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

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.

I saw window loading (Vista) on ACER Aspire 8730-6918 but after boot up the screen is blank. I can move the curser point on the screen but nothing display.

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.

Acer aspire 5100 laptop has ati graphics driver problem-black scn

Alright. Re-install the ATI drivers but when it asks, select Custome setup.

When it shows the components to be installed, select the Drivers only, Do not install the Catalyst program.

This turned out to be my situation a few years back.

Give it a try and let me know and we can go from there.

Good luck

Bought an Acer Aspire 5535 yesterday and had screen problems, i.e went blank after a period, but not always. Took it back and got it exchanged for another 5535. Experiencing the same problem. Is there a...

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!

ATI Radeon X1300 wont work with my Vista 32 bit

Try this.

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.

Where can i get driver updates for my aspire 5100 "orbicam"

If you want driver updates go toooooo

http://support.acer-euro.com/drivers/downloads.html

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.)
