Acer V3, won't repair, won't boot from CD
Hi guys, this might be a lengthy post so excuse me for that.
Acer aspire V3-771G 3 months old, had windows 8 installed.
Okay, so about a week ago I started getting random blue screens including errors such as memory management, kernel security or display driver issues. So I followed the steps to reset to factory without loosing my files, this didn't fix it, so I tried to use the recovery software to do a complete wipe and reinstall,
this also did not work, gave me errors about missing or corrupt files, and the acer recovery aborted because I'd created an extra backup partition. At this stage I decided to use a recovery cd, which gave me the same errors and also corrupted my current install after the error, leaving me with an in bootable OS. So at this point I decided to create a Linux live CD , do a clean wipe and install windows 7, at least until I could get a copy of the recovery disks from Acer. But when I tried to boot from the CD, it was telling me that no bootable media had been found, despite the fact that I had tested this not 10 minutes before on my flat mates computer where it had worked fine. Now I'm sort of at a loss... Any suggestions ?
