I've got and Acer desktop with a bad HD. It's totally unreadable so everything on it is gone.
I have the following Acer Disks -
1. Acer System Disk Formatter.
2. Recovery DVD 1
3. Recovery DVD 2
After installing a new HD, I run the disk formatter and it tells me the disk was sucessfully formatted and to insert the Recovery DVD 1 before rebooting the system. This I do. I'm then prompted for the language. I select English. It then promptly spits out the disk and tells me to insert backup disk one or the System CD. I have no clue what either of these is. What do I need to do to get Win XP back on this POS.
TIA
