  A look at the "front" face, under the lip of the keyboard, similar to where a lock would be on a laptop. There is here a cursor that is not a lock, but it is a switch that activates / deactivates him wireless on and outside. Slide it on until it turns on the light above it (with the logo of the antenna), indicating wireless is turned on and drag it again to turn it off.

  I have two Acer Aspire laptops.  They are totally frozen because of the virus.
  I lost the recovery of Windows Vista Ultimate Edition disc, where to get a replacement.
  I have to rebuild my laptop.

  Hello

  No - what are the two Acers come with a recovery disk?

  If this is not the case, one of them would have a recovery partion, which specifically is to reinstall the operating system on it.

  With an Acer, you press Alt + F10 at startup to start the recovery process.

  All data are lost when you do the above.

  And for the lost disc, contact Acer and ask them to send you recovery disks.

  They do that for a small fee:

  http://us-store.Acer.com/RCD/

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  Steps to take before you install Windows XP Service Pack 3

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/950717>

  It is stated in "How to obtain the latest service pack XP" is.

  If you have problems obtaining the service pack from Windows Update, you can download the package of standalone update from the Download Center.

  This page will say that this installation package is intended for it professionals and developers. However, you can download this file safely.

  The following file is available for download from the Microsoft Download Center:

  Download the Windows XP Service Pack 3 package now

  FIRST: Uninstall IE8 and IE7 if they are installed. Back to all the way back to IE6. You want other patches before you get those. Reboot after doing this.

  You are not the first to ask questions about how to upgrade a clean Windows XP - not even installation in the last week. In fact, I will just cut and paste my answer here... here:

  Get SP2 (manually) and save it to your desktop. (There's a link here.) [You are a COMPUTER professional for now.]

  Install it.

  Then restart at least a couple of times for a few minutes between each restart.

  Get SP3 (manually) and save it to your desktop. (There's a link here.) [You are a COMPUTER professional for now.]

  Install it.

  Then restart at least a couple of times for a few minutes between each restart.

  Download at least Internet Explorer 7 (if it is not Internet Explorer 8).

  Install it.

  Reset.

  Now, try to get the updates through the normal web page (http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/) and see how much more you can get (100 +) and keep checking until you no longer have.

  Back - let everyone know if it worked for you.

  Page 28 of the manual of your system describes how use the built in Acer eRecovery Management software to restore your system to factory settings.

  The manual is here:

  This article reads as follows:

  Recovery and restore features allow to restore or restore the system
  a factory default image, leave a user created image or previously
  created backups of CD and DVD. You can also reinstall applications and drivers for your Acer system.

  1. press on + or select Acer eRecovery Management of the
  From Empowering Technology toolbar to start Acer eRecovery Management.

  2. position yourself in the restoration and recovery page by selecting the button restore.

  3. Select the point of backup you want to restore from. You can also
  choose to restore the system from a factory, to retrieve a default image
  already created CD/DVD or reinstall applications and drivers.

  4. follow the on-screen instructions to complete the process.
