and reinstall the drivers for the device, and then he worked for a while and it stopped working again. Now, I suggest you to check if the same error code is listed in the Device Manager. If she says the same error code means that the device is defective. Thus, it would be better if you contact Acer hardware support for assistance.

    Vista references apply to Windows 7.

    You probably need to recharge the device drivers and any software control of the 'IF' camera, there is
    everything for Windows 7.

    Login as an administrator.

    Double-click Control Panel / Device Manager - Imaging - writing down of the brand and model of camera.
    on this subject and on the tab of the driver is version. Now, click on update drivers (who are unable to do anything as MS
    is far behind the pilots of certification). RIGHT click on the camera - UNINSTALL - REBOOT - it
    will update the driver stack.

    Now, go to the system manufacturer's website and download the latest driver for the camera and the other related camera
    software (if not more recent get the same).

    Download - SAVE - go to them and RIGHT CLICK - RUN AS ADMIN - reboot after each driver.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    Then let windows updates on however prevent loading of drivers who are often older than the
    those that you have installed. If updates suggests a pilot and then HIDE it and watch manually to see if their
    really is a more recent version (at the time system manufacturer and the sites of the manufacturer of the device).

  • Acer Aspire HD E1 graphics driver - 571-4000

    Hello, I tried to update the HD Graphics 4000 driver in my Acer Aspire E1-571 and I'm able to get the latest version of the driver works very well from the Acer support page. However, this driver is almost 3 and a half years now or dates from 2012 with the fact that every time I encounter a problem with a modern game support always telling me to update my drivers. The latest driver from Intel page is perhaps not more than two months. I am aware that the driver must come from the OEM for him to be recognized, but decided to opt for a workaround see if I could update it in any case.

    I tried the advice from the support page from Intel to uninstall the driver from Acer and do a fresh reinstall with the latest Intel driver instead, but it does not work. It seems that it only allows for Installer try to install it but fails halfway through, as supposed is not at all tell me to go to my OEM. It seems that Acer genuneily uses the custome for its driver software and if the latest driver must be provided.

    I'm I missed something here, this is really the last version supplied by Acer and would it be possible for Acer to release a newer version. I also checked with people who use an HD Graphics 4000 and they do not seem to meet the same problems I did when using DX11. Which none use Acer laptops.

    My characteristics are i5 - 3210 M 2.5 GHz with Turbo boost of 3.1 GHz technology

    8 GB RAM DDR3

    Version number of Intel Graphics HD 4000 9.17.10.2867

    I finally found the solution, you had reason to propose a system reset but that only highlighted the real problem. It was a combination of issues, hive corrupted corrupted windows installer and interference from program files. I recommend to anyone who tries this correction to create a Windows easy transfer file and backup register and license keys.

    First of all, I tried to do a refresh of the system and then install the driver, even though I've updated first he failed and blue screened after the installation of the driver as he had not the necessary DirectX update. Which implies that updates has not really saved. I opened a restore point to back up the system and he projected blue perma then. The system repair tool is not actually grant me access to the restore point to try again. To work around this problem, I opened the disk part via the command prompt in the advanced and then forced Startup Repair tool permissions. To do this, I typed first 'Diskpart', then 'list volume', then select the disk D and C drive by their volume number. For my part D training was 0 and C disk 1, then withdraw their letters and assign again so that the primary drive is drive C (even if it does not change letters volume the end of it, it will always be you grants the permissions you need). This love so much "select volume 0", "Remove letter = d','select volume 1','Remove letter = c','select volume 1','affect letter = c',"select volume 0", " affect letter = d'. "" "" Then type 'exit' and 'rstrui.exe'. Perform the restore from here point and you should be able to continue the restore point.

    With myself however, the restore point has been so severely altered it could not load up, worse yet, I was not able to make an another refresh or reset. I discovered that this was due to corrupt hive files, I renamed to solve this problem through the command-line as follows, ""C: ', 'cd %windir%\system32\config', "ren system system.001", "ren software software.001', 'exit'." This then allowed me to perform a system reset.

    The first thing I tried to do was last updated in the system and even once, it has failed, it is constantly necessary to restart and wouldn't install anything. After you perform a clean boot, I realized that it was interference program McAfee and after he could not afford to be disabled I uninstalled it completely (I might have updated to see if he would settle the matter, but at this point, I was losing patience). Procceded updates until the end of the first batch. After that, the update has been stuck in a loop of always trying to find updates but never finished. It was because corrupt windows files from the installer, to solve this problem, I restarted the machine to make sure that the update has been closed and I opened as an admin command prompt so I could rename them and force the system to make new files by typing the following. "net stop wuauserv", "net stop cryptsvc", "net stop bits. Then type "ren SoftwareDistribution.old C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution", "ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 catroot2.old. Then type 'net start wuauserv', 'net start cryptsvc', 'net start bits' reactivate the update and then restart the computer. The update then worked fine until he hit Security Windows KB2756872 solve this I used a manual installation.

    Available to the Update for Windows 8 for x 64 systems (KB2756872) - Microsoft and then select Windows8-RT-KB2756872-x 64.msu (162.8 MB).

    After this all updates completed fine, I created my restore points (and a backup just in case restore point) and continued to install the driver manually. It worked the first time after having solved the problems. I use Windows easy transfer to restore all the files and after I re - install my programs, I'll be as good news.

  • Acer Aspire 7741 G-6426 Win7 32-bit: Bluetooth and Webcam not working not

    We have two laptops Acer Aspire 7741 G-6426 Win7 32-bit that neither bluetooth NOR webcam work on.  Both of them have, according to the Device Manager, all the drivers installed (no yellow exclamation point and try to update drivers yields the 'installed the latest software' message) and we seem to have all installed software.  In fact, there is no driver under Device Manager problem.

    We have Acer Crystal Eye webcam installed, but when you navigate to it (start > all programs > Acer Crystal Eye Webcam video class), the only option is "Uninstall".

    We Suite Bluetooth installed for the bluetooth, but when you navigate to it (start > all programs > more Bluetooth > Bluetooth Suite) and try to start it, nothing happens... no program will ever launch.  There is also a Bluetooth peripheral folder (start > all programs > Bluetooth devices) which says: (empty).

    What gives?

    I checked our systems and found that the Aspire 7741 G-6426 not comes with Bluetooth.

  • Acer Aspire its problems after Win 7 Pro and the new installed HARD drive

    I have an acer aspire 8735 laptop g-6502 which has recently undergone a WD 500 GB drive HARD failure. I replaced that with a 7200 RPM Hitachi 1 TB drive and given that I don't have a Win 7 original used a disk Win 7 Pro with an extra friend.

    Windows 7 Pro and HARD disk installation went smooth. But now when I plug an HDMI cable to watch through my Marantz receiver, comes from the video, but I have to do manually the Marantz the default audio device for sound. When I unplug the HDMI, I must return to the parameters of sound and unenable Marantz and re - activate the Realtek audio.

    Before the drive died HARD, happen all perfectly when you plug the HDMI cable in and the fact to disconnect without any fiddling around with settings.

    I also have a few other questions:
    1. the touch volume control next to the numeric keypad does not control the volume more
    2. the keyboard key used to have a setting to display it. You can use two fingers on a tablet to drag the image to the screen bigger and smaller.

    I looked the site of Acer and also used my drive Application and drivers to reinstall everything that looked related to these issues. When first, I installed Win 7 Pro I let Windows find the appropriate drivers. It worked for some things but not others.

    Any ideas? I have a few scratches on my face and my forehead in frustration pain making me beat me here. Funny, but true, so all ideas are appreciated!

    Here's my screen design Mgr impression - there's an 'unknown' device IDK how to understand what it is.
