    HI Friend,

    Windows 7

    Creating a set of  Recovery Media

    If your computer experiences problems that are not recoverable by other methods, you may need to reinstall the Windows operating system and factory-loaded software and drivers. To reinstall using discs, you must create the set of recovery discs beforehand.

    1. Click on Start and then All Programs
    2. Click on the Acer folder and then on Recovery Management. This will launch the Recovery Management application

      Click on Create Factory Default Disc

    3. The Create Backup Discdialog box will appear and provide information on the number of blank media that is needed for the recovery media.

      Insert a blank disc into the drive indicated in the Burn To list and click Start.

    4. The Recovery Management application will begin the process of creatingthe recovery media.

      The disc will be ejected whenever it has completed burning, if multiple discs are required insert a new disc when prompted and click Ok.

    Note: If the computer does not have an internal optical drive, an external optical drive will be required to create a set of Recovery Media.

     

    Windows 8 units

    Your Acer computer includes Acer eRecovery Management software that allows you to perform restore operations directly from your hard disk drive, allowing for a faster recovery process and no need for discs. Acer eRecovery Management does, however, allow you to create recovery discs. The recovery discs will allow you to restore your computer should something happen to your hard disk drive.

    Note: Depending on what Acer computer you have your version of Acer eRecovery Management may look slightly different, but the option to create your discs will be available.

    To create your backup recovery disks follow these steps:

    1. Click on the Start menu and click All Programs.
    2. In the program list click the Acer folder, then click the Acer eRecovery Management icon.
    3. Windows User Account Control may ask for your permission to run this program, click Yes.
    4. From the Acer eRecovery Management window on the left click Backup, then click Create Factory Default Disc.

      Note: If you are using a notebook or netbook you will be prompted to plug in your AC adapter, make sure the AC adapter is plugged in before proceeding and click OK.

    5. From the Create Factory Default Disc page select the drive you want to use for burning the recovery media, then click Start.
    6. The disc will be ejected whenever it has completed burning, if multiple discs are required insert a new disc when prompted and click OK.
