Forum Laptops & Notebooks : Acer [Solved] Acer aspire one 522 no graphics adapter

Best answer from COLGeek.

Word :    Username :           
 

I have recently bought an Acer Aspire One 522 netbook that came with the Linux Linpus OS. I have since installed windows 7 but it doesn't seem to recognise the ATI Radeon HD 6250 graphics card (ie. in device manager, only "Standard VGA graphics adaptor" is listed under display adaptors).

How do I get windows to recognise and use the graphics card?

Thanks!

Go here, select the Individual Downloads tab, and install the drivers:

If 64-bit Win 7 is used, they are on this page:

Good luck!

Start a new thread and I am sure help will be provided. Adding what is essentially a closed thread will not get much viewing (and thus less help)
