Windows 7 installed on acer aspire 5516
Hi, I installed windows 7 on my acer aspire 5516, but I am not satisfied by the graphics.
I know that windows 7 can install most of the drivers for your laptop or computer and I also know that windows 7 works better with the new processors (quad core, core duo, core 2 duo of), I checked my video card and it says:
The current video card can support Aero with a driver that is compatible with the driver model (WDDM) Display Windows. Contact the manufacturer of your video card or computer for a WDDM compatible driver.
I clicked next and it was checking the video card and I read: video card driver does not support the Aero effects... is not fixed
What can I do?
Help, please
If Acer does not have a driver, there is nothing you can do... Mike Hall MVP - Windows Experience http://msmvps.com/blogs/mikehall/

I already upgraded my Acer Aspire One 0725-10 Windows. However, it seems to be an incompatibility with some of my courses installed applications and drivers that several questions. Microsoft support reviewed my concerns and concluded that a clean install of windows 10 would be the way to go. Before doing this, it would be probably good get applications and drivers that will be needed after the installation. If anyone can provide me with a list, it would be greatly appreciated.
Most of the drivers will be updated by windows update when connected to the web.
on the applications, I think that Acer launch Manager is required to use the Fn keys:
but... I read some discussions on the issues on windows 10 with Acer launch manager, worth a try to install.
to check if all the drivers are installed and work properly, after verifying that all updates are installed:
Key of the Windows logo + x
Click on Device ManagerIf the yellow exclamation point is present
Double click on it
Choose the tab "Details".
in the drop-down list, select HardwareIDs
Click the first value and paste here -
I got an Acer Aspire One 110 with Linpus Linux lite. Nobody has updated, so the browser to this topic is Firefox 2.0.0.14, which is a major concern for safety.
The latest version of linux that works properly (as shown) is Firefox 7.0.1. Some people have reported problems from Firefox 8 in Linpus Lite.
So I need to find a link where I can download this version of Firefox, in Finnish (apparently lang = fi - FI) because Mozilla has removed his breaks like a stale version.
However, as it is the most recent version to work properly under Linpus Linux Lite (and also in view of the features of the Acer Aspire One 110), I could really use a download link for this version of Firefox, 7.0.1 in Finnish language.
You can download it here

Boot SSD on charges windows configuration install on the Aspire S3 - 951
I am trying to install Windows on an Aspire 8.1 s3-951. The computer has two drives, a 20 GB SSD for the startup, then a larger storage drive. Before I removed Windows 7, Windows displays only a large disk. I installed Windows 8.1 on the SSD, but I can't understand how to make window think them as a single disk.
Suggestions? Thank you!
the 20 GB SSD was not for the OS, but just like cache for a rapid reactivation of hibernation and on windows 7, he was simply hidden the system.
in my opinion, the creation of a single hard drive is not a value since involves the RAID configuration and you feel not probably speed optimizations.
