Solved WiFi Driver for Acer E1-570

[moehican]

I am now working for 3 days on installing Windows 7 pro x64 on an Acer E1-570.
The installation itself worked fine but i am having some driver issues.
Acer only supports Win8 for this Notebook.
Some of the Win8 drivers on the provided CD worked, but i cannot find the right ones for the WIFI controller.
Also some USB device (USB3.0?) needs a driver. I tried different atheros and broadcom drivers for other acer and even Lenovo Notebooks but i have no luck!
Can anyone provide me the correct driver for Wifi?

On the recommendation of maxie I'm starting this as a new thread. The same problem was earlier discussed in: http://www.sevenforums.com/drivers/317142-help-needed-acer-e1-570-windows-8-windows-7-a.html

Try the one in the Link below

Atheros INF file version 10.0.0.234 for Atheros AR5B97 and Windows 7 64bit

Worked!
On the link there is no download. It links to an overview of atheros drivers. I accidently took the version 10.0.0.270 instead of the 10.0.0.234 you recommended. But as it works i won't change it.
Thanks a lot.
Would it be very rude to further asl for USB 3.0 drivers? Know the name of the thrad if wrong for that :-(

Worked again!!!

was the right one.

No more yello exclamation mark signs in the device manager. Love it!
