Hello and thanks for the good work ! I still have problems on some of the drivers you provide: Graphics card driver doesn't work had to redownload Nvidia driver and put the custom inf. My wifi card needed another driver (intel 5100/5300). And finally i can't download the bluetooth driver it keeps crashing after like 20mb ....

Thanks for your report....
btw, for VGA driver, you must install it using "Have a disk" method...(I will make a tutorial about it)

Mirror for Bluetooh driver available now..
try to download from mirror link :)

Driver for WLAN Intel available... :)

try "UPDATE 2" I hope it will work :)

HOLY COWS !!! THANKS DUDE!!!

ok.. the nvidia drivers are not working for me. i went through all the steps you described, but after i select the inf file and click next it spits out an error telling me to find the other files it wants. The files are there but windows does not want them.

Are these XP Drivers for 32bit or 64bit?!

Hi. I just order a new aspire 6935G. Sadly I discovered that it only comes with F....G Vista. I have it on 2 computers, NEVER again. So can I use the same drivers as for 6930 when I change to XP and will I get everything working on it?
Bogdan

Many thanks!

Any chance you can do all of this for Win XP 64-bit? I have dumped Vista and installed my XP 64-bit so I can access all 4GB of my RAM. Now I having A LOT of trouble finding the X64 drivers for my Aspire 6930. Thanks in advance!!

Hi, i just downloaded the drivers and tried to install Windows XP.

I used a install cd with a sata-driver from my Acer Aspire 5920 but this don't work. Windows stops the installation with a bluescreen.

Do you know which sata driver i has to include to the installation cd? If you can upload the driver it would be very nice :P


mfg friese

ps: sorry for my bad english xD

Hello Friese,

I think if you go into SETUP when you first turn on computer (using F2, I believe), you can change from SATA to IDE in there and get your operating system installed. That's what I did, anyway. :)

Yeah, i know, but then you can't change back to SATA because Setup says that your hardware isn't compatible to SATA...

And XP is only the second operating System only for Games...
So I don't want to change this.

Friese

Ahhhh... ok.

I have found that most of the drivers listed above work for the Windows XP 64-Bit. However, if anyone is around and can help, I still need the video drivers. I think the modem driver is missing, too, and something else, but I don't care about those.

Thanks for any help, in advance.

maybe.. some of them.. but I will make a post about Aspire 6935 soon...

The video board driver can be found directly in nvidia homepage.
Works perfectly.
What I´m looking for now is a way to run the subwoofer.... does anyone knows how to do it??

Hi again... I really appreciate the effort... but my 6930 does not have the Nvidia video card. Mine has the Intel GM45 video. I have been all over the Intel website and several driver websites and cannot seem to locate an XP 64-bit driver for this GM45. Here is what the Acer site says about my video and audio:

Mobile Intel® GM45 Express Chipset with integrated 3D graphics, featuring Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD (Intel® GMA 4500MHD) with up to 1759 MB of Intel® Dynamic Video Memory Technology 5.0 (64 MB of dedicated video memory, up to 1695 MB of shared system memory), supporting Microsoft® DirectX® 10.

Of course I realize that DirectX 10 is a VISTA thing and 9.0c is good for me with XP.

As for the audio, I have sound now. I don't know if it is all of the sound I am supposed to have (HDMI or whatever it is called), but I have sound. Basically, from what I can see, I just need a video driver so that I can set my resolution to higher than 1024 X 768 and so I can have 2 screens show up in display settings enabling me to EXTEND my desktop to a second screen... and since this unit does not have S-Video, I will have to go out of the HDMI port to a TV so that port needs to be recognized by XP Pro 64-bit, as well, correct?

I could be WAY off here... as I have had little sleep in the past few days. :)

Thanks!!

I love y 6930g but of course, i have 2 problems with it. My DVD-RW will not burn CDs bu it burns DVDs and secondly, the eSATA port runs about 10 times slower than a USB port. What can i do? Is there i firmware update or some special driver for the eSATA controller? If anyone else has the esata port and tested it please post a feedback. Could it be the BIOS setting IDE/AHCI that prevent the writing of CDs and the performance of the eSATA ?

ps- when you install the driver 179.28_notebook_winxp_32bit_beta from UPDATE 3 you also have the option to install high definition audio drivers. Cheers!

i have acer 6930g , ofcourse it came with vista and i want to change the operation system to xp, i've downloaded all the drivers from this site. now i've got to get all the empowering technology softwere, can anyone direct me , where can i download it to my 6930g computer. thanks

I have acer aspire 6930 bought in australia. Do my acer is bundled with software or drivers? MOst computers has a bundled softwares for their laptop.

Thanks and more power! ;)

Hi again... and final suggestions before I strip off XP PRO 64-Bit and use the 32-Bit? I will only have access to 3GB of my 4GB RAM, but it doesn't seem that there are any 64-bit video drivers for the Intel GM45 video chipset/video card this unit has. Everything else seems to be working good enough. It's a shame I can get the video extended or the resolution any higher than 1024 X 768. Thanks again for any ideas you may have.

Oops... I mean... "Any final suggestions?". :)

Where can I download Empowering Technology utility for XP for 6930? ))

Yeah I am just looking for an alternative to Eaudio management it made the speakers sound soooo good any suggestions?

the bluetooth driver for window vista doesnt work can you update it please?

Hi. First of all I'd like to say that the work You've done is just brilliant. All the drivers worked for me fine, The only thing I couldn't get to work is that when I use the touch panel above the keyboard nothing appears on the screen. Any ideas why?
Thank You

does anyone know where can i get acer Utilities for xp for 6930g? on acer website i can only find the ones for vista. thanks

I am having trouble installing windows xp 32bit. After the install screen and the reset, it just re-starts to the beginning. Anyone have clue? I'm stunned, no clue what to do anymore.

if you could email me with the answer tgoral84@gmail.com

thanks -tom

Thanks for the XP drivers! I have only one serious issue. The Intel HD HDMI drivers will not work no matter how hard I try or how I follow the manual installs to the letter. It was on the Vista install. Is it a sequence problem of driver installs?

Hi, could anybody tell me where I can find correct "empowering framework" and others utilities for 6930G? Thanks in advance....

There is still the "Modem Device on High Definition Audio Bus" driver missing... i tried all the drivers above, none of them works

using 6930 with winxp 64bit

I've downloaded somewere this: sp33839.exe, is an HP modem driver and i forced the installation (obviously u must unpack it in a folder), i dont mean to test it now but the test in device manager was succesfull. Yet sill i have the damn "audio device on high definition audio bus" and i cant make bluetooth work.

btw, grats for this more than eccelent job, we all are in debt with you

another issue:
in device manager, if a enable the view of hidden devices, in the 'not plug and play' devices i have one named 'serial' with the yellow "!" sign.. any idea about it?

If in device manager, PCI is with "?". Uninstall device (right buttom over device). Then "update devices change". Then reinstall the sound driver. This worked for me!

I just got aspire 6930-6455 for $550 from Staples. I have to say it's worth the money for now. I have some software do not run on vista. So, I tried to install XP(32bit), but I'm getting the death blue screen. I can't even use XP(64bit) because my software do not run on it. After googling around, I'm getting the impression that ASPIRE 6930-6455 cannot take XP(32bit). Has anyone found a way to install XP(32bit)?

you must press F2 in open screen and enter to bios after that you met go to the main tab.. Select Sata type (This is originally AHCI) you must change this value using F6 key, and press F10 for save and exit... Your problem is solved like this ;)

Hi guys,

Thanks for all the support. Just a few things I've noticed:

For audio drivers, the ftp sites dont work. You can download the drivers via: Realtek Software

And I couldn't install my webcam so I searched for Bison Camera Driver under Windows XP and found: Lenovo Support
Download Bison Camera Software

Good luck and keep up the good work!

Thanks

I got subwoofer working by using the drivers from Acer support page - yes, they work in XP as well.

Hi - I have recenlty bought the Aspire 6930g... core duo 2ghz.. 4gb ram.. 512 geforce 9300m GS... etc.. I have followed this guide to install XP which i have done and it has worked perfectly! Thanks for the great Tutorial with driver links. I just have one problem unfortunately... i have installed Crysis and unfortunately it runs terribly. I expected it to run with all settings on HIGH and to run perfectly as you would expect it to from reading the specs... but its the opposite. It lags and jerks and i can barely move around. My mate has a pc with similar specs... 2gb less ram and also a 512 geforce but earlier model, yet his system completely smashes Crysis and runs on full specs without a glitch... please please could someone help me out as to what the problem might be?? Im desperate and very disappointed :( Hope someone can help... Kind regards, Alex

i got one question... in bios shows me that i got 4GB RAM but in my Win Xp shows me that i got only 2,99 GB RAM...can someone help me with that? what i do wrong?

I think mine doesn't work
thanks

For your acer must have win xp 64bit version to recognize the 4gb ram

Hi.
I got an Acer 6930g for Christmas and have had frequent problems with what I think is the subwoofer. The sound on the laptop starts crackling over the top of music I have been playing. I identified the problem as the subwoofer by adjusting the levels of output on the Sound menu from Control Panel. After a few minutes the crackling may disappear, or sometimes I have to restart the laptop. Any help as to what is going on and what can be done to solve it?
Thanks in advance.

Where are empowering programs with Vista 32 Bit?

Not sure if this gets read still. I'm feeling that the sound of the notebook speakers has been a lot more powerful on the pre-installed Vista than it is on Windows XP with the Realtek drivers listed here. Is there any more specific driver for the sound hardware?

I've just got a 6930 with Vista Pre-installed .. YUCK!
I gave it a quick wirl with a usenet version (8 in 1) of Windows 7 and all appeared perfect but wifi kept dropping.. Anyroads, I don't want beta sw!
I've been laboriously installing XP now, fishing drivers from around the world, and I've "almost" got everything working, except for the bluetooth.. I tried you donwload and it said "device not found, shall I contiune anyway).. I did, and, obviously it doesn't work. I'm just wondering IF the 6930 has bluetooth or not? It has the ICON on the pretty black face-plate, but that's no proof, is it!

i also agree the speakers dont work as well as they did on vista.

can anyone help me with this? sound feels flat and less powerful.

im sure its because i dont know how to enable 2.1 sound, which is what the laptop uses as far as i know.

please help

i fixed the sound issue! simply download the vista sound driver from this page, its also for xp. PERFECT SOUND!

-------------------------------------------------------

If you installed windows vista just normally from a bought cd or anything else you should download the sp1 for it then you will see the 4gb of ram. But still when you enter the task manager you will see an active ram of 3 gb so there is a little glitch or something cause I bought this laptop with vista home sp1 and that suppoted the 4 gb of ram completely but when I installed vista ultimate I got the problem that he doesn't recognize all of my ram in task manager.

Hi2

Re: I dont understand how your installing XP on a laptop that can only use Vista?


normally windows XP unable to detect SATA AHCI Hard driver configuration... so you should slipstreaming AHCI driver (for 6930 Download here) and follow the tutorial here (Slipstreaming driver - nLite) it will make Windows XP able to detect SATA AHCI configuration.

Hi, windows xp installation went fabulous and the rest of the drivers work except for the lan atheros one. when i try to install it, the wizard starts but then claims the driver inf can't be found, yet continues to install but fails.
any help? i'm a total noob at this and i've googled everything haha.

Like everyone else that has used this great Blog, I've had success in getting rid of the dreaded 64 bit vista and got back to my trusty XP. However, like most of the others, I have a couple of glitches. The first one is after installing XP, my card reader ended up as drive "C", my optical drive as "D" and my hard drive as "E". Is there any way of reinstalling XP and getting my hard drive to come up as the "C" drive? My other problem was with the Sata drivers. I tried slipstreaming with NLite, but it wouldn't work. I tried using Virtual PC 2007 to test out the iso files, but they load only as far as half way through the "Installing Devices" point, and then just stop. No error messages or anything. If I make an SP3 iso file using Autostreamer, it works fine. However, you can't slipstream drivers with that. Has anyone run into this problem? Is there any way around it? I'm running in IDE mode now, and that's not really a big problem. However, I would prefer Sata if I can get it to work.
Thanks again for the super info on drivers.
Bill.

EMPOWERING TECHNOLOGY ON XP?

Well, I fixed the Sata problem. It was NLite that was causing it. I noticed a reference in this Blog about a free slipstreaming app called XP iso Builder. So, I decided to try it out. It worked just fine. I loaded the .iso into Virtual PC with no problem, so then, I burned it to a CD. That loaded into Virtual PC as well. I haven't tried it on my Asire 6930G yet. I'm waiting to see if anyone can come up with a fix for my drive lettering problem.
Thanks again for all the info.
Bill.

Guys this is a great tutorial... but im having trouble using an EXPRESS CARD firewire adaptor on my 6930g... what drivers do i need to use the express cards.

cheers, Ross.

Huge on laptop audio. However when I recieved the computer I switched the driver to the newer Audio_Realtek_6.0.1.5704_VistaX86, however the bass just went dead, the sound is around 70% the volume. With the previous driver the sound quality was amazing with extreme bass however like previous posts I would get moments when it would go out and start crackling and i would have to restart.

went to realtek website and downloaded the 3 day old 2.24 driver and now my bass shakes walls XD hopefully it wont crackle ill keep this updated *happy camper*

help having trouble with the sound driver it keeps saying failed to install.

I got the bass to work on my 6920g, I went to acers website and into the download drivers section looking in the divers for the 6530. I did this because I noticed there is a tube under the screen on this model and I thought it would have been their earliest 6000 series notebook with possible xp options. It just so happens that if you click the drop down for the operating system (which is right under where you select the model) you will see that windows XP is selectable. So you can select XP as an operating system and then download the audio driver.

For me, installing this driver added "internal subwoofer" as a slider in my mixer options. This brought all the bass power back when I would slide it up to the top

Sorry my bad English but I am Italian.

I have acer Aspire 6930, my touchpad not working. Could you help me to solve this problem, please help.

I just wanted to post to let you know that I am running a Macbook Pro and installed xp 64 bit recently. I was able to find all drivers except for the wirless card driver. I searched and searched and tried probably 50 different drivers but with no success. At a last attempt I used one of the drivers listed here and it worked!!!!!! you have made me so happy and I think this is a wonderful site. thank you thank you thank you.

Hello everyone, i have an acer 6930 with some sort of graphical issue. on almost any game i play, at some point the screen goes black and i must ctl alt delete, tab back into the game and it works fine again. I know for a fact that some drivers are not working properly and i don't know why. I tried downloading the link

"Vista driver 64 bit version fir
intel graphics driver

winvista64_15124.exe

link

http://downloadcenter.intel.com/confirm.aspx?httpDown=http://downloadmirror.intel.com/17409/a08/winvista64_15124.exe&agr=&ProductID=2879&DwnldId=17409&strOSs=&OSFullName=&lang=eng"

When i tried to install it it says my system does not meet the requirements.... fine.. so i followed the steps in the readme for the manual way to do it. I extracted the exe, went to device manager, selected my nvidia geforce 9600m gs all the way to where i get to choose what to install the driver to. It comes up with 4 options of chipsets like intel 4 family or some stuff. I can't see it now as i got a blue screen after installing it to the one i thought was the right one..

So here is the money question, why is it so god damn hard to install this video driver, is something busted in my computer or shall i attempt to find out what kind of chipset i need to install this to?

my remote control on my acer 6930g on vista is not working...what can i do?

Wondering if someone could help me out. I'm trying to connect my video camera to my aspire 6930 but need an IEEE 1394 port..after searching there is no such thing on this computer but I did read where I could use the esata port? Any ideas?

Can someone confirm that the Express card interface works? When I insert a express card it is not recognised by windows XP. The only error I can see in device manager is Modem Device on High Definition Audio Bus shows device driver is missing.
I have seen a post somewhere that implies that this needs to be working for the express card expansion slot to work.
Can anyone help?

I have an issue with 6930g that the express port does not work. When I plug in a card it is not recognised by XP. Device Manager also shows "Modem Device on High Definition Audio Bus" with a yellow question mark. A search on Google

I have sorted the Modem issue by loading the Foxcom drivers. But it still does not see my firewire 1394 express card when inserted. If I do this on the same laptop with Vista it detects the card. Does anyone have any ideas.

i have been downloading my drivers for the past one month but yet still i cannot install it especially with the wireless {all}
i really need help please can some one help me out and also the remote is not functioning

" I have sorted the Modem issue by loading the Foxcom drivers. But it still does not see my firewire 1394 express card when inserted. If I do this on the same laptop with Vista it detects the card. Does anyone have any ideas."

I finally sorted the firewire issue. It turnned out to be the model of express card. I replaced the card and every thing seens to be working.

FIX: Audio Device on High Definition Audio Bus

I spent a lot of time on this problem and figured out that the intel VGA driver (from the Acer site or from above which might be fixed now) is not a good file.

Basically,you need a driver for the video and a separate driver for the HDMI out port. A missing driver for the HDMI out is what is causing the referenced unrecognized device.

The "complete" Intel VGA driver is supposed to contain:
* Graphics: 6.14.10.5047
* HDMI Audio: 5.10.0.1048

As stated, the HDMI Audio is missing from the above (and from the Acer site).

So, to fix, download the comple VGA driver from intel.

Search for the following file: winxp_14383.exe

This is basically the complete Intel driver for the GM45 express graphics chipset. I guess the 6930 also has an nVidia based chipset as well which this driver would not fix. Recommend that the site owner update he intel driver file at the top...

I found a solution on bluetooth problem :)
