    After alot of consideration I decided to install XP on my 7520G, Ive installed everything from ftp://ftp.support.acer-euro.com/notebook/aspire_xp_not_authorized/aspire_5220_5520_7220_7520/ , except "IEEE 1394 Controller" and "PCI DEVICE". And the webcam (Acer Crystal Eye) doesnt work.
    I tried all 3 drivers listed on the link (Bison, Chicony and Suyin) without any success. I get up a wizard from windows to install "USB Video Device", but no matter what I do it can't find any drivers. I've also tried the driver's setup.exe. Also tried installing the apps.

    So my question is, does anyone know where to get these drivers? Mainly for the webcam, but the ones for PCI DEVICE and IEEE 1394 Controller too would be great.

    And is there any way you can get the Acer eRecovery and stuff for XP?

    Thanks for any replies.
