I have an Acer as well. I�m probably going to follow your thread. I can�t get my DVD player to work. Each time I load a dvd it�s too slow so everything is in a screen shots. I need to spend another hour being on hold with Acer.
If you have any basic questions, they�re not that bad I suppose. You may call them on: 01752 243 890 or: 0870 853 1000
Just did as you said, alt F10, followed the instructions and it did it all it's self, have got a fresh feeling laptop that i have loaded my AVG and Zone alarm onto already!
Thanks for all your help :)
Oh by the way when you do do the alt F10 thing it says about installing drivers, will i need to do that?
