Update: Now I screwed, started the Acer set to factory settings and it couldn't finish. Something was missing. I can't go back to view the error. Oh well, crappy laptop anyway, goes in the trash now.

I have windows 7 running on an acer Aspire 5336-2524 laptop.

I have a Repair Disk and I also have a set of Recovery Disk's 1-4.

I have to start over and reinstall a fresh new OS, Don't need to back.

For the life of me I cannot understand how these Disk's work!

To summarize, I want to delete everything totally off my HD and reinstall factory settings.
