I've had the same issue and tried the F8 and load " last known good configuration" and it booted but then tried to install the driver again and several other windows updates, when I then rebooted a week later the system won't even boot up with the "last good known configuration" I also can't get it to boot in safe mode. Any suggestions

Re: My Acer aspire 5100
If you are able, when the pc is booting up keep pressing F8, this will take you to safe mode and not allow the graphics driver to run.
When in the safe mode options, select either Last known good configuration or start windows in safe mode.
Last known good configuration should find the last good system settings, when it reboots.
Start windows in safe mode allows you to go into windows using the administartor account, and then you should select system restore and restore back to the day before or just before you updated the graphics driver.

This is a known issue with initial releases of Windows Vista. If you have a Windows Vista DVD ROM you can boot your laptop with it and choose to repair Windows.
If chkdisk or repair is not helpful then unfortunately, there is no other repair procedure.
You will have to manually back-up your data by removing the hard drive and connecting it to another computer. After that, format the hard drive and reinstall Vista.
Remember to install latest service packs and updates from Microsoft download center.
sounds like you need to reinstall the operating system. if you don't have the disk you can call acer and they will send you the disk. they might charge you for the disk usually between $15 and $30.
hii ther

salammmmmmmm {bye in arabic}
The complete solution to this fault (Acer 5535 keeps crashing under vista) is to use Windows XP instead of Vista. Set up a Dual Boot so you can CHOOSE to load XP or Vista each time you turn on the laptop. I've put XP on my 5535 and it's SO much faster and seems perfectly stable now - no crashing at all.
A full video showing how to do this is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdfU9TXIAd4 Once you've done this you won't have any problems with the laptop anymore. This is a perfect solution to the crashing problem!
Download the unified Radeon drivers from ATI's website... do not use Windows update. Get the Drivers Only package. for Vista 32-bit
If you can get to the desktop: Uninstall the existing display drivers by using the remove hardware utility. Whatever they are... remove them. Reboot. Windows will try to reinstall the drivers on the next boot. If it allows you cancel the installation at any time during install do it. Run the downloaded package from ATI. Reboot.
If you can't get to the desktop: Press F8 when booting and enter safe mode with networking. Download the ATI drivers from ati.com for Vista 32-bit. Uninstall the display drivers. Reboot. Should take you to the desktop on the next boot so you can run the install program.
i have the same problem with drivers i can't ever update the drivers on my ATI graphics card on the actual ATI site.
you have to go to that site, and select your acer aspire model from a dropdown list.
(sometimes the number is not exactly the same but get the closest one posible, eg. have an aspire 1682, but the drivers for it are listed under aspire 1680. as a guide make sure the second last digit is equal to the digit of yours.)
the computer cant open anithing since the update
