    Drivers Not Compatible


    Hi, I recently downgraded my computer to Windows XP because I prefer that OS over windows 7, But now I need to install my drivers included in my laptop, But when I do The device will not start or will not install.. Someone please help (Also, Please do not tell me to upgrade back to 7 as I do not have the disks or the money to do so.).

    your best bet is to go to the acer website for that model to get the drivers, my acer is an even earlier model that was originally recorded as vista/W7, so i doubt if your going to be successfull.

    note if your PC was originally W7 you can use the factory restore option no cost involved
