    This is a good news, bad news scenario… Acer say’s that they will not support updates for the 2008 Ferrari laptop calendars. :confused:

    However I have found that the Vista version Screen Saver files not only include the Screen saver files, but the desktop calendar files for 2008 as well… These are available in both 1280x800 and 1680x1050 Screen resolutions… :D

    AOM: Ferrari Wallpaper- While Acer supplies these wallpapers for the Ferrari 4005 only until August 2006, we now have made these wallpapers for the desktop calendar for 2008 and ...

    Is it possible to use this wallpaper on other Acer models? Doesn't seem to want to extract (created a "FerrariWallPaper" folder in my Window's directory but when I try to extract the Ferrari folder in the RAR file I get errors?).

    Yes you can use these wallpapers on other acer models, the process is just different. All you need to do (XP or vista) is unrar the file to extract the wallpapers then place them in C:\windows\web\wallpaper. Once you put them in there then you can select them like any other windows wallpaper from the desktop properties. :)

    Figured as much so I did that. With the Ferrari models, do they appear differently or just "flip" automatically each month?

    I don't understand the error you are getting; this file is a direct download rar file. Download it then use winrar of 7-zip to unrar the file. You shouldn't be talking anything about a torrent as this isn't a torrent.

    Here is the direct link to the english instructions just click on "Ferrari2008.rar" then unrar the file.
