Hi guys. yesterday i installed windows 7 on my 5920g, however, i don't know what to do with empowering technology. Although launch manager is suggested by acer to be installed the other applications are not listed as compatible with windows 7..
I did download them though, and installed them, but at enet communication manager i got a message about known compatibility issues...So i wonder, if there is a compatible version, or if i can use a version of another laptop that originally came with win7 and if so ,which one..?

Got the 5920g too, I learned:
Don't install acer software, except launch manager.
Don't install vista drivers on windows 7.
Don't install old drivers.
Always look for newer drivers on the hardware manufacturer's site.
Get the newest nvidia driver from their site.
Remove any driver installed by windows update & set update to ask instead of automatic install. -
I wouldn't bother with the Acer software, pretty much useless apart from the backup software, all the utilities they provide can be found in windows, with the exception of launch manager which you've already said you've installed.
Did you install the Synaptics Drivers/Software. If not then the buttons on the right of the keyboard may not work, may not be a problem if you don't use them, but if you do, you would possibly need to install the Synaptics software in vista compatiblity mode for it to work.
