Unfortauntly it is not just Acer. As a IT tech I have just this alone year replaced around 70 to 80 systemboards and countless number of graphic cards, HD, DVD-roms, memory, KB, touchpads, LCD screens, cpu fans and case covers in HP, Lenovo and Dell laptops. I have done so many of them that I can replace the system board of a HP 8540w laptop in 30 minutes or on a Lenovo T400 and T410. You have to remeber that most Laptop brands get their stuff from the same place, they just slap their name on it and put it in to a fancy case.

Which is some sweat shop in China no doubt

If you need to backup your files, setup IDE and download PartedMagic and burn to a CD from another computer. You can boot up that program and backup to an external drive if you have one handy.

I think I will try this. Windows XP runs incredibly slow on my computer, and the C drive where Windows 7 is installed and all my other files is unreadable, therefore I would lose all my files. Guess I can give this a shot.

Thanks to everyone who helped.

Were you able to get your files backed up and your drive functioning to use Windows 7 again? Let us know if you need further help. :)
