Are you sure this is the model no. of your laptop and not your battery?
Doing a search on Google finds only batteries.
Acer also does not list this model (Acer TravelMate 4052NLCi).

| Thanks for replying JW.
|
| BTW, my laptop is just 8 months old
|
| Acer TravelMate 4052NLCi
| Intel Pentium M 726 processor (1.6GHz, 400MHz FSB, 2MB L2 Cache)
| 15" XGA TFT LCD
| 40GB HDD
| DVD/CD-RW combo
| 768MB DDR
| 802.11 b/g wireless LAN
|
| Looking @ the configuration i guess that vista should support atleast
| 1024x768 resolution.
|
| Further, the driver installed i guess its windows vista driver, and not
| intel. I was not able to find any latest INTEL video drivers for Vista.
|
| However, the driver which vista is installed for my Laptop TFT/LCD is
| "Digital Flat Panel (1024x768 60Hz)"
|
