I have a few problems..

1) my 5month old laptop is giving me problems with the display driver. sometimes when i m playing 3d games, it will hang n asks me to download n install the latest driver or decrease my hardware acceleration in the error window. i tried installing the latest driver, but it says my OS is not compatible with the driver.. How can i make sure my OS is up-to-date?

2) What is a BIOS? n can i change/modify/upgrade it? coz now the error window(different from the previous) is mentioning somethg wrong wit the BIOS..


PS. i had not experience such problems for the 1st 3months (i manged to play the games that i cant play now).. the problems started around this 2 months..

try to upgrade your bios .. for ur model. u can find all acer model here ftp://ftp.support.acer-euro.com/notebook

flash bios at ur own risk .. remember attached charger when flashing bios and disable all unused services like antivirus. bla bla
