Reinstalling Windows XP Acer Aspire One

Hello,

Last weekend, I bought an Acer Aspire One D-150. I decided to put Windows 7 on it. I can not find a copy of Acer's eRecovery Management anywhere on the internet. I have tried making an image of the hidden partition with Macrium Reflect but it's not bootable. I still have the hidden partition on my HDD, I just can't boot to it. if I hold ALT+F10, I get a "Change Boot Options" screen.

I want to return this on the weekend because it was sold to me under false pretenses (I wanted an MSI model because it's better for me in a lot of ways, but they lied about the warranty on the MSI to get me to spend $50 more on the Acer). I need XP on it. Help? I need to install XP.

Configuration: Mac OS X
Firefox 3.5

Dear Sir,

Please note that if you re-install XP you will lose all your data,

You will need the Windows XP installation disc!

Please do not forget to change the SATA mode on your bios!

Then you will need to boot the windows xp disc and follow the instructions!!

Install Windows on the C: partition

thanks

I'm know the asus has xp on the same recovery partition. You need to disable the fast boot function in bios first, then boot holding f9 to restart the xp install.

What's with the stop shouting comment. Don't be a baby, shouting is in person and this caps lock shouting thing is pathetic. The person needs help so if you want to help, fine, otherwise don't respond. If you want to know what shouting is i can show you in person. Get over it.

Hi,

did you manage to reinstall using recovery??

I did it for Aspire One 150X, by
start->bios prompt->Alt-F10-> recovery starts->the rest is up to you

Good luck

Restoring using alt + f10 worked great.

Please visit www.oemsoftwaresource.com

They have a support page for reinstalling your OS.

They also have OS disks for sale if you need a back up.

Good luck!
