    Hi,

    I have installed recently Windows XP professional SP3 on My Acer Aspire 5920 notebook , after that I faced a problem on installing some drivers and most of the utilities.

    Some of the drivers which I was unable to install are the audio driver and the modem even though I downloaded the drivers which supposed to be compatible with Windows XP from Acer website . I used this website http://www.acerpanam.com/synapse/forms/AcerDrivers/Aspire 5920.pdf?CFID=490253&CFTOKEN=19146384


    None of the utilities also worked with me on Windows XP except the Acer eRecovery Management software.

    When I tried to setup the Acer eAudio software I got the error message "This software can only be installed in authorized machine"

    I also tried to install the audio driver but every time it ends up with the message "This device cannot start. (Code 10)

    The audio driver is : Realtek High Definition Audio

    Please find below a summary for my Notebook specifications

    Thanks a lot Andy for your reply.

    I have already tried those drivers but unfortunately did not work.

    Attached is a snapshot of the device manager.

    I have ACER 5920 with Windows XP Professional SP3 with AcerEM_Acer Empowering framework_v2.3.4001_XP loaded.

    I want to load Acer eRecoverymanagement. Which version of eRecovery Management I should load?
