How to get Acer laptop to boot from CD?
I am trying to do a clean install on an Acer Aspire 5536 by booting from CD.
I already have Windows 7 Home installed. I am hoping to install Windows 7 Ultimate (which is what I have on CD).
I have the CD in the drive. I restart my computer and press delete 2 or 3 times before windows start-up and access "Windows Boot Manager". It allows me to choose what operating system I want to boot, only giving me the option of Windows 7 (the one I already have installed). This screen also allows me to access "Windows Memory Diagnostic.
How can I access the BIOS to boot from cd?
I have tried everything suggested online, but it leads me to the same screen.
