    I lost them somewhere, and had to do a manual install. Anybody know where I can get them? I looked on acer.com and ebay but I can't find them for the TM3201xci.

    Also does anybody have the service manuals for the TM3200?

    The recovery CD's would not be available on the Acer site. This contains licensed software. The only place to get them is to contact Acer and have them send it to you. You're probably gonna have to buy a new set of these CD's. Most Acer HDD's have a hidden partition which stores a copy of the recovery image. You may want to check to see if it's still there, you should be able to restore the system if you didn't delete this partition.

    Hmmm... I just checked and I still have that 2 gig recovery partition.

    Any ideas on how to use it?
