    IPEX wide screen admin notebook PM 1.7GHz Win2000 512RAM DVDRW dual layer and an Acer XD1170D DLP projector.

    I am having a lot of trouble getting the above two to work.
    Message on projected image is: "input not supported".
    I have changed the display settings and tried a number of different ones
    - no success.

    The notebook has an ATI mobility radeon 9600/9700 display driver 2004.
    Downloaded a later driver but that would not install. message: "setup
    display adapter with a standard VGA driver before running setup"

    The Acer people say there is a problem with the notebook, the IPEX people
    say it is a problem with the Acer projector.

    The projector works on other computers. The notebook successfully outputs
    to a monitor.

    Does anyone know of a solution?
