Answer 1

try checking it out here. the manufacturer website should have it.

you might have to install the chipset driver just in case.

Answer 2

Sorry about your problems but most users that have bought this type computer were not given any software disc's for the Operating System which is far beyond a very odd practice.
You will also find that any Microsoft Software requires a disc and an activation key to unlock.
This practice of acer's has forced users to go out and purchase a clean copy of XP or Vista and re download the operating system with a legit copy of the operating system that will then afford the user 2 things
A clean copy without all the added crrap that acer loads on thaere computers.
2nd It will give you support from microsoft when you access there site and they do a system scan and see that you have a bought and paid for legit copy of there Operating System.
