    my Acer Aspire R7 dosn't have an Operating System. I was wondering if there is a way to get one on it. If there is, is it easy?

      Have you checked if the recovery partition is still intact ?

       

      If for some reason you inherited a system with a Formated drive and Nothing on it, you should be able to use a regular windows 8.1 installation, then visit  the Acer Website for specific drivers.

       

      The technicality is that there is no DVD drive, so you would need to create a USB stick Windows 8 installation medium.
