Why reply then? You obviously don't know that most laptops have a hidden
partition installed by the manufacturer with a C: drive partition image on
it.
The OP needs to have run the "Acer eRecovery Management " software that came
in his original windows installation to have a backup drive image CD or DVD
of his C: Drive.
See here:
http://en.kioskea.net/faq/sujet-2040...alt-f10-or-f10
if he has not done this.

Not all of them. And you may be right to assume that was the case with
this one but there was no evidence to the fact in the original post so...

If you had read a few more posts before leaping to the attack you would
have discovered that the OP doesn't have the disks.......

That is why is said "MOST LAPTOPS" have... and the "evidence" should be in
your head
if you are replying in an effort to provide a knowledgeable and helpful
answer.

If you had bothered to read the link I gave the OP, it provides the ALT +
F10 option to start recovery WITHOUT the CD's.

Indeed. Most but not all. Not safe to assume that this mysterious hidden
partition *is* the restore partition.

You keep on assuming and guessing old son, a lot of the time you'll get
it right, sometimes you'll fall flat on your face. I'll gather the facts
first.

On the contrary, if you knew anything about modern branded notebooks you
would not be talking so much horse **** about mysterious hidden partitions
and such. I did not assume anything, I knew something you showed your
ignorance of and you started leading the OP into a pointless Q&A session.
