What Drivers would i have to fix or install if i installed windows vista on my acer aspire one?

Q. dont tell me if i should or should not install windows vista....<----thats not my question. i just want to know what drivers i have to install or fix? and will my wifi work because most ppl who installed windows vista on their acer aspire one had problems with the wireless internet connection.

A. I would dare say that they would have more problems than just the wireless... for one thing, the acer aspire one (which I have one of my own) does not have resources enough to run Vista reliably, system requirements for Vista are a MINIMUM of 2GB ram and the one maxes out at only 1.5GB. The unreliability of Vista running with the choked 1.5GB would be nerve wracking at best. I have a dual boot with Ubuntu netbook remix 9.04 and love it...its even much faster than XP, and no need for the anti-virus either, which is a major help freeing up system resources. UNR works 100% with the aspire one, straight out of the box.

How do you fix Windows Vista Internet connection?
Q. Okay here's the deal. My laptop's internet connection has been acting stupid lately. It says that it cannot find any networks when all the other computers in the house are finding networks. I tried to fix this using the Command Prompt but it didn't work :/. I have the Windows Vista program if that helps. Can someone please help me?

Thanks

A. I have had experience with VISTA (I manage over 300 PCs!) and it can be a bugger sometimes. What I found was that the easiest fix was to download the latest drivers for your network card and install them. That usually fixes the problem - since for some reason the drivers become corrupted but do see to work as in show up ok but not connecting properly.

If you want to know how to check what network card you have then let me know. If your PC is a branded one you can just go to their website and download the correct drivers.

What's the difference between windows vista 32 bit and windows vista 64 bit. Which is better?
Q. What's the difference between windows vista 32 bit and windows vista 64 bit. Which is better? Also why would they rellease the 64bit version knowing that a lot of applications aren't compatable with the 64bit. Also drivers as well can not be downloaded for the 64bit because it isn't compatable yet. When will this be fixed? It just doesn't make since they would allow the 64 bit to come out with all of these conflicts with other applications,drivers, etc....?

A. Windows Vista 64 bit is designed to run on 64 bit hardware. With 32 bit hardware you can only have 4GB (actually 3.3GB) of RAM whereas with 64 bit you can have 128GB of RAM. This should help you just a little. Others will finish this for you.
