Acer eRecovery Management
Acer eRecovery Management is a powerful utility that does away with the need
for recovery disks provided by the manufacturer. The Acer eRecovery
Management utility occupies space in a hidden partition on your system's HDD.
User-created backups are stored on D:\ drive. Acer eRecovery Management
provides you with:
• Password protection.
• Recovery of applications and drivers.
• Image/data backup:
• Back up to HDD (set recovery point).
• Back up to CD/DVD.
• Image/data recovery tools:
• Recover from a hidden partition (factory defaults).
• Recover from the HDD (most recent user-defined recovery point).
• Recover from CD/DVD.
For more information, please refer to "Acer eRecovery Management" on page
58 in the AcerSystem User's Guide.
Note: If your computer did not come with a Recovery CD or
System CD, please use Acer eRecovery Management's "System
backup to optical disk" feature to burn a backup image to CD or
DVD. To ensure the best results when recovering your system
using a CD or Acer eRecovery Management, detach all peripherals
(except the external Acer ODD, if your computer has one),
including your Acer ezDock.
