Reinstall OS on Acer Aspire 5738z Win 7 or reset to factory settings?
Hi
I have a Acer Aspire 5738z and I have tried in vain with the help of some good people here to get rid of the infection that has plagued my laptop, but it looks like it has won

So I feel I only have 2 options left?
Opt 1
I currently have this version ISO X 15-53758, but it is not listed as a ISO download, >> Windows 7 Direct Download Links << so can I use another similar ISO for Win 7 Home Premium? I have the 25 digit key, but this Acer did not come with a CD to reinstall?
Opt 2
I have found this from Acer, so could I simply reset my laptop to factory settings? If it works?

A related Q is if I do proceed with this above I will lose all info on HDD? So can I set up a partition / drive so the new OS is seperate with the above process, where as now it is all on one partition?
Are there any known issues with this process or should find a ISO to reinstall with??
Thanks in advance..
