    I am assuming here that you have the recovery partition intact,and have not deleted it. Now that being the case, you have to run the eRecovery tool to burn the DVD yourself. Acer will not give you any DVDs by default - all the information is in the system,and eRecovery will make the DVD for you. Once it's been made, you can use it to reset the notebook to the factory settings.
