    Ok, so i installed Vista on my Acer 5101WLMi, but it wasnt as it was i expected to be.
    but with choosing partitions i accidently removed all partitions including the important one from Acer itself.

    Anyway, i wanted to Install WindowsMCE again using the recovery cd but it wont start installing, prolly because he cant find that partition.

    Is there anyway to fix this?

    Do you have any partitions created? Or it's all unallocated space now? Also the CD you're using.. what is it? A recovery CD you burnt yourself before you deleted the partitions or..?

    yes, there is still a partition, Vista i guess.
    I burned the cd myself because it asked to do so when i bought it and started it up.
    And yes, i burned it before i deleted it.
