Have you SEEN it work on Vista or 7? Just wondering...If all else fails it may help to update the chipset driver for Windows 7. Make sure you SELECT Windows 7 x64 when selecting drivers. http://support.acer.com/us/en/product/default.aspx?tab=1&modelId=8 Quote from: joy division on March 28, 2012, 08:00:34 AM If all else fails it may help to update the chipset driver for Windows 7. Make sure you select Windows 7 x64 when selecting drivers. Optical drives haven't needed Drivers since WinME.Could you clarify that a little ? As far as I know CD/DVD drives work through the south bridge (which requires a driver). I'm using 7 Ultimate right now and my ASUS USB blue ray burner uses a driver. Quote CD/DVD Rom was working but right now it stops Are you able to boot off of any Live CDs, like Pupply Linux or a Windows installation disc ? The cd drive might have gone out..I'll clarify it by re-stating what i said above...I think those moderator powers have gone to your head. I'm glad you don't own this WEBSITE, Patio. |
