- Acer 5520
- NVIDIA Ge7000M video chipset
Bob provides a fairly clear description of the problem he and others are experiencing with the NVIDIA device drivers, Windows Vista, and the Acer 5520-xxxx:
[...] currently running the machine on generic VGA without any driver installed because that is all that will work. I've tried installing everything from 84.25 to the latest 169 version. Same problem; flickering during install and then either won't work and have to restart from previous good config or it does start and is stuck in 4bit color and 640 x 480 res. I've read all the FAQs, googled til I'm blue in the face and still no joy.
Help please!
Bob
