Hello I hope you are all fine. I have an issue with my acer travelmate 2940. I had it long time and I wanted to be used from my daughter. So I add two ddr 2 1gb ram and I run Windows 7 setup. Everything went well except my graphic card drivers. The latest updates from acer is for Windows vista. Is there any solution couse the video quality is terrible. Thank you very much Artemis from Greece Athens.

    acer.com shows no model 2940 at all
    you think n2940 is acer model , no it is not.
    that is the Intel CPU celeron chip inside ONLY.
    here is list of them all. no I can not guess
    but VISTA is HOPELESS no support now.
    support ended 2017 for Vista by everyone.
    the list is different outside USA

    that old PC is useless now,
    VIsta is no good, nor is the hardware any good for windows 10
    the resolution of the screen is poor
    for 2 reasons
    1: it is, on all old PC's (hardware LCD)
    2: or missing driver for video from defunct Toshiba.
    step one tell them what country you are in.
    YOU DID not tell us.

    the get the vista driver here.
    2940 is not sold in USA were we are.https://support.dynabook.com/drivers

    this old PC the service tag is on the bottom
    not on the top, ever. (the blue intel tag is not it) or the vista sticker.
    but most this old tags are worn off, now.
    so only going into BIOS screen 1 click
    information see what model it really is.
    my guess to busy to look.

SOURCE: Problem with Ati radeon graphic card

The ATI Radeon X1050 video card is unfortunately not supported by the game. You need atleast a X1300 to play the game. But you may try updating the game itself by going to the medal of honor website and download the patch. Then restart your computer and try starting the game.

SOURCE: VIA KT400 Chipset Driver update fried my ATI Radeon 9550 AGP Card

AGP is a bit old for win7, i'd drop it. that said, if the ati card is an addin perhaps your onboard (via) chip is causing the problem. turn it off in your bios so that the install never even detects it and use drivers from ati.

Why my acer 2940 always stop function and the screen become colourful

You will need to do some trouble shooting to figure out the reason.

Plug your laptop into an external monitor and try to use it, if it runs fine then the problem is with the video card, if it stops responding then there is an issue somewhere else.

Since you said the screen becomes colorful I am guessing there is an issue with the video card, but it could be over heating.

Hi this is prince here from Bangladesh. i have a laptop that is acer travel mate 420. a few days ago its display is not working properly. some times it turn into various color. so what can i do?

Hi Prince, has your laptop experienced a squeeze or fall recently? I have a few suggestions. Plug another monitor into the VGA or DVI connection on your laptop. See if you are getting the same problem. If everything is working fine on the external monitor you would have eliminated the drivers being the problem. I suggest getting the LCD display changed. If your laptop is under warranty, you can get this done for free. However, if it is not under warranty you may have to replace it either yourself or take it to a local Acer specialist. If you chose to install the new display yourself, there are handy tutorials on removing and installing the screen on the Acer website. I have noticed that many times the Acer TravelMate Notebooks have experienced display issues. I hope you get your problem resolved soon.
