hello all,
i coudn't find any post about that metter, so here it is:
the VGA driver (6.10.14.4926) coming with the ACER ONE isn't supporting windows 7. therefor, i get the
no OPENGL thing when i'm trying to launch an 3d game on my acer (D150).
i was diging to find that kinda of VGA driver in INTEL's site and also in ACER site. but there is no such a thing..
has anyone managed to sort that thing out?

MS drivers really don't support OpenGL as far as I know. So what you do is download the VISTA version of the GMA 945 driver found at the INTEL website. Install it in Windows 7 in Windows Vista compatibility mode, and don't forget to run as Administrator as well. There you go, you now have OpenGL. ;)
 
i've tried that, the outcome was an opengl driver but a horrible screen resolution.
the fonts where blur. i reinstalled the original one. anyhow the graphic card cannot handle 3d games.
thanx anyway.

Then you must have done something wrong, since that work around WORKS. That's what I did on my Windows 7 (build 7077) and it can handle OpenGL games now... played Unreal Tournament 2004 and Quake 3 Arena. ;)
