Hello. I am using this Acer 4741z laptop Win 7 ultimate 32 bit more than 6 years. but from yesterday suddenly my laptop freeze and it was totally hanged. then shutdown it by using power button. after restating my laptop its again freeze and again i shut down it by same way. then i think it will be resolved by installing windows and installed windows today. after successful windows installation i install different driver software e.g LAN, Chipest, WLAN, Bluetooth etc. and finally when i installed intel Graphics Driver then my laptop again went to freeze. so i shut down it by power button and start with safe mode and uninstall the graphics driver. after uninstall of graphics driver software i start my laptop and then i did not face freezing problem. i think this freezing problem is occurring when graphics driver software is installed in my laptop. how can i get a solution of this freezing problem.

There could be a bug in the newest version. Try installing the version that you had previously installed.

Hello,

In Device Manager: Uninstall Display Adapter>Scan for Hardware Changes>Update Driver.

Doesn't work, go to Acer website and download latest driver.

I recommend that you remove the driver using this program and reinstall the driver that you previously had installed. Guru3D - Driver Sweeper

Hi,
Thanks yep you have a typo in your system spec's page that threw me off
You show Acer 4147Z and not what the system summery shows as Acer 4741

Since you have been reinstalling I would highly suggest using new media that has sp1 included in it
Post your Language and we can provide you with it

You need Win-7 32bit Ultimate and just let use know what language.

Display driver wise looks as though you'd be using onboard graphic's so the driver would be mostly on the chipset/ vga driver at Acer's website
There's no need to get it anywhere else.
