How do I reset my Acer laptop to when it was still in the box?
I want to return my Acer laptop, but I first need to reset it so that it was like it has never been used before. I do not have any disks and I cannot format the hard drive. Does anyone know how? Thanks!

Well in windows u can go back in time using system restore points well this "resets" the OS to its original state. to do follow the instructions. Go to the start All programs Accessories System utilities in here you will find "System Restore" Select the best restore point. And u are done.!!!!!

You need to run your "System Restore". If your computer did not come with a set of Restore disks, then the Restore data is probably on a partition on your hard drive that is usually called "D". You may need to burn this partition to disk before you can use it. If you don't have either the disk set or the partition you will need to purchase an XP installation CD and install it, but you won't have any of your computers drivers, so there may be a few things that won't work.

When you first buy the laptop you can burn a recovery disk. Perhaps it's not too late for you to do so. The instructions should be in the manual. Usually there are two blank disks included when you first open the box. That is what the disks are for. If you haven't had it for very long, then you should be able to burn the disks. Then all you do is reinstall the system with your burnt disk(s) and its back to it's original format.

On an Acer laptop the trick is to hold down the alt key and repeatedly press f10 while booting, which will bring up the utility to reimage your disk to the factory default. You can often also do this with an Acer utility named Erecovery from windows.
