Acer Laptop Recovery Without CD Dave | August 28, 2010 You can perform an Acer laptop recovery without CD or DVD disks if you need to. Some models of Acer laptops and computers will allow you to run a system recovery from the recovery partition without having to use the CDs. This may be necessary if you never received the recovery CDs or never got around to making a copy of the recovery CDs for your Acer. You will need to make sure certain settings are correct in the BIOS before proceeding. Once you make sure the following are enabled, you can begin rebuilding your C: drive so your system is reverted to factory defaults. Of course, make sure you always backup your important data prior to running an Acer laptop recovery without CD disks, as all data and programs installed after you purchased your Acer will be lost.
Acer Laptop Recovery Without CD – Enable Acer Recovery In BIOS
As you begin to boot your Acer, tap the F2 key until you get into the BIOS setup. Next, Check to make sure the the Acer Disk-to-Disk recovery is enabled. Once you have made sure the Disk-to-Disk recovery is enabled in Main, save the changes and exxit the BIOS setup. The system will reboot.

built in. I could not, and still cant make any e-recovery disks as it stalls after burning but before ing the 1st of 3 disks so i have no way of burning the other 2 or ing if the 1st is complete. My CD-Key sticker, is pretty much worn out and is not readable. I want to do a clean install. 1.) I can order the CD’s from Acer, but im overseas, so it could take a while to reach. I think it can be done without the CDs but will it ask for the CD-Key? 2.) How can i get the CD-Key? Iv tried to get it using keyfinder software, but the key i get does not match the few characters i can read on the sticker – so will it work? Thanks SQ
Dave says: April 15, 2012 at 9:24 am In my experience the recovery partition will not ask for a key. But I would write down the one that the keyfinder displays just to be safe. Did you use Magical Jellybean keyfinder http://www.magicaljellybean.com/keyfinder/?
Texas Outlaw says: September 22, 2013 at 7:26 am Dave, at the last of these directions it says the is six zeros. Check it out. Developed by Acer’s software team, Acer eRecovery Management is a tool that provides you with an easy, reliable and safe means of restoring your computer to its factory default state from an image stored in a hidden partition on the computer’s hard disk drive. Acer eRecovery Management also provides you with an easy-to-use facility to back up your system and data as an image stored on the hard disk drive, or to optical disks. Using Acer eRecovery Management You can launch Acer eRecovery Management in a number of ways: • By pressing the hotkey + during the boot-up process, or at any time when you are running Microsoft® Windows®. • By pressing the recessed hardware reset button (if available). • From the Start menu, go to Start > (All) Programs > Empowering Technology > Acer eRecovery Management. • By clicking on the Empowering Technology icon from your desktop, or pressing the key to launch the Empowering Technology interface. Select the Acer eRecovery Management icon. This will open the Acer eRecovery Management main page. Using the interface Acer eRecovery Management uses an intuitive interface to guide you through the various backup and recovery processes. This UI is detailed below. Acer eRecovery Management requires a to activate. The default is six zeros (0s).

April 16, 2012 at 4:56 am I have an Acer Aspire 5749 my problem started with a clicking noise then it froze so tried removing the battery then when started again it just went black with a command saying check cable connection! PXE-MOF : Exiting Intel PXE ROM. No bootable device–insert boot disk press any key. Then i put the recovery disk 1 chose Restore Operating System to Factory Defaults but it would not copy files from disk and says There is insufficient space on the disk for the temporary files required for this operation. That’s how far as i went. Please help me. Just bought this laptop only Jan. So it’s relatively new. SOS! Thanks.
Dave says: April 16, 2012 at 6:45 am The clicking sound could indicate a bad hard drive. Since this should still be under warranty, I would Acer for a repair.

donna says: April 17, 2012 at 1:00 pm sorry it says set up is restarting,but then screen goes black wi curser still there,i have left it all day and still same,plz send mi sum suggestions thank you ,
Dave says: April 17, 2012 at 1:39 pm Were you installing the Operating System? Did you change or install anything prior to this behavior? Try tapping F8 when booting and see if you can get into Safe Mode and undo whatever is going on. You may want to our free forums for additional help, as that is a better venue.
donna says: April 17, 2012 at 1:49 pm i was installing windows xp,but it kept stoppin sayin there was a error,and now,window xp logo comes on then it saying set up reinstallin,then screen goez black,and tryed safe mode,it says safe mode in all cornerz of screen,at the top says microsoft(r)window xp(r)(build 2600.xpsp_sp3_qfe.080423-1303:service pack3 )

Dave says: April 17, 2012 at 2:40 pm Make sure you are using a genuine, original XP install disk and that there are no scratches on it. I would attempt the install again. This time, make sure all external devices, such as printers, scanners, cameras, etc are not connected, as this can sometimes cause driver issues during install.
Whitney says: April 28, 2012 at 2:41 pm Hey Dave I have a problem with my acer when I turn on my computer it show the Acer logo and then it say starting windows and after that a black screen comes up and it have launch windows to fix problem or start windows normanly and I have tried both when I had pressed start normanly it wont load up and when I pressed launched windows to fix problem it start looking for problem and then a box comes up to set the computer back to a earlier time where it was working correctly before. What should I do from there?
Dave says: April 28, 2012 at 3:03 pm Whitney, it’s asking if you want to do a system restore, which is safe. Select that and then go back to a date when it was working good. Hopefully that will fix your issue.
Whitney says: April 29, 2012 at 4:43 am Hey Dave I did that and it still doing the samething so wat I do now

October 8, 2012 at 1:28 pm If does not start recovery and no recovery disks are available, what else can be done? Desparately, I did attach already ithe HD to another computer and formatted both C and D (a part of 100 Mb I could not address, is this the recovery part?) and thereafter I reinstalled the HD in my Aspire 7530, but still it did not react on . I did put a Windows cd in it. After saying for some minutes “Windows is installing” (or: “Windows is beng installed”, sorry, forgot), the screen turns dark and nothing can be seem anymore. What else can I do? Attaching the HD again to the other computer and installing Windows from there? Or does this mass up Windows’ registry on the other computer? THANK you so much for your help!

Vanessa says: November 13, 2012 at 10:58 pm Hi I have an aspire one 532h and as I was doing the restore it did everything until it got to 99% and its just stuck there now. I don’t know if I should turn it off and try again or if that will just mess it up even more?!? Please Help!! It was at the black screen day in & day out with the curser visible, that’s what made me look up to restore it back….
Dave says: November 13, 2012 at 11:05 pm You can run it again. This time I would unplug any external devices such as a printer, scanner, camera, etc–anything that was not part of the original configuration.

Krispii Duck says: January 15, 2013 at 5:06 pm Hi, I wonder if you can help at all. I’m looking at my daughter-in-law’s netbook. The hard drive failed but I managed to image most of it before it gave up completely. I bought a new hard disk, used gparted to make two partitions on it and copied the contents of the recovery partition back into the first partition, made it bootable and now Acer eRecovery Management starts and loads the first screen, but the first two options are greyed out and the only one that works is EXIT…. and then it does the same over and over again. I feel so close… but yet so far! I would much rather restore from the recovery partition than install XP from scratch if possible. Acer Aspire One AOD260. Any suggestions very gratefully accepted !!

Dave says: February 10, 2013 at 5:12 pm Do you not have the disk or a recovery partition on that computer? I would look up the manual on the Acer website and see what specific instructions they have for your machine. There might be a recovery partition that you can run that will wipe and reinstall Windows.

Andre says: February 24, 2013 at 7:35 pm This is exactly what the system said: inserted the System recovery Disc first as per directions and restarted. It ran fine and the Windows screen popped up and soon after the eRecovery screen popped up. I followed the instructions and selected “Completely Restore System to Factory Defaults” since the only other option required retaining data which there was none. Upon selecting my choice it takes me to a ‘Restore Destination’ screen and I think this is where the problem is… Hard Drive Name: Hitachi HTS545025B9A300 ATA Device Partition Label: Partiition Size 0.1GB. ^^^That is exactly what it says and no I did NOT make any typos. So I click “OK” and it tells me via popup “This action will erase all existing data on Partition Label: .” I click “OK” to that and it tells me to put in the Restore Disc and I do. It

Dave says: February 25, 2013 at 7:29 am Sounds like you need to delete some files from the hard drive prior to running the restore disks.

angel says: June 26, 2013 at 11:45 pm Hi dave, I have an acer aspire 5520 I decided to do a factory restore from alt f10. I do not have any cd’s. During the restore my computer died due to not realizing tgat my son had unplugged my laptop. I powered it back on and the ACER logo appears for a couple of seconds then goes to a black screen with a blinking white cursor. I have tried alt f10 and it just makes a really loud bleeping sound. I have went to f2 and made sure d2d recovery was enabled as well. Any help would be VERY appreciated. Thanks

John says: July 24, 2013 at 11:48 pm My wife has a ACER laptop and we did a system recovery with no cd? We went into alt+f10 and followed onscreen instruction and came up window could not start windows instalation? how can we fix computer?
Dave says: July 25, 2013 at 6:26 am Try it again. If it doesn’t work, you may either have a problem with the recovery partition or the hard drive itself. In our forums, we have techs that can help you diagnose your issues. That is the best place to troubleshoot.

If a USB keyboard works in the laptop, you will likely need to replace the laptop keyboard.

Riley says: July 31, 2013 at 1:06 am Thanks Dave for your help my computer screen is also broken do you have any tips?
Dave says: July 31, 2013 at 6:46 am If the screen is physically cracked, you will need to have it replaced. You can buy a replacement LCD and install it yourself.

sinead says: August 17, 2013 at 6:20 am My acer was completely broken, just went to the “just wait a moment” message and stopped there no matter what I tried. Has been like this since march… Decided to try looking and seeing if there was anything online I hadn’t seen before, and found this, thought what the hell and it worked… This was gonna be my.l last attempt before sending it away for repair and having to pay for it…. Thankyou for saving me money and if anyone who is in this situation and, like me, knows almost nothing about computers, you should give this a try, its easier than I thought it would be!! Thanks again!

Walter Lane says: August 31, 2013 at 9:38 pm Hi I have an aspire 6530 and when I hit alt f10 it comes up with a edit boot option screen this seems to be wrong and it has me so lost help please.
Dave says: September 3, 2013 at 7:33 pm Walter, if you can still boot into Windows, see if it has an Acer Empowering Technology listing in the Start>All Programs menu. If so, you should be able to initiate the Acer recovery from there. Or refer to this video. http://www.youtube.com /watch?v=H2xoMEPfiPQ

Alexis says: September 8, 2013 at 9:46 pm I have an Acer Aspire 5733. The mousepad on the laptop froze last night. so I restarted the laptop. It never left tho start screen so I went ahead and tried to do the factory restore with it backing up the data on a section of the c drive. It gets all the way to the restart where it says setup is starting services. Then says windows cannot load and then restarts. It does this over and over. I was trying to run it with the backup to avoid losing some important stuff that I hadn’t gotten around to saving. Will I have to just do a complete factory restore and lose all of the files for the restore to work?
