    Thanks for the prompt response

    I installed the realtek audio driver, but that doesn't seem to be the problem as the throttle still doesn't work. I will try again anyway, just in case.

    As per the IR driver... do you know where it is? I had a look on the Acer website (UK) but I could not locate it :(

    Would you happen to know if there also a driver for the touchpad, as the scroll function doesn't work either..?

    EDITED: Found them. For some reason I could not find these drivers on the Acer webstie a couple few hours back...
