I just got a new laptop, Acer 1410 and have gotten my Windows 7 upgrade disk (just did a standard install). I really desire for this thing to be as bare bones as possible without one bit of the preloaded junk on it. I am gathering this is one reason why people do what I see from this website is called a clean install?
I know the basics and catch on to technology well but I am no regular computer wiz, so is this something I should attempt? Will the laptop function fully? Anyting this dummy should know?
I've made the impossible for the driver to work correctly but I can't. I am trying to install the correct Graphic Driver for an Acer Aspire 1410 to no avail.It is a Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family. I've tried to install it:
- Via the device manager - From a driver download directly from the Acer Website. - From Windows Update.
I have installed/uninstalled and I've ran out of ideas. Don't know what to do. Each time I try to do something on device manager there's the yellow triangle with the display driver.
driver for HP PSC 1410 All-in-One Printer, I installed the one in HP's site but its not working properly as I'm unable to use the 1410 at all. I downloaded the Vista(x64) version.
I have had the HP 1410 all in one printer for many years, and has always worked fine. About 2 months ago, my laptop had a hardware failure of some sort, and I only backed up my documents. Everything else had been deleted. I only recently wanted to start using the printer again, so I installed the driver using the HP website. However, once the driver installed, it seems that my printer and my laptop cannot connect up, and it seems that my laptop may not recognise the printer as a device. I am unsure as to what I should do now.
I'm re-installing Windows 7 on an Acer Laptop. This is not my laptop but a friend of my friend's laptop. The Windows 7 installed on the PC is a cracked version namely Windows 7 Eternity. It was installed by some other guy I don't know. The usb port are not functioning but are working. I plugged in my flashdrive and there is no sign of life but when I enter the bios it shows the flashdrive meaning that it works fine but when Window boots up it shows no life. Indicating a problem with Windows. I've tried everything to fix the ports but the last option is to re-install the OS.
He has giving me a disc with Windows Eternity which the guy give him to install but I'm going to install the OEM instead of this cracked pirate copy. To check if the OEM partition is still intact I've installed the cracked copy and used Diskpart.The OEM partition is still there. I've used the disc to format the drive and then rebooted pressed ALT & tapped the F10 key but I don't get the options to re-install OS. What do I do now? other than just installing the cracked copy. I'm guessing when the ot
I have a problem installing Windows 7. I have Acer Aspire 6920 with Windows Vista. I've tried to update Vista to 7 or just format the the whole drive and install a fresh copy but same problem. Everything from the installation is perfect but after this just before the start window to load i get this screen Imageshack - acer . It says that i need recovery and i only can click Exit. If i put my Acer Recover CD, it automatic installs Vista. I am so pissed off. I can't believe i can only run Vista on this Acer ?

I have an acer veriton 1000 and am trying to do a clean install with windows 7. I have a bootable disc and everytime i try and start it it comes up with "Boot from CD :" then under it appears "BOOTMGR is missing" yet i get the same disc and put in my laptop and it starts the boot up process fine.
I have an Acer Aspire One A0751H that's been running Windows XP on a HDD. I've replaced that drive with a 120GB Sandisk SSD and I'm trying to install Windows 7 from an external DVD. I select the custom install path and select the single unallocated partition for installation. It works fine up to the point where it says "Copying Windows files (0%)..." where it hangs. No progress, cursor freezes, no response. The only other change I've made to the machine is to upgrade the RAM to 2GB of Corsair.I've disabled all other boot devices in bios (no floppy drive)
I am attempting a clean install of windows home premium 64bit, with not much success.The laptop is an Acer Aspire 5553 with Toshiba MK3265GSX 320gb HDD.I have the product key and downloaded an .iso image from digital river, burned to disc and changed BIOS to boot from cd/dvd drive.I also wiped clean hard drive (with DNAB) and deleted all partitions which the OS was stored on using diskpart (I may re-partition the hard drive at a later date) and I've subsequently booted install disc.After default language and and install screens appear I receive message stating cd/dvd drivers missing.I've now started Startup repair which has been attempting repairs for over 15 mins now. Perhaps I shouldn't have run that but I was curious to see if there was any problems detected.I have now powered down laptop as I suspect that it had frozen. After reboot, it has now froze on second 'windows is loading files...' screen and disc drive is constantly whirring.I know from the microsoft website that the drivers for the Toshiba MK3265GSX are included on installation disc, so why is it stating that driver's are missing? I have the option of loading drivers from the installation disc, but I wouldn't have thought I had to do that?
I have a Acer Aspire one D257 with no windows operating system installed. I get a 17 error" when I turn it on. I do not know what to do to fix it, or how to reinstall Windows 7 on it.

I have a Compaq Presario CQ56 64-Bit (Windows 7 Home Premium) laptop that I bought before the summer, today a Windows Update has given me an Acer display update published on the 28/12/2011. I thought because I had my vga cable plugged into the TV Windows Update may have become confused but despite checking for updates again it still appears there as optional.
AMD/ATI is recognized by Windows and Windows Update and there had already been a display driver update not so long ago, so I cannnot understand why I'm receiving an update for the wrong machine?
