To Re-install bundled software without CD

Acer eRecovery Management stores pre-loaded software internally for easy

driver and application re-installation.

1 Boot to Windows XP.

2 Press <Alt> + <F10> to open the Acer eRecovery Management utility.

3 Enter the password to proceed. The default password is six zeros.

4 In the Acer eRecovery Management window, select Recovery actions and

click Next.

5 In the Recovery settings window, select Reinstall applications/drivers and

click Next.

6 Select the desired driver/application and follow the instructions on screen
