Problem for Acer Aspire? T180 PC Desktop
Acer Aspire T180 Missing Drivers
I got fed up with VISTA and installed XP Pro on to my Acer Aspire T180. All went well except that I now am missing drivers. When I go to Device Manager it shows that there are no drivers installed for the Display adapter / Video Controller (VGA compatible) and also under Other devices / PCI Device.
I've searched on the web and am not able to find any drivers and the default video is awful.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

I had the same problem when I "upgraded" a T180 from Vista to XP. You have to ensure that the drivers match the audio chip. There are two types - check out the audio chip with PCwizard.
Downloads are availabe from the Acer site.

My problem was with the T180 was the VGA support under XP. Reinstalling the Chipset drivers fixed that - audio and ethernet still broken but I'm using a wireless adapter for networking and I have separate sound care for sound - but anyway the link is:
http://support.acer-euro.com/drivers/downloads_gd.html
I downloaded and installed chipset for XP 32 and it worked fine - presume the same is true for the Home Edition drivers.
I did try the pdf index suggested by a previous poster but I found all the links to XP drivers were broken.

I have the same problem with my video drivers gone misssing
Comment by Guest, posted on Oct 24, 2008
My problem is the display drivers. None I've tried works. At least I fiddle around with the audio drivers and accidentally discovered that The so called HD audio for realteak does well, as for the display the situation is far worse than one can imagine because I have tried a dosen of them now but the effort invains. I've been using every utility disk i could lay my hands on "alas" none works. So I'm now stuck with vista and my slow computer with the RAM upgraded to 1.25GB (i.e.1GB + 512MB).

Comment by rgdabear, posted on Aug 27, 2008
I switched my Acer Aspire Aspire T180 from Vista to XP SP2.
I reformatted the drive and installed a fresh installation of XP. Everything works great except I don't have sound or connection to internet. According to the Device Manager, I don't have drivers for PCI Ethernet, Video Controler, Sound and the other devices in the PCI category. Can I get a download of these drivers?

I downloaded the PDF file and selected the appropriate driver. But when I ran the setup application and restarted the computer, nothing happened. When I went to check the drivers that still weren't installed, the video driver still appeared as uninstalled on the list.
