Hi Mark.
Oh brilliant, Acer laptops are very good. Mine originally came with Vista Home Basic 32 bit, but soon upgraded to Windows 7, then 32 bit, when it was RC, or release candidate. I am now on Windows 7 64 bit Professional and is working very well.
Chat soon.

Chris, that's excellent news, thanks.  I have taken the plunge for a 64 bit
acer laptop and was hoping not to have to spend hours looking up the odd
driver.

Cheers,

Hi Mark.
Windows 7 is very good at detecting and installing device drivers. But
it gets better. If a suitable driver cannot be found it will search for,
download and install the latest drivers from the internet, all
automatically. So no need to hunt down drivers anymore. I was amazed
that I was able to just connect my printer/scanner up to my Windows 7 64
bit laptop for it to then go out and get appropriate drivers.
Chat soon.

Hi all.

Does Win 7 home premium 64 bit have any kind of plug and play ability?
Will
I need to find the drivers for my printer scanner, for instance, or can I
just plug it in and let windows find a driver for it?

Cheers,
