Acer Aspire V5 - 122P: Windows 8 Local password recovery or boot from USB
Hello world
Really need help. I fear that I will lose all my data on my hard disk to get my computer working again.
I don't know how, but somehow the password to logon Windows 8 was changed. I can't do anything even if I'm in the advanced recovery options.
I created a USB key to book my V5 Aspire 122P, but I cannot book from the USB key.
I have not created a password reset disk in advance.
I chose the option to rest my pc while keeping my data, but windows 8 still asks for the password and does not accept the password that has always worked for me.
Really scared... If I lose all my data.
Well want to can someone help?

I got myself to solve my problem. It would be very useful for someone else, which is why the announcement of the update:
1. first click on the SIFT-restart, I went advanced options and refreshed my pc while keeping my data.
2. This allowed me somehow, in advanced options, I could go to the command prompt without system asking me the password I forgot.
3. once I was in the command prompt, I followed the following steps:
http://pcsupport.about.com/od/Windows-8/a/reset-password-Windows-8.htm
4. I was able to reset my user password.
5. I had to go through installing windows again - not a big problem
6. all my programs have been removed. I had to reinstall them for example MS Office, Cisco VPN Client, Skype, Chrome
7. my data were available under the user name
8. deleted data has been placed in the windows.old directory I was able to easily backup.
So - Thank you God Almight - life is beautiful again.
It will be useful.

Hello
Here is the Vista Forums, you send messages to.
Vista doesn't do not part of the update free Windows 10, so 10 would not settle.
The free update is for 7, 8/8.1 and 10.
See you soon.

Acer aspire 5610z installed windows 7

* original title - acer aspire 5610z installed windows 7, do factory restore vista family premium, how can I get rid of the windows7
You should have done a clean install of Vista's Custom, deletion of partition of Windows 7 during the process.
If you use the recovery disk from the manufacturer, contact them as to the correct way.
This isn't their recovery process, Microsoft...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you use a Vista DVD, read on:
If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):
At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu
Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

Super Guide Windows Vista Installation
After installation > go to the website of the manufacturer of your computer/notebook > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > get latest Vista drivers for it > download/install them.
Save all data, because it will be lost during a clean installation

Unable to boot from USB or ODD after that windows 8.1 update on P850 - 31L
Hello
I just updated a P850 - 31L for windows windows 8.1 8 by the windows store.
Before the update, I was able to boot from a USB key by pressing F12 during the boot upward.
After the update I was more able to boot from the USB drive. Select the USB key by changing the boot order in the setup of the BIOS via F2 or pressing F12 is no longer works.
Booting from ODD also is no longer possible.
The version of the BIOS is 6.70 and does not secure boot must be disabled. However the DVD and the USB I tried are signed Ubuntu 12.10, who worked before the upgrade. Fastboot in windows 8.1 is disabled.
Then, this seems to be a bug in the BIOS Toshiba? Or a windows 8.1 update the BIOS or the boot EFI in a way partition replace the BIOS setting? Really stuck here, does not seem to be much information.
Any ideas or help would be very appreciated!
Thank you
Michael
Update: I just tried to boot from the DVD of windows recovery 8 Toshiba and this does more or the other.
Post edited by: michael_toshiba_forum
OK I fixed that.
First of all, it is to note that it is possible to turn off secure in the 6.70 BIOS startup.
However this option is only available when the password is not defined in the Security menu.After activation or deactivation of the password a reboot is necessary to make the secure boot toggle option is available or not.
It's good that I guess I assume that it can prevent secure boot are disabled when the machine is running. However this does not seem to have been associated with this problem.
I selected the option "reset to factory defaults" in the output menu.
The machine is then able to boot from USB and DVD. The boot order was also respected.Perhaps upgrading windows 8.1 corrupt invisible somehow the BIOS settings. Or maybe it was just a stranage coincidence that the BIOS itself corrupted during the installation. Anyway this factory reset fixed.

Can't boot from USB on laptop Acer NC-V5-571. another boot enabled is bios, but and I tried to boot from usb DVD etc. (starting from things that works on other PCs. I've set USB and DVD as a priority higher from startup in the BIOS. I get the alternative start menu, choose DVD or USB, but it starts just Windows 8.
I tried to boot from an external device in settings PC - general settings in the charming bar, but it starts off directly with Windows 8 too. the DVD plays fine films, and if I plug the boot device dvd W8 sees them and their content because I expect too much.
Any ideas on how to boot from another device. I would like to take at least a decent backup using Acronis.
Thanks in advance for any help

Boot from an additional media under Windows 8, you will ensure that you have either disabled Secure Boot or changed to UEFI in the traditional mode. The following articles describe how to do this.

Recently I bought the new laptop HP AMD E1-2100 unfortunately I Format C drive and install the new window 10... Now I have installed window 10 but I do not use the window 10 because it is not perfect as window 8 or 8.1...
I want to reinstall window 8.1 Bootable USB on my laptop but it does ' t boot from usb even I changed the Boot order... IE
USB floppy disk hard key/Usb
USB CD/DVD drive
OS boot manager
Network card
Please suggest me what I do?
A key USB bootable you have created by recovery media creator?
Go into the BIOS, use the tab of the System Configuration.
Enable Legacy Support.
Plug the USB key into one of the usb ports.
Press the F10 key to save the changes and exit.
Now, press the F9 key to select the first boot option.
You should see the USB key as one of the options if it is in fact a bootable flash drive.

Acer Aspire 5720Z with Windows Vista does not start in Windows
Hi, I had an Acer Aspire 5720Z who begins to give me the infamous error at startup, which brings you to the display of the Startup Repair tool. When it ends, a pop-up window message saying "Startup can not repair this computer automatically" happens. I tried all the options in the Windows Vista environment, but at the end he continues to display the same message and startup windows repair cycles over and over again. And I'm unable to restore, because there is no restore point created. However, I could get details of the problem and we hope that this information, someone here can direct me to what I do, since all the data of the disk are there, it's just that here I have a kind of corruption of the file to be replaced. Here is the analytical error:
Signature of the problem

Hope someone out there can guide to say which file I need to replace in order to restore this laptop. I hate having to reformat for this little problem, since all the files are there.
Thanks for your help and assistance.

I thought someone here would have developed an idea for you on this error to fix it now.
You can try this:
Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.
Restore point:
Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.
Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...
Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:
Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.
Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.
At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.
When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html
Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.
NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.
Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:
http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/
ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html
It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.
You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.
It is NOT a disc of resettlement.
And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.
See you soon.

I already upgraded my Acer Aspire One 0725-10 Windows. However, it seems to be an incompatibility with some of my courses installed applications and drivers that several questions. Microsoft support reviewed my concerns and concluded that a clean install of windows 10 would be the way to go. Before doing this, it would be probably good get applications and drivers that will be needed after the installation. If anyone can provide me with a list, it would be greatly appreciated.
Most of the drivers will be updated by windows update when connected to the web.
on the applications, I think that Acer launch Manager is required to use the Fn keys:
but... I read some discussions on the issues on windows 10 with Acer launch manager, worth a try to install.
to check if all the drivers are installed and work properly, after verifying that all updates are installed:
Key of the Windows logo + x
Click on Device ManagerIf the yellow exclamation point is present
Double click on it
Choose the tab "Details".
in the drop-down list, select HardwareIDs
Click the first value and paste here
