| | Yeah but I don't know how it got botched. How do I run factory recovery? When I turn it on it goes straight to "BOOTMGR is missing." |

| | Try to install from the recovery partition like this: Restart your PC and press ALT+F10 when you get the first splash screen - or check on that screen whether they want you to press something else. That gets you to the installation wizard that will guide you. |

| | You run it the same way you ran it when it go botched. In your 1st post you said you ran factory recovery, didn`t you ? As WHS says, you look for the appropriate key to start the recovery process during 1st boot. It will tell you at the bottom of the screen. Last edited by AddRAM; 05 Jan 2013 at 11:50 PM.. |

That gets you to the installation wizard that will guide you. The BIOS POST runs its course before the ALT F10 interrupt occurs. Last edited by mjf; 06 Jan 2013 at 12:00 AM.. Reason: Clarify |

| | Ok! ALT+F10 was the key. The Acer splash screen doesn't list it, it just says press F2 to enter Setup. I got it to return to factory settings this time. The way I ran factory recovery when it got botched was through control panel. Thanks everyone! I thought all was lost. |
