Anybody got an Acer 531 running vista?

Nickk · 2009-09-30

Im selling my AAO A110 because i need a bigger hard drive, because i need to install visual studio.net 2003, Adobe CS4 Master Collection, and also i would like windows vista. i have used this all on an A110 before and it run perfectly, but i have came across what seems to be a new model of the A110, im tempted to buy this as its only £230, but i would like to know if anybody has one of these, and successfully installed vista on it? ive searched the forum and there doesnt seem to be Any information on this model. If you have, did you just use the original XP drivers, are the drivers the same as the A110 ones (i understand it has the same hardware and chipset etc, just diffrent casing). If not what did you do, what did you need? i need information people! It is the Acer Aspire One 531 (not the pro version, picture below).
