• Acer aspire 5742 goes from black to a screen that says acer enter startup f2 then back to

  My acer aspire 5742 doesn't start correctly, it goes from a black screen to a screen that says acer enter startup f2, then alternates between these two screens.

  Right now I have managed to turn it on and I'm in the treatment of support up to an external hardrive.

  I rang acer support and they told me I did this install windows 10 (about six months ago) and although he seemed fine, it was corrupting the (motherboard? I think that's what she said). the lady told me that I should restore laptop to factory settings.

  Can someone please confirm for me that's what I have to do?

  The fact that you were able to start normally after F2 in the bios menu, F9 to re - set the bios to factory default then F10 to save this setting, the default BIOS * strongly * suggest that the bios was losing his in the memory of the specific hard drive that was installed.

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  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

• Since my computer says my password is incorrect, and I can't find my disk how can I reinstall Windows 7? It requires a password to start

  My system rebooted since an update and when I tried to enter my password it says that it was incorrect.  I tried to enter my old password and that has not worked.  I have searched everywhere for my password reset disk and can't find it.  I went on the internet to see if there was anything that I could do and he said that I have to reinstall Windows 7 on laptop.  I tried and the first thing he did was ask for my password that he rejected.  The other user can login but is not an administrator, so she can't help me.  I ran full system antivirus and it says that my system was safe and no virus found.  Is any help available?

  No, you don't need to a password to re - install Windows, but I don't think that such a drastic measure is necessary. Let's focus on the issue of opening of first session. There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:

  • Restart the computer with your Windows repair CD, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if you have recently changed the password).
  • Log on to your account admin to spare, and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you set up an alternative admin account).
  • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
  • Insert your flash drive USB with password key file (works only if you have taken the time to create such a key file and you can actually locate).
  • Use the password indicator (works only if you have created a hint and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
  • Check your paper files (only works if you threw down the password somewhere.)

• How can I reinstall windows xp when the computer does not start and there is no cdrom/dvd drive?

  I have an Acer netbook aspire one.  It will not boot past the windows logo.  I have a windows xp disc to reinstall windows, but the computer has no CD or dvd rom.  Can I copy cd of windows xp on startup SD memory card and reinstall windows?  Or can I run connect the non working pc a working PC to access the cdrom on the work pc to reinstall windows?

  First of all, you are mistaken when you say that the PC does not start.

  This is clearly starting. The problem comes from Windows, not with the real PC. It's actually a very important distinction!

  There are methods to repair Windows, but they can be a bit tedious. By all means, follow the advice given here to do if you're so inclined.

  If you would not rather to repair Windows (and I think it's interesting a try) or your repair attempts are unsuccessful, apparently, you would need to use an external optical disc drive and follow the instructions here:

• Reinstallation of microsoft office home and student 2010 once laptop back to factory settings

  We will have our laptop sent through for repairs in which technicians will be restore to its factory settings.

  I currently have a MS Office Home and Student 2010 installed & activated after the purchase of a product key and download & install the software. I've save a backup of the installation file and, of course, will ensure that I don't lose my product key.

  I just want to ensure that I can reinstall MS Office in my laptop after that she is undergoing a complete restoration of the system. My license only allows me to install/activate MS Office on a single computer. I ask because I have no idea how the activation process will know that I am simply reinstall on the same computer or if a full restore of the system would make my laptop be "recognized" as another.

  All the signs are pointing me to be able to do this. But I don't want to not ask. Please confirm that I have nothing to do except save my product key and the installation file.

  Thanks in advance.

  As long as the repair does not have to replace the motherboard in the laptop, you should be able to reinstall the Office product without any problem.  Just ensure that your Win XP operating system is upgraded to SP3 before trying to install, as well as to remove any office trial programs that may have been resettled when the restoration was done.

• How can I reinstall windows after new HD, but don't have windows or recovery discs, I have valid Vista COA and the product key

  I have a laptop Acer 4720 with valid product key of Vista Home Premium OEMact and COA label, my problem is the HD is broken and I need to install the new HD and then reinstall windows, but I have not all disks (was on the recovery partition which is good), so what are my options? Can I use any family Vista Edition installation disc Premium and then activate my license key?

  Hi again,

  You use the product key on your computer case with the Installation DVD Microsoft process.

  As I advised alreasdy, recovery from other manufacturers discs are of no use for this

  The only thing is that you may need to make a phone Activation, do it this way and not use auto invite, but hold the line for a person to physically respond to your call.

  I would advise not to download an ISO of Vista on the Internet, you will find that they are pirated and malicious programs containing versions changed.

  The DVDs are not available from Microsoft.

  When I informed 'borrow' that's what I meant. a friend, acquantance workplace, etc.

  Or if you know someone with the same model of Acer and Vista operating system, you might try their recovery disks.

  See you soon.
