Uninstalling And Reinstalling The Drive: Accer Aspire
Mar 23, 2008
I have an Acer Aspire 5610 running vista, which was upgraded from XP. No problems were encountered during installation. I was able to play cd's and dvd's, until a week ago. Since then I insert a disc and nothing happens, I click on Media Player 11 and it prompts me to place a disc in drive E: When I click on "My Computer" the drive is there but a red circle with a diagonal red line through it appears on top. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drive etc. Still no joy.

The Office 2007 icon on my start menu inexplicably became nonfunctional this week. I'm running Vista Home Premium x32. I tried uninstalling Office 2007, but I get the message: "Setup could not find any available products to install. Please contact your system administrator." If I try to reinstall using the original disc, I get the message: "Setup has stopped working." I've tried to follow the instructions at 'How to uninstall the 2007 Office system if you cannot uninstall it by using the "Add or Remove Programs" feature' (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928218/en-us) for uninstalling without using the add/remove program, but I am unable to go to any "choose details" menu on the view tab ... it doesn't exist, so I can't continue the instructions from there. I don't have a second drive to try installing the disc from there. The disc is brand-new, not dirty or damaged. I've defragged the computer.

I inserted the media direct cd for vista like the web site said to do I could see the recovery directory, the c drive and the media drive. it asked me to put in how much space i wanted for the c: so i put in 137 like it said. so now the recovery drive is gone. I put the reinstall dvd in and it says it is copying windows then extending files and then installing files then it goes to the completing installation and then it takes over 2 hours.
when it restarts it has an arrow on the screen and it stops there. on the web site it says it is to come up with a user name and password page but we never see that part. Any idea's what i need to do? If I put a windows xp cd in it got to the install screen and when I click enter so it will find a previous version and ask to format the computer halts so it doesn’t damage the drive.

Customer locked out of her Acer Aspire 3680.
I hope no one minds me posting this question here but I am at a loss to solve this issue and hope someone here can help. My customer is locked out of her Acer Aspire 3680. She hasn`t used it for a few months and has forgotten the password. I have searched the net for possible solutions and tried everything I came across that appeared to make sense but other than sending the laptop to Acer for them to unlock it at approx ??100 plus postage and VAT
I have no idea.
I have tried and had no luck with the following:
?I have opened up the back to try and find the CMOS battery
?I have disconnected 4 connectors that look like they could lead to a CMOS battery for more than 30mins?
Phoenix backdoor passwords: PHOENIX, CMOS, BIOS and phoenix

My acer notebook is about 9 months and has turned really slow. i think it needs to be seriously cleaned up. I have done scans using Macaffee, windows defender, disk defrag, and clean up. But nothing seems to help the speed. Does anyone know what i could do. on other sites said about using the eRecovery but not 100% on using it.. any help to get my laptop back to its original state would be helpful 64X2 dual core processor with 1 gb ram. 32bit os vista

I was browsing the internet and was going to install this one software, but noticed i clicked on the wrong button and Advance Virus Remover was installed. I looked on the control panal to uninstall it, didn't show up, so i went through and deleted all the files pertaining to the program. now, there is an icon on my tool bar that i can't click on and it blocks some of my stuff, like when i try opening a movie, saying the the "Application cannot be executed. The file is infected. Please activate your antivirus software." i ran a virus scan, got nothing. I even tried a full restore, since i just got this computer monday, and it was still there.

I would like to install Windows Mail Live, but I cannot find where to uninstall Windows Mail. However, I want to download Windows Mail Live, and see if it is possible to import my email contacts. Does Windows Mail Live overwrite Windows Mail, or must it be uninstalled?

From the moment my new Vista Ultimate SP1 machine arrived, Defender hasn't worked. At first, it was crashing. Now it doesn't appear to be running, but MS Update wants to install an update that won't install.
Is there a way to uninstall Defender? I have other products that don't crash now and don't need Defender.

All right, so I've gotten my self in one mighty big mess. I've been Dual-Booting Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit and Linux Ubuntu 9.04 for a while now. And just today I decided I didn't want Ubuntu any more. So I loaded up in to Vista and deleted the Ubuntu partition. I then extended the Vista partition to fill up the new 70 GB of unallocated space. After running a Defrag I restarted my computer, but it still tries to load GRUB 1.5. And every time it end up getting Error 22. I can no longer access Windows and I'm on these forums thanks to a Linux Live-CD. I need a way to get rid of GRUB for good....

I've been using Adobe suit collection CS3 and when I updated it I had a few issues with some of the programs. So I downloaded another Suit and tried to overwrite the old version with this new one. But it didn't install. So then I tried to uninstall The old Adobe suit from control panel but it would not happen. It would simply just bluff a loading mouse and then nothing would happen. Now I can not intall a new one and the old one is completely disfunctional. The message I get when I try to open a program is "The licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically. You must reinstall or call custumer support."

I just installed Vista SP1 and am convinced that my never before seen printing problem is due to SP1 (can no longer print anything on my HP psc 1350v All-In-One printer). There are no driver updates available from HP so it would appear that backing out SP1 (or a buying new printer) are my only options. Can someone supply a link to the process for uninstalling SP1

I want TO "un-RAID" (what's the term please? disable? split? uninstall?) so that I have 2 x 250Gb separate hard drives. (I want to try scheduled backups for a while and see how that goes.) I have tried these solutions:
a) I have looked at the software and can't find a way to disable/split/uninstall. DELETING IS UNACCEPTABLE as that wipes all data. I need to keep OS/programs/data as is.
b) I have gone into BIOS F2. Under System Setup I have tried all three RAID/IDE/AHCI. ONLY RAID works. With IDE and AHCI setting it goes to blue screen for a split second and goes back to reboot.
c) I have physically disconnected one drive. The software tells me it's STILL got RAID 1 with 2 x HDD but with "missing hard drive"

Internet Explorer has taken a turn for the worse. Not sure what caused it, but it loads slow (Firefox doesn't), and every click is slow as well. Is it possible in uninstall, and then reinstall? Would it worth my effort to give that a try. I have been using it for about a year and a half now, and it's been great.
The problem started when I installed Canon scanner software. Not sure what happened, but immediately after IE7 started acting up. It's slow as molasses and often freezes. If anyone has suggestions please, please let me know. It's driving me crazy. I did uninstall the Canon program, but evidently something is still interfering. I have also scanned with Spybot and Norton, and everything comes up fine. I want my old, fast IE7 back!

"The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28) There is no driver selected for the device information set or element. To reinstall the drivers for this device, click Reinstall Driver." I click for it to check for an update and can't. It suggests to go to the manufacture site to get it, I haven't a clue what the heck this is or what it does... I tried uninstalling, rebooting, it tells me it can't find the driver.
