How well does windows 7 work on it? As its only got 8mb gfx.

How about drivers? Did you use Acers xp drivers?
Seems fine at the moment, installed all the drivers itself. Just gonna do a "Windows Experience" test to see how it rates.
Edit: Stock machine, no extra ram (yet) got the following 4 me...
Processor 2.2
Memory (Ram) 2.0
Graphics 2.2
Gaming Graphics 2.7
Primary hard disk (160GB) 5.5
So more ram should boost it a bit.
Would i be able to buy a cheap cd-rom drive to install xp as i think the usb stick method is a little beyond me:FRIGHT:
Cheers Curly, so i can just buy that cable you linked to and use the cd/dvd drive in my pc,obvously disconnect it from the pc but still use the pc psu to power it?You can get a usb to ide/sata lead. They also do a power supply so that you could use an old cd drive out of a pc.
Something along these lines m8
I'm sure I've seen a complete kit on the bay for under a tenner.
USB 2.0 to IDE hard disk CD/DVD-Rom 2.5 3.5 HDD Cable
