Acer C301-302 and Windows 7

[Giuseppe Chillemi]

(Ooops, I have written to the nearly dead ACER forum so it is better to write to this one. Please do not consider the other post.)

Hello, I have upgraded to Windows 7 my C302XMi.

At the beginning many drivers have not been found. Then windows Update found everything apart the VGA drivers and something to enable the keyboard Bluetooth, Wireless and other buttons.

It has Intel 855GME chipset. I have read in another topic that someone found a solution installing another driver and then reverting to this one.

The problem remains with the buttons: I hit the Wireless one and nothing happens ! I cannot connect to the network.

Has anyone a solution for my problem ?

Thanks in advance

I was able to solve my problems.

Now I have the correct video drivers and screen rotation.

It took me about 3 hours to complete everything and there are even good tutorials on the steps needed to achieve the result.

I know I can't post the links but if the Administration give me the permission I'll do.

One question: the only remaining thing is that "special buttons" like "screen rotation" and "wireless on/off" do not work. I have to use the ACER Utility SoftButton. Is there anywhere an old WindowsXP utility which maps those buttons ?

Thanks in advance
