I have an acer aspire 5102AWLMi laptop it has;

AMD Turion 64 mobile technology MK-38 (2.2 GHz, 512KB L2 cache)

Up to 256MB ATI Radeon Xpress 1100 HyperMemory

80GB HDD. Actually its two 33GB partitions

DVD drive read and write

Came with 1GB of ddr2 ram I upgraded to 4GB

It is running windows vista basic 32bit seevice pack 0

 

I don't know what's important so I put everything,

I have the factory reset and a snapshot from 2007 backed up on dvds.

It had like 300MB left on the C: (windows) drive so I reset to the 2007 snapshot. That was all fine and dandy until I told windows to look for updates to the graphics driver.

First it had a dialog saying it was searching for updates

Then it said it had finished and told me to restart the computer which I did. It shutdown ok then said windows jad it shutdown properly and to use system repair which in turn told me to use system restore. That finished and told me to restart then it which i did except it told me to launch startup repair again which failed but gave me the option to restore from an earlier point in time which also failed.

Wat do?

 

This was done on my smartphone which i'm bad at using btw

Do you know what's on your other partition? Is it another OS?

It's just videos and music etc, I've restored it back to 2007 but I want to update the driver without messing up the whole computer again, is there another way to install drivers?

Well, I would suggest manually checking Acer's website to see if they have drivers for your computer, as the generic graphics card manufacturer graphics card drivers can cause really strange issues on laptops due to non standard installation in the laptop (For example, on my Dell laptop if I try using ATI's drivers for my graphics card it conflicts with my Wireless drivers)

Oh well it seem s they don't, anyway thanks for the help.
