Bad recovery media then? I generally find a similar machine and create a new media. Probably be hard for your home setup.

Hahaha....(not really)
Recovery partition is missing (some how)
The USB recover drive I created - not validso to go back to 8.1 I have to order the media at $45 plus tax (and I'm sure shipping).
Nice.

I have an acer laptop purchased just before Christmas last year. It was running 8.1 I still have the recovery media for it on a USB drive. want me to image it for you?

If you have the time, that would be great.

This is the model I have.

Using imageUSB to create the image file.
Looks like 15gb. I'll drop you a line when it is transferable.

Cool thanks
I have the R14 which was only available via BestBuy...
But it should still work.

This was bought at best buy also, but assuming that Acer is like most companies, the recovery will be similar. Hopefully similar enough.

I would think it should be close enough - like you said,.. assuming it is like most companies.
I do have another fall back option.. just a matter of coordinations.. Former co-worker has the same laptop (it's his fault I bough this thing).. so push comes to the last line,..I might be able to get it from him.....
Maybe.
