    I will migrate to Vista Ultimate 64bit SP1 soon.
    So I need drivers for my 5920G.
    I've search around, and finally I found this link:
    http://support.acer-euro.com/drivers/notebook/as_5920.html

    But, is that really a driver for Vista 64bit SP1? Or is it just for the old Vista 64bit? (not for Service Pack 1)? or it's all the same and won't have a problem if installed to 64bit SP1?

    Does someone has another source to get the drivers?
    Thank you in advance.
    Best regards,

    MysteryE

    I don't think you'll have any problem using the existing 64bit drivers. I'm not quite sure why ACER provides Vista and Vista SP1 drivers but IMO it should work with any Vista version, with or without SP.

    I've got the 5920 myself and have used both sp1 and pre sp1 drivers from the site and can't tell the difference. I've had no issues using either. With the card reader, you need to use the driver listed under 32bit, works ok.

    If you wanted to get the drivers elsewhere, you would most likely need to go to the manufacturers website of the device you are trying to install, and download the drivers from there.

    Thank you for your information. I'll try these drivers then.
