Hi @All,
I just installed Windows 10 on my Aspire Z5710 with NVIDIA GeForce G210 Graphics Adapter.
My adapter is named in the Device Manager now:
Microsoft Basic Display Adapter
Max. reachable Resolution: 1600 x 900
Support of HDMI Exit for Screen 2 - NOPE
Overall experience - let's talk about something diferent.
The NVIDIA Windows 10 Driver Package (v341.74) doesn't support - doesn't even recognize the G210 adapter!
Now I saw an entry in the GeForce Forum:
https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/860467/when-will-210m-get-windows-10-driver-/?offset=5
Message, very clear and straight:
Sorry...
Your 210M is NOT compatable with Win10 and has reached EOL (End of Life) status as of 4/2014. No further driver support is available after that date. This includes the 6000,7000,8000,9000,100,200,300, and some lower-end 400 series DX9/10 GPUs (including On-board and Mobile graphics)
I guess it doesn't matter if G210 or G210M.
Questions:
A) Any ideas how to get that dinosaur graphics adapter running better under Win 10 as of now with this **** Microsoft Basic Adapter?
Nevertheless, very innovative from ACER to launch an All-In-One PC in 2010 with at that time 5 years old graphics adapter technology . . .
Are there alternative graphics adapters availbale, so that I simply replace this old piece of technology?
Frankly, I would like to keep my Z5710 - running well and since I increased the RAM to 8 GB also fast enough. I am not a fan of replacing my desktop every year due to technology issues.
Many thanks
Martin
