    Hi,

    I want to install vista on my AAO but almost all topics I read people install it from USB sticks or usb dvd players... Isn't it possible to install it with just mounting the iso like on other computers?

    And where can I find the drivers?

    Thanks...

    As an upgrade, maybe, but as a fresh installation I dont think so.
    How do you mount the ISO image after a reboot if you dont already have an OS?

    the drivers for wireless and more are on the official acer download page , and on this forum .

    as for the mounting , you can do it , but then you won`t have the option to reformat the disc or change any partitions . a clean install through a USB is much better , IMHO .
