I've got an Acer laptop that needs to be reformatted. There's no recovery CDs available - they have a partition that's supposed to have the system backed up, but reports that I have the wrong hard drive installed. Acer warranty claims that this is not their fault because it was not reported before the warranty expired. I can't install from a generic XP CD because it claims the CDKey is invalid.
At this point is there anything I can do with this system?
