    I need help rebooting from partition drive. I want to reboot back to factory install. I don't care if I lose existing data. No I do not have recovery discs. ACER IS TO CHEAP TO INCLUDE WITH NEW LAPTOPS>

    Have you tried pressing Alt+F10 on start-up? This should start the recovery process if your D2D partition is intact of course.

    If the partition isn't intact and you don't have the original ACER MBR, pressing Alt+F10 will do nothing(I suppose).
