Hello
It's a desktop PC.
They are not normally active wireless.
Normally, you will need to buy a wireless card or a USB Dongle of Wireless to do this.
Here is a link to download a manual for your Acer PC.

And its specifications.

I have an acer aspire 3690 I am trying to restore to factory settings and is only let me go back to a certain date all I want on that, that's what org. came on the computer and the internet I do not have any disk
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.
Doing so will scan all your personal data and when you did, I think you need to configure your Internet connection again since the factory settings are unlikely to know everything about your current installation of Internet.
If you experience a problem with your system, I think I would fix rather whatever is the problem, but here's what Acer has to say about it:
The manual is here:
http://support.Acer.com/us/en/product/default.aspx?modelId=5
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.

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.

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:
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.

Acer aspire m1640 computer of office cannot recover from hard drive failure
Hi, have a problem with my acer aspire m1640 computer to desktop running vista home premium. The hard drive failed completely, so I installed a new one, realizing I need a new operating system, I bought a new copy of vista Home premium (upgrade version) without license number the supplier told me that my original license number on the case of the m1640 would be ok. When I insert this disc I select cd/dvd-rom in the menu of the bios, enter the country and the language ect, support on continue, and I get a box on the screen saying, can not find the cd/dvd rom drivers. also my new hard drive is not displayed in the bios boot options. I'm starting to think that maybe I need the full version of vista. some advice would be greatly appreciated.
Michael
You should contact Acer and purchase their part back the Vista Home Premium Upgrade recovery media to your provider who gave you the wrong information anyway. You will not be able to use Vista Home Premium Upgrade with the product key on your computer. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!
