    Hi

    I received my brand new AS 1810 TZ Olympic edition :)
    With the notebook I also purchased an upgrade from Home Premium to professional

    Since I read that the Acer comes with all kinds of crapware I was planning to do a fresh install.

    Question:
    - Should I first run a normal install and upgrade to Win 7 Pro and then do the fresh install?
    - Is it possible to make an ISO file from a Win7 version running on the AS1810TZ ? I have not received any disc

    No.....do a fresh install of Win 7 Prof and select full installation...not upgrade.

    Yes, you should be able to print off recovery disks..thus maling an iso on the recovery disks

    Don't forget to download and install your drivers afterword....or get them off your created utilities disk..
