If your asking which driver you would need for your CD Drive. The answer is you don't need a special driver for it. If it's not working then you could try cleaning the laser lens with a CD laser lens cleaning kit. If that doesn't work then you need to replace the CD drive.

SOURCE: Where to find Acer Aspire 4715z driver for Windows 7?

Acer aspire 4715z does support Microsoft windows 7 but Acer doesn't release any driver till date. so, it's almost impossible to get the driver for windows 7.

but there's a way to work out.

just download the driver for windows vista using the link below

http://www.acer.com.au/acer/service.do;jsessionid=4CABD6FF9BC3961EF92EA7451A95FC04.public_a_14c?LanguageISOCtxParam=en&miu10einu24.current.attN2B2F2EEF=3112&sp=page15e&ctx2.c2att1=92&miu10ekcond13.attN2B2F2EEF=3112&CountryISOCtxParam=AU&ctx1.att21k=1&CRC=3559666452

Follow this step
Select Product Family : Notebook
Select Product Line     : Aspire
Select Product Model  : Aspire 4715z

All the driver will be listed below, by default the driver listed is for microsoft windows vista Home premium.

Download all the drivers that you need.

Now, install those driver meant for windows Vista in windows 7, Most of them or all of them will work as 90% of the driver meant for windows vista works fine with windows 7.

Now, make sure you have internet  access through a LAN or wireless network.

Download "Driver genius pro" using the link below

http://rapidshare.com/files/270454654/Driver.Genius.Pro.9.0.0.180_by.tano1221.rar.html

Install the software and let it update.
This software has a huge database of drivers and I'm very sure you will get the latest drivers for the operating system i.e windows 7 in your case from the chipset manufacturer sites directly through this software.


It will most probably solve the drivers problem.

SOURCE: Aspire 4520- Windows 7: Webcam does not work properly

windows 7 has a compatibility program built in for addressing those issues from the previous operating system(XP)

go to start and in the search window
type in compatibility
this program will help you by running the program to test its functionality,
it will bring up a list of programs and ask you to select the program your having issues with,
then it will give your operating systems and service packs to test against,
at the end it will ask you if you want to save these settings.Y/N?

If the program runs ok then save the settings and it should continue to work from there.

Shut down and restart should embed these settings ,
Test again for function,
If no luck run the program again

You say that your system is dual booting,why?
windows 7 leaves XP for dust,
remove xp its taking up valuable space on your hard drive and possibly interfering with your systems operations,

Normally the hard drive will only allow one operating system on it,even if you have partions.
Fine tuning is all your looking for so let us know your outcome thanks

If you do a windows back up
which system is it going to back up?
normally it will write over the last backup you made and the new one replaces it,

Cheers MISTERDJ

Acer aspire 4520 updaed to windows 7 SP1 i have tried with so many driver for wlan atheros rg5000eg but windows says error code 10 device cannot start, Could you help me to solve this?

I suggest you plug into the internet using an ethernet cable and then open the device manager and ask it to search for an updated driver.

I just had to do that with my Windows 7.

If you can boot up with the external USB hard drive on your Acer, then use a working computer and copy the Windows installation CD onto the external hard disk then connect the USB externak hard disk to the USB port on your Acer and boot up using the external hard drive.

If you have installed the chipset driver, you could locate the producer of the CD/DVD ROM, and check if there is drivers to download from their homepage.

Surely to load XP is a DownGrade. As this notebook is dual core, I would run Vista 64 or better still Windows 7 64.
If you wish to persist with an old system, you require SP3 for XP.That may be available from a software store but is no longer supported by Windows.
Try http://www.notebook-driver.com/laptops-information/acer-aspire-4520-notebook-technical-specifications/ for drivers that you will require to have support from Acer.

Hope that clarifies your situation.

I have aspire 4520 acer laptop.after formatting c drive and installing xp sp-2 ,audio device is missing,kindly advice the solution?

You need to install the support programs for your laptop motherboard. These are also called your "laptop driver software" which is usually shipped or packaged with your laptop. In this CD or DVD Installer, all hardware devices must be well supported by their compatible software drivers.

Now look for the CD/DVD Installer and install the drivers.
