    I have an Acer Aspire 5542-5812 and about six months ago I started having problems with my drivers. The digital authentication is no longer working. I have purchased the win7 software from Acer and reloaded it onto my machine more than once (a total factory re-install) but it has made no difference. When I load a program called Logos 4 which uses 2G of RAM (I have 3.75 available) my machine starts to crash (Blue screen of death kind of crashes). Has anyone managed to fix these kinds of problems? Is there any kind of diagnostic software for the hardware of this machine I can use to test it?
