Acer Aspire 7720Z Operating System Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit) Processor Intel® Pentium® Dual CPU T2330 @ 1.60GHz Graphics Mobile Intel® 965 Express Chipset Family (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1) Audio Realtek High Definition Audio Networking and I/O Broadcom NetLink ™ Gigabit Ethernet Qualcomm Atheros AR5007EG Wireless Network Adapter Memory 2 GB We already tried clean install of his drivers, et reinstall, running et as administrator w/o windowed mode. TLDR looks solved, didn't look at first but come on 64bit system on those specs. Recommended to go back to 32bit.
