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 '

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

Windows Vista Ultimate Edition started cutting the computer when certain usb devices are connected
I had this platform for a few years with no problems. Last week when I went to sync an ipod (which I had already done several times) it abruptly shuts. I can it restarts, but when I try to sync the ipod, same thing happens, no error message full closed. Also, I noticed that when I am attaching other devices such as an external hard drive or a blackberry it stops. Today, he does even without fixing anything. All of these devices were working very well. I have disassembled the computer, cleaned all fans, removed all dust bunnies. I have an ASUS MB, cpu temperature seems good. I think it's a software/driver problem. The thing is I have not installed anything, System Restore does nothing, all the usb drivers say they are up-to-date. All USB ports are affected, even most directly on the MB. Anyone had this happen? I think buying windows 7 and try it because I don't want to replace the motherboard, I spent $$ on this a few years ago, raid, etc. of liquid cooling.
It should last me awhile longer, last year the food out crapped (dust bunnies blocked fan), I replaced with a 1100 watt tagan. This system had worked great for a year, so I don't think it's a matter of P/S.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hello:
As the title says, I have recently updated my new hard drive, I got from Dell's Windows Vista Ultimate Edition of Windows 7 Professional. I don't have the product key for the Express upgrade, so I'm unable to activate my copy. The last time this was back in 2009 when I bought the Express upgrade, so I don't know what I did to fix this problem.
I appreciate any help you can give me.

Acer aspire laptop does not turn off
Original title: acer aspire laptop
I have intermitat problelm of I cannot close my lap top down he vist and is fully updated no error messages come it said just blocking down on the screen only to close down is to press and hold / switch help is appretiated
Hi Markprentice,
· Since when are you facing this problem?
· Remember to make changes to the system?
· Have you defined a plan of power on laptop?
I recommend you perform the clean boot.
Put your boot system helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.
See the following article in the Microsoft KB for more information on how to solve a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

I have reset my laptop and I don't have the set up cd, I have the license key for vista ultimate can I download
Hello
"I reset my laptop."
What do you mean by that?
There are several methods to reinstall Vista.
There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.
You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.
They should do this for a small fee.
To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:
You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:
How to change the Boot order in BIOS:
http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm
"How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246
And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.
The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)
Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.
Ask them to the proper key sequence.
And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.
Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.
If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.
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 once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.
And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

My situation is that I have a laptop that is a Windows 7 machine. I have a need where I'm considering purchasing a CD of Windows Vista operating system. It comes to be able to use the Interface of Windows Vista? I have a technical support of experience under my belt and I remember that if you need to have a different operating system available that you can use this operating system without installing it on your system.
I really could use a version of Windows Vista now my educational purposes. My current computer has Windows 7 home running on it right now. Could you or someone give me Options to work with. I'll look forward to your response.
Thank you
Gary
