    Hello :)

    Goto this site:- http://www.sis.com/ You will have to use Internet Explorer (or IETab) for this site to work properly.

    Click on Downloads at the top on the green bar.

    On the right click on Identify The Model Numbers Of SiS Products on the right.

    Tick I Accept then click the button to carry on

    It will ask do you want to install two things, allow them both

    A screen will come up now with your chipset, and all the latest drivers for your hardware.

    Just download them one by one, either just the ones you need or them all :)

    Hope this helps :) ;)

    This is an old thread. Start a new one and give us some info about your Acer (Model #)

    Use Everest to get a report of your system’s hardware, OS, and drivers. Upload the report as an attachment
    Everest: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4181
    When Everest is done scanning, click "Report" at the top of the Everest window, click next to get to "Report Profile", select "Hardware related pages", click next, select "Plain Text", click "Finish". Then when it is done processing, click "Save To File". Save it where you want to. (I would use Desktop.)
    Click "Go Advanced" in the MG reply box, scroll down a little way until you see "Manage Attachments", click it, browse to your file, click "Upload", and close the window. Then submit the post. You may have to also type something in the reply box, like, "Here's my report.", so that it will submit.
