Hello, can anyone direct me to all drivers for this laptop please? I looked at one page here but it is only showing a "Touchpad" driver?

Need win7 drivers for Acer Apsire 7560 Series Model P7YE5?

I see now why I could not find the 32 bit drivers on the Acer site, I see that only 64 bit drivers are available for this on there?

Anyway, I will easily reload win7 and choose the 64-bit version this time so I can use those 64bit drivers.

No, Mike, it's not okay. The 64 bit drivers won't even install on a 32 bit system.

No, Drivers designed for 32-bit versions of Windows don't work on computers running 64-bit versions of Windows.

Well wait a minute there are exceptions. Cindy is 100% correct however if there isn't a 64 bit version of the driver then and only then will a 32 bit driver work.

I've never gotten a 32 bit driver to work on a 64 bit OS, Rich.

Cindy it was more true in the early days of 64 bit when there just were no drivers for some components. Still happens occasionally with a mouse though I never install mouse or keyboard software unless the keyboard has power keys. Same way with programs. We install 32 bit versions of Firefox or Chrome because there are no 64 bit versions.

I've never had a problem with the programs, just the drivers.
