I need a driver for my laptop so that the battery won't show red x and tells me to switch battery, even tough it's 100%

Anyone knows about my problem?

I'm guessing that the battery issue would be connected to the chipset drivers. However, after searching the downloads at Acer's site, the only chipset drivers available are for Vista, nothing for Windows 7.

You can use the vista drivers without any problem.

This is a win7 bug, common to most OEM brands, not just Acer. Seems to be a hardware compatibility issue.

As a workaround, try setting up Critical battery action to 'Do Nothing'.
