Hello, Netbook - Acer Netbook 751H-528K

Got the windows screwed up so did the Alt F10 thing and get "missing operating system". I tried this several times so tried to restore using a genuine XP boot disk. Install went fine but get the "missing operating system" message again. I have since tried Vista, Easy Peasy and Suse 11.2 - still the same msg. I even tried the Alt F10 thing again. Still the same. Acer want nearly $150 to "reimage the disk" does anyone know how to get this Netbook working again?

Sam1010 is right, I couldn't get Alt+F10 to work for me, but once I hit Alt+F10 right at the Acer Splash screen, it worked. Thanks Sam!

Hello,

Acer Aspire One, Series: ZG5

When I press alt+f10 I get the Acer eRecovery Management pop-up...
I have 2 options:
1)restore system to factory default
2)reinstall applications/drivers

I only want to restore to factory default. Now if I choose this option will I need to hook up an external CD/DVD Drive and then run the recovery CD?
Or
Can I just Restore system to factory default with out having a Disc?
