You probably want the Synaptics Pointing Driver for that.
I carn't honestly say its something i've ever used, hope you can get it working.

Windows 7 on the Acer Ferrari 4000 Laptop [Drivers and Info Inside]

Thanks for your quick reply Insanenutter... I had tried Synaptics and it at least got the scroll working on the touchpad but not for the button. It's not a terribly big deal though, I'll just have to get used to using the other methods. Thanks again for your help throughout the forum.
Thanks
Thanks so much for all the help in this forum guys.. It's nice to finally see a post about Ferrari 4000 owners. I have a quick question..
My current version of Windows is Win XP x64, and I had so much trouble with drivers. Is it true with the Win 7 64bit version?
I already bought win 7 32 bit, there shouldn't be any problems to install that right?

What drivers did you have trouble with on XP 64bit? Acer provide all the drivers on there website for it.
Honestly, install Windows 7, run Windows Update and the only thing you should need to install is the card reader drivers above. It really is that easy!

What do you think is better, the 64bit or 32bit of windows 7? I mean we can't take advantage of that extra ram since we are already maxed out.
Ive used 64bit Windows since Vista was released, theres no downside to it... I know a lot of apps are still only 32bit however you will usually get a performance increase when running 64bit applications compared to if you were running the 32bit version of that application.
If your hardware supports it why not? Windows 8 will be 64bit only so the world is going to have to go 64bit sometime.

need help or comments
Hi guys, I really need some feedback in regards to using two different types of RAM.
I have attached a picture to this post. I have one with 200MHz and the other at 166MHz, PC 3200 and 2700,
Would this affect the performance of my laptop?
Thanks! any feedback helps.
Furthermore, how come from this system info test, it says that the maximum capacity is 4096MBytes?

Is this when you are using the laptop or when its idle?
If its when your using it the laptop is probably over heating, Everest Ultimate can monitor the CPU temps, mine was getting to 100 degrees then the laptop would simply switch off, it turned out the CPU fan has failed, thats happened twice to my Ferrari now... right pain to get it fixed.

whats ur setts on ur computer insanenutter
If i can find the mouse I will test it and see if it works, I never honestly used it though. I didn't find it to be that responsive or like the feel of it. I ended up buying the same USB mouse I had for my computer.
I don't understand what you are trying to say?

whatever but what is your specs?
You can see them in this thread.
I have got some much nicer speakers since then and upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate x64, however the rest of the PC is the same.
Please discuss PC specifications in the thread I linked to as this topic is for Windows 7 on the Acer Ferrari
@InsaneNutter:
You are my last hope! At first, I´m from germany so please apologize my bad english.
I´ve installed Win7 and Win7 x64 on my Ferrari 4005 in feburary! Everything works fine, I upgraded my RAM to 2GB first. But now I´ve problems with my Firewire-Port und sometimes the PCMCIA-Card (the Device Manager says, that both couldn´t start!).
When the book is turned off for nearly 10h or something, the System couldn´t start the Firewireport und the PCMCIA.
For me that´s not a big problem, but the worse thing is, that the start costs a lot of time. Maybe the System check the Hardware first.
The System load until the Windows fly in, then the HDD stops to load, nothing happened for nearly 2 min and then goes normaly on, but then if I look in the Device Manager there is a problem with the OHCI Texas Instruments 1394-Hostcontroller an sometimes with the PCMCIA-Card. I just installed the card driver from the first page, but it´s no use.....
When I started then again, it starts normaly without the 2min "waiting time" and I have no Problems in the Device Manager! The Problem ist, as I told, only when the Book is turned off for an couple of hours. The Problem exists on Win7 and Win7 x64. I don´t know, if its an Hardwareproblem....I think its an problem with the driver, but I tried many things, but nothing solve the problem.
Maybe you have an idea? Thanks a lot.

Hello. My bluetooth Mouse work perfect in Windows 7 (and i believe the irritant lag as decreased a bit...), but since Windows Vista, that was a trick that you need to know to add your mouse... a really stupid trick, but it works. You need to add your mouse in the normal way, like add device in the bluetooh options, but when the system is installing the mouse, you need to press the left and right buttons, rapidly, alternately until the the install ends, and the mouse should work immediatelly.
