    I bought the recovery disk from acer that included 1 system disk 2 recovery disk one has 1 of 1 on it the 2 of 2 on it . Instructions say put system disk in and reboot and press f12 at acer page. I had hard time getting it to start but when it does a page comes up to pick language after this a page comes on with white bar saying windows loading files after this the disk ejects and a box says install backup disk2 or recovery disk.i put in no.1recov. disk in and it starts for a couple minutes then it ejects with same box as before I load 2 recov disk in and it does same thing keeps ejecting an box saying put in backup 2 disk or recovery disk. It keep repeating this over and over and the only way to get off this page is to hold power button down. Contacted acer but little help out of warranty. Thanks for any help with this ,Steve
