Webcam drivers for acer aspire 1410 notebook (11.6")  

it means since there are so many types of mother boards, graphic cards, sound cards, and every other type of componetes, it has every type of driver to get your system up and running, before it installs, it checks over your system to know what drivers it needs to load. it doesnt have none of the manufactures driver, or the add on software. like for instant, when i had vista, i didnt have windows media player to use for movies, i had WinDVD 7 to watch movies with. once you install it, you will need to just download from acer support website your video graphics, and sound card drivers, and if it works your webcam driver. windows will use the updates for any other driver it needs.

I believe the only option is a Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7 as suggested before by both me and derekimo.

The above option is what I would personally do in your position, since this thread has reached the 112th post.

i agree with the clean install. for one: his factory DVD's are the same as my factory DVD's of vista home basic, except his has win7.
two: the split hard drive, on drive D: thats where the hidden partition is for the great idea of repairing corrupt files. so to access that drive D: when you power it up you press the FN and F10 keys together holding them down and it will reboot back to the first day you bought it and pressed the power button. but you still have corrupt files.
SBUX, disregard this and keep your mind on clean install.

This is getting way off the easy track here.

One step at a time. First, that wasn't latecomers post with the clean install links.

This is all you need,

Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7

Using the product key you already own.

The first step is to download and save the ISO file (your desktop is fine) then burn it to a DVD or flash drive as stated in step 2.

The ISO you want to download is the Home Premium x86: X17-58996.iso from the link in step 1.

Once you have those steps done or need help with those post back, forget everything else right now.

Thank you! I started the long download and will be checking back to hope it improves from the 6+ hours displayed, but I'd rather get it right no matter how long...so I'll be posting back after the .iso burn.

we be waiting. hope you good luck getting it going.

Download finished and will purchase a writeable DVD for burning momentarily.

I want to ask a more general question about this forum's ability to help me help a friend who's given me an older system to do with whatever... Although it's Vista Home Basic, I want to start here, different thread obviously if help is possible, to inquire about what that help might be, even if it's to send me to another forum ...

Compaq Presario SR5010NX
Celeron D processor 360
Vista Home Basic
512 MB RAM
120 GB HDD
Intel graphics media accelerator
DVD/CD w/Lightscribe

Since starting over with my notebook via the clean install, I'm wondering if same is available for this much older system...possibly even using the burned DVD for it? The system is ridiculously sluggish to almost stopped, so I'm sure new life can be breathed into it with a format?

Thanks for all the help...

That 512 Mb of RAM is pretty low.

Also just so this thread doesn't go completely sideways I would start a different thread for that task.

vista needs 1gb of ram for premium and i believe pro,ultimate needs 2gb of ram, but you need product key for premium pro and ultimate, im not sure the vista ISO will install basic. home basic is just the basic of windows, you can download the vista ISO from the vista website. depending how old is how much ram would cost. theyre usually under 75 bucks. really old systems is OMG!.

The memory is very low, have you tried running the Crucial Memory Scanner?

The program will scan the motherboard, and then detect what memory modules can be installed, the amount of memory the motherboard can handle and the amount of memory a per a slot.

Hope this helps,
