Thanks it works for me too now I don't have sell. Does anyone know a site for the latest drivers for the chipset, vga, etc as well as bios.

Maybe there are updates to make this laptop go faster in games since, that site u mentioned is in chinese, if u can read chinese maybe u can look around and tell us anything newsworthy like driver updates.

THANKS!

please check out my website for latest driver update

Hi! the website is in Chinese. Anyone can share how to do it? What are the files that must be downloaded to update the bios? There are actually 2 files.

i've post it before
here is the link again--> http://www.mediafire.com/?7g7drmwtecb

I hv tried both, but my prob still doesnt solve
Any1 here got prob (system hang) when playing dota in winxp?

However my fren hv no prob bcoz he's using vista...
any solution in winxp?

hi! what is your bios version? mine is v 0.3610. Do I need to upgrade? To check your bios version, select run and then type dxdiag.
Thanks!

Set DOTA to run in win98 compatibility mode. Good Luck~!

Could the topic starter or mod compile a list of the newest BIOS and Drivers for this Laptop at the 1st page like the one about Compaq V3000.

Much appriciated.

o.o,gaming performance totally out of expected =X

I'm curious how u figure out that the 6100 would work, if it was me and I want to mess by forcing drivers I would atleast chose the graphic card with an "m" suffix. 7000m 7300m, etc.

Just wanna know if, even now, you really think this runs games better in your case.

Dear All,

Due to hosting company complaint that i abuse their server by allowing people to download the Acer server from my shared hosting server...

I had relocated to my own Virtual Server. But the speed is not that fast.... Hope you guys can bare with it...

I had updated the links, and you guys can download from this site:

I figured it out by spending hours and hours trying out many different drivers (including other 7 series). It all started because I wanted to play GTA SA on my lappy. Seriously I can't be 100% sure 6100 is the best for our lappies - I only judged based on 2 games I'm playing right now; C&C Kane & GTA SA with good and stable results so far. If you find out anything new please share with us as I can only verify 100% that GTA SA would not run with 7000M, also playing C&C Kane the performance were poorer with 7000M (compared with 6100).

Also the win98 compatibility mode is a tip I gather from GTA SA site, happens mostly on XP machines just to share with you.

Cheers~!
