Download Everest free edition http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4181.html so we can identify the graphics card as its not listed in the scan. Install and run it and you should see what graphics card is installed under computer/summary.

Yep you need this driver for your graphics http://www.zdnet.com.au/downloads/0,...057651s,00.htm. Download and run it and then reboot, it should be ok then.
Just curious what the graphics problem is with the computer?

Everytime I go to page press Download now, I get

THE PAGE CANNOT BE FOUND

I'll keep trying.

The writing on the screen is fuzzy. and everything is too big. The resolution is stuck to the left and will not let me change it.

Try this link instead. http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/GRA...15E-3075.shtml

still same

CANNOT FIND PAGE

hate computers

have a look here http://www.acersupport.com/notebook/html/tm270_dl.html

what made the graphics go all funny in the first place?

did you not get a driver disc with the machine?
