Hi,

my acer aspire v3-5716 os is totaly destroyed. I have no CD/DVD with installation media. So where can I download windows8 media, how can I create USB installation media with UEFI support and how can I register windos to make it legally.

hi....

You can create a backup on a USB flash drive to reinstall Windows 8 on your system. You can use this drive to reinstall Windows or diagnose problems if Windows fails to start. You will need a 16 GB or larger USB drive.

PRECAUTION

• These steps will remove all content from your USB flash drive.
• You will need to disable power management settings before creating your backup drive.

SOLUTION

Use the following steps to create your backup drive:

1. Press the Windows () key + Q.
2. Type Recovery, and click Acer Recovery Management.
3. Click Create Factory Default Backup.
4. Select Copy content from the recovery partition to the recovery drive, and click Next.
5. Select your USB Flash Drive, and click Next.
6. Click Create. When asked to delete the recovery partition from your computer, click No.
