Good day

Normally with the dual load, the Windows 7 is the primary OS and then you downgrade to XP. However, once you downgrade to XP, the only way to go back to Windows 7 is using the Windows 7 Recovery discs that you should have created before downgrading to Windows XP. However, the procedure will be to click on Start, all programs, Acer eRecovery management, restore, completely restore to factory settings, click on, and you then get a pop up in the middle of the screen with Windows XP X86 and Windows 7 x86 options of which you can select one, click on ok, next, machine will restart and will start loading the OS that you selected.
