#Acer empowering technology framework 3.0 for windows 7 license key
I just checked on the Microsoft site and I can do a custom install (basically a clean install) and use the license key that comes with the upgrade. When I mentioned upgrading they told me I would have to stay with Home Premium or buy Ultimate. I don't think Acer wants me to resolve this problem. I don't think I'm going to be able to get into the Acer recovery mode. Why are those numbers on the side of the case if I have to register this thing with the OEM registration? Did Acer already use those numbers to register it to Acer? On the side of the case is a sticker with numbers on it. I don't even want to think about putting in a new motherboard. With my technical expertise I will be lucky if I get the new hard drive changed. My Windows System Restore was one of the first casualty of missing files, now that doesn't work, AutoPlay was the second casualty. I just bought a new power supply to run the new graphics card too. I could gut this and put my processor and graphics card in that. Right now I'm wishing I had spent the money I spent on the parts for this and just bought one of those $400 machines. I can either buy the home premium version or the ultimate version.

Today I learned that even if I get the thing straightened out I can't buy the 7 Pro version if I'm "upgrading" from Vista home premium. I installed it, and the - thing still won't go into recovery mode!! Guess that cuts too far into the ole profit margin.Īfter giving them a piece of my mind they finally sent me this download, they said my "Framework" was corrupt.

You would think that when they sell a $900 PC they could afford to throw in a stupid recovery CD. They aren't much good if that stupid OEM key over rides it. Those I have, all the way up to and including SP2. I was told that since this is an OEM version that key won't work? Some crap about the motherboard won't recognize it if I were to use just regular Vista Home Premium CD's. I have a sticker on the side of the machine with what looks like the MS license key. I've hit every F key on here and nothing will take me into recovery mode. If I count right that would be 3, assuming all versions used the same method of eRecovery. It came with Vista Home Premium on it, there have only added 2 service packs before Window 7 was released. I don't have an Acer eRecovery CD to use. Yes, the old hard drive does have a recovery partition, I just can't get into the darn thing. I sure as hell won't put Vista back in if I have to buy a new licensed copy of something.
Without the OEM license the only other option I have is to spend $300 for the retail version.

I can't even do an upgrade to windows 7 because I have to have the OEM license to back it up with. In plain English, give us some money and go to hell. "You are out of warranty, for a fee we will be happy to help you although we can't guarantee results". On the backup is a file called Acer Inc., inside it is another folder marked eRecovery, inside that is a application file called D2D? Is that what opens the eRecovery environment? I contacted Acer, their response was. Sure enough some of the Acer files are missing. I checked it against what is on the computer. I did find a backup of all of my Acer files that I made last year, the original is 2007. eRecovery is there, it just doesn't work when I try booting to alt F10. I then went into computer files and checked the Acer files. I've hit alt F10 until I'm blue in the face. I tried the next best thing, I was going to restore to factory settings and create a new copy, can't do the either because the eRecovery doesn't work. They said it has to be done using the original OEM edition of Vista. Acer tells me this isn't possible that the motherbd won't recognize it. I thought I could use the Repair CD's I got from Microsoft to reinstall, then just re-register it with the OEM license. The long and short of it is I bought a new hard drive, mine is on the verge of failure.
