Acer C720 Graphics Drivers ( Intel HD )

Hi,

I have been trying to get Windows 8.1 working on my Acer C720 laptop (chromebook) as have many others, we have been able to get it mostly working aside from video acceleration, which when the Intel graphics drivers are installed results in the screen appearing blank, if a monitor is plugged into the HDMI port there are strange lines across both or one of the screens which react to mouse movement etc.

I was wondering if this could be some kind of problem with the drivers for the 2955u and if so any help getting correct drivers for it would be greatly appreciated, I will try and post a picture at some point. I realise this is not the norm, but users who want to run windows have nowhere else to go as a licence agreement between acer and Google prevents them from giving us Windows drivers themselves. Although strangely the Linux drivers work fine on this device :Sproblem

Regards

Hello ABagOfPotato,

Let me help you with this.

There is some information I would like to verify first to provide the correct drivers or steps so can you please post your dxdiag report here?

How to get it?

Hi thanks for the quick response, here is the information requested, at the moment I have to close the laptop so that it disables the internal screen and then the HDMI port works but it seems to no longer detect the other screen afterwards,

HI ABagOfPotato,

Thanks for the information.

Here we have a special situation. The laptop you have supports the Chrome Operating System. This means that you can try loading a different Operating System but the internal components on the unit have been designed to work with the original Operating System therefore at this point, the best option is to contact the Computer Manufacture and confirm with them if Win 8.1 can be used with the system and if so, they should be able to provide the drivers for the computer.

Our drivers are generic drivers designed for branded computers so there is always a chance that it may not work properly or at all with OEM systems.
