    You know how it asks you to burn recovery discs, out of the box? How can I burn another set? (Not disc copy the ones I burnt, but burn another set off the machine)? eRecovery only allows me to burn current system image.. I want another set of factory restore discs. Thanks.

    windows sytem recovery, or perhaps it's system restore.
    I think its restore. but one of them alows you to make a backup disk of your system, but you probable have to do this when you first get you laptop. I take it that you don't have a windows installation disk and drivers disk. Otherwise, that would be the easier solution.

    Normally most laptops only allow you to burn only one recovery disc.. I've seen HP Compaq s doing this. Dont really know about Acer, but i guess it wont let you burn more than one recovery disc.

    I don't think, if you use the acer tools, I was told you can use it as many times as you'd like.
