i have a acer aspire 4920 and i want to restore it to factory default. i downloaded acer erecovery management and i click on restore system to factory default.A error message pops up saying hard drive configuration is not set to factory default restore aborted. how do i fix it.
i have not got any recovery disks. the recovery partition is still there. D2D is enabled in bios but alt and f10 doesn't work
here it is
You have 3 partitions on your hard drive:
OEM partition: this appears to be empty.
C: for Windows; about 35 GB used of the 50 available.
D: virtually empty;
I don't know what those pictures would have looked like on the day you bought the machine, but it looks to me like you are out of luck since OEM and D both appear to have nothing useful on them.
You might be able to order a set of recovery disks from Acer directly.
I think the poster above is correct. You seem to have two oem partitions. One is visible: can you verify the contents? For the other one you will need to assign a letter to it first before you can view the contents
how much do the recovery disks cost?
All OEM Recovery partitions, will show empty disk management.
