    Hello,

    I have an Acer Aspire V3-772G laptop running Windows 7 64-bit. Have had no problems so far, except when I tried to plug in an old hard drive which was working on another computer. It wasn't recognized by my laptop. I looked into the device manager and saw this:

    I tried installing a driver I found, supposedly for this laptop, called 'USB3.0_Intel_1.0.4.220_W7x64' and it gave me this message:

    Needless to say, I'm a bit confused. The old hard drive I think is USB 1.0... but I'm only assuming this as all of my other hard drives work fine.

    Thanks in advance!

    Jack
