Win 7 compatibility issue acer M5100

Hello,
I have an acer aspire m5100 (piece of junk I know) but it is all i havr right now and i need to do my school work. I am running a AMD 64 duel x2 4400, 4 gigs of memory and an ATI radeon HD 4670.
Here is my problem, in the nether abyss of what acer calls a website they say that the M5100 cant take windows 7. Great, this after 2 days of searching to make sure I was good to go, and after win 7 pro was installed. My graphics drivers shut down the computer after a blue screen when ever I open an application. I also have 0 sound...
Whwn I go to download the latest display drivers for my AMD radeon it wigs out the comp and shuts it down. Is there anything that can be done about this? info you need or a crazy computer guy method I would have never even known about unless I asked?

From the specs that I have found it would seem that that your PC was rated for Vista and I do not know the reason why it would not run Windows 7. Have you tried installing the Vista drivers in Compatibility Mode
