Reload of Windows 8

ACER E1-571 my son crashed, likely due to download something nasty, and now Windows 8 will not start. I can get via Safe Mode but cannot perform a complete analysis of McAfee. It also won't let me reset/refresh or use system restore. Before considering repair I was going to try to use a backup file from a USB key (pending for a 32 GB USB to be delivered). I have an ACER V3-571 model and I intend to raise the back of my computer - it will work on my son's pc? I downloaded some instructions on how to boot from a USB key. (The two laptops are only 18 months old)

I guess I can use the "My disk Image" ACER backup manager function to create the Windows 8 save file?

See you soon.

Update for those who can benefit from my experience.

I bought a 32 gb USB DRIVE (£13) and has taken up a return from another computer ACER (V3 571) and reset the defective pc (Aspier 1) following advice elsewhere on this site. Everything came back, including the drivers, but (fortunately) not the virus if that's what it was. 58 Windows update files should be downloaded - for those who have to do that I could download in a go but you must be patient because it took 30 minutes to download and 25 others to install. Drung download the meter indicates 0% for the first 20 minutes before suddenly springing to life, so do not be tempted to cancel until it ends.

Happy days and lessons learned by the son wandering on the questionable files downloading.

    If the machine came originally with Vista, and you charged it with Win 7 disc by the same manufacturer, it will go into a grace period and the non-genuine end - the key used for this installation requires data appropriate to the SLIC table in BIOS in order to activate it.

  • I bought my Dell computer in 2012 and had to reload my Windows 7 but my product key at the bottom of my computer

    I bought my Dell computer in 2012 and had to reload my Windows 7 but my product key at the bottom of my computer is worn and I was wondering if it is possible for Microsoft to have a copy of it.

    No, unfortunately.

    But since you bought a Dell computer, it provides a DVD of free relocation for each model, which is a clean copy of the OS without the bloatware factory but just a logo and a standalone activation.  Order here: need backup Media? Reference Dell U.S.

    I would not use the drivers disk unless you need to install the driver of LAN network to get online.  Instead, follow these steps to clean reinstall Windows 7, install all your Important and optional Windows updates until no more are available, so all still pilots missing in Device Manager must be imported from the Web page of the Dell Support downloads for your tag number.

    Other than that if you still have the recovery partition on the disk Dell and it does not start after restoration of PC Dell Windows 7

    Then, you can try to run it manually after the recovery Partition to start using EasyBCD .  This also activates the self.

  • Why can I never hear sounds after I reload my windows xp on my computer?

    whenever I have to reload xp, everything works but the sound

    Hi jfleidy,

    If you reload XP if often as you notice a minor problem like that, then you really need to focus on why you need to reload XP so often rather than the absence of sound when it happens.

    If I had to guess, I would say that the drivers on the disk are more compatible with XP (especially once the updates and service packs are installed), or the default configuration has, for some reason, the value of having its active or disabled.  The method by which resolve you the problem - and what is (I guess you can fix or are the lack of sound, why you reload XP again and again hoping that will fix the problem) should help identify why it occurs first.  If you can't fix it and that's the reason why you are reloading again and again then the problem is likely drivers or it could also be a hardware problem (very probably the sound card).  First update the drivers.  Contact the computer manufacturer to see if there is a diagnostic tool to test the sound card (or it may need to be repaired - and your options may depend on whether the card is a card separate or integrated to the motherboard - and the manufacturer should be able to say that both).

    In any case, you really need to repost it here for assistance: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-system?page=1&tab=all&tm=1300700638376.

  • new Member needs help, reload Programs window 8 and origanal Acer Iconia W700 in

    I messed up my computer by installing windows 8.1 and everything went.  No keyboard more, Acer ring etc.  I want to just this 'thing' to the way it was.  It didn't go back or restoration available and do not send a set of discs, although I have a portable hard drive that might work, if there is such a thing as available backup discs.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Do I have to send this thing to the manufacturer, is it a seller out there that makes this service, etc.

    TKS

    Hi JHRolfe

    When you say ' it didn't go back or restoration available "do you mean there is no recovery partition ("eRecovery")? If you restart your machine & press logo Acer ALT F10 & - this should take you in the eRecovery mode where you can restore your computer like new.

    If your keyboard has stopped working, see if you can borrow someone's USB keyboard and try from there.

    If all else fails, then Yes, you will need to send it for repair. Chat with Acer for your area by going to the Web site, click on "support" and then "contact Acer".

    Good luck!
