    Is that within Windows or the recovery partition? Have you tried reinstalling that application?

    when the system starts up, just after the bios load, press ALT + F10, this function should let you restore the machine.

    Try restarting? Sometimes the installer locks up. Happens alot on Acer/Gateway/eMachines.

    I'm guessing that you're messing up other stuff (like changing the wallpaper before your computer is even done setting up for gods sake)...

    Why not wait? On top of that if you edited, or changed your recov partition the install will probably fail as well...

    Has it installed windows least, if so, you could try and stop what it is installing and manually install the drivers?
