Hello All,
I have an Acer Aspire T120 Desktop PC. Unfortunatly, i had to do a clean
install a couple of weeks back. For this model, there are 3 choices of
Graphics cards on Acers website - An Nvida, ATI and on-board card. My PC has
no AGP card in it so i am assuming the one i have is on-board graphics card.
Tried installing the drivers and i get an error message "Set up was unable
to complete the operation. See log for more details". Look into the log and
it says "No display adapter for specified vendor can be detected, or
hardware detection could not determine display adapter type.". I have gone
into the advanced section of my display settings and Windows is using the
VgaSave adapter that XP uses when a display device cant be found. In the
properties for the adapter, under Resources, there are some conflicts:
Conflicting Device List:
Input/Output Range 03B0 - 03BB used by:
VIA CPU to AGP2.0/AGP3.0 Controller
Input/Output Range 03C0 - 03DF used by:
VIA CPU to AGP2.0/AGP3.0 Controller
Memory Range 000A0000 - 000BFFFF used by:
VIA CPU to AGP2.0/AGP3.0 Controller
Is this conflict the reason why i cant install the drivers. The only other
posibility is that there is another card in my PC, but it is strange that it
isn't listed on the manufacters website?
The error code for the VGA Display adapter is Code 28 (which according to
Microsoft indicates that i need to install the driver). Go into resources on
the VGA adapter and it says "This device isnt using any reasorces because
there is a problem".
Any help is appreciated.
Neil.
Note: The NVIDIA and ATI drivers also inform the same message - that they
cannot detect a suitible device.
