time when you are running Microsoft® Windows®.

Technology > Acer eRecovery Management.

Reply to mcsquared | 43 hoopaholic, on Aug 4, 2009 12:32:26 pm BSTSome acer netbooks with the solid stae drives ssd do not have the recovery e recovery option. use the recovery dvd which came with it.both the linux and windows are dvds not cd rom.so it will only work on an external dvd drive..i bought a cd rom one first,,no luck,,got dvd one.works smack on, put recovery disc in dvd drive after you connect dvd drive to netbook.turn off netbook.when the acer empowering sign comes up,press f2 scroll to the right.boot option.change the order of the boot to usb drive, do this by going down to it,then press f5 till its on the top.then press f10 to save and exit. netbook will boot from dvd drive..follow on screen instructions to reload windows or linux, its the same for both..windows has 2 discs start off with the system disc,then it tells you when to change disc. the linux and xp revovery discs are dvd not cd rom.remember this..ext cd rom wont boot from..dvd will Reply to hoopaholic | 67 JohnJay, on Sep 22, 2009 11:57:49 am BSTYou are AWESOME!!!

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU FOREVER! This didn't only help me now, but it'll help me in the future if something similar happens again, not to mention that my aunt has the same PC and she knows nothing about PC's, this will be useful for her too!
THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!! Reply to Ana |

| 68 RelievedUK, on Sep 24, 2009 9:50:54 pm BSTXpcman.......THANK YOU. My son's Acer Netbook displayed this error message <windows root>\system32\hal.dll. and your alt f10 trick seems to have worked, my only concern is that I have no idea what caused the problem in the first place and as the machine is still under warranty (it's only 6 months old) would it have been better to send it back? Could this happen again?
Any advice much appreciated. Reply to RelievedUK |
