    Hey Guys,

    I am having this problem where the buttons on the right side of an acer 5920 (play, stop, forward, back, record) are not working under windows 7 32. Also just recently the red record button has been staying on :S and I can't seem to turn it off :(

    Any help would be much appreciated :)

    Ok so I managed to put the launcher software on and the buttons on the left work, but still the buttons on the right do not function under win 7.

    Is there any way to turn off this annoying red record light!!!!

    Hey Bangert,

    Thats awesome thanks! I remember trying the vista ones and they didn't work, so I just went and got it off synaptics site. But of course it makes sense now that they are bundled with touchpad which means I need a custom acer driver. So I will try it in compatibility mode.

    Thank you very much :)
