Little netbooks like the Acer Aspire One have a hidden partition from where is possible to restore operating system. Many times in windows menu (from start => All programs) the producers installs a little program that is to recovery the laptop to default factory settings.
Beware before doing this you may want to save all your documents because after this operation you will lose all of them if you don't save them

    How do I find it? Because I'm at a window with "Setup is starting services" and then pops another window with "Windows could not complete the installation.

    You can also try this:
    While rebooting try pressing Alt+F10 keys. If this does not work you should look at the screen and see instructions given (can be press F2 to setup and F(something) to recovery

    It is a notebook but has no cd tray. Is there a way I can reboot the system any other way?

  • Ishai Richetti Aug 22, 2011

    Doing the Alt+F10 key (or what is the combination for your netbook, please reffer to the manual or to what appears on your screen) while booting you should be able to activate the hidden partition for installing operating system and for factory default recover

You always want to start your windows normally.
In my 10 years as a computer technician I have learned that you never use the startup repair option cause it will never help.

I just can't change the background of my Acer Aspire One, and I want to know how.

What OS is installed on the Aspire One? If you have Windows 7 Starter, you will need to upgrade to a higher version of Windows 7. The fixed background is a limit of the Starter edition. If you have XP or a higher version of Windows, you should be able to change the background. In the other versions of WIndows 7, right click on the desktop and choose Personalize.

I wish that I had better news.

To reinstall you need an external DVDROM drive and run directly the windows 7 installer as boot up disk. Because it need to run alone as boot up disk and surely it will not run when you just copy the files to external HDD.

I cannot change the background of my pc..it's aspire one d255 (notebook)..it's got windows 7 starter.. i need help. thank you very much

You can't change the background in W7 Starter because it is not allowed in that version. You will need to upgrade to Home Premium. There are a slew of free third party programs that you can install to enable you to change the background, but it comes at a price; they slow down the computer. If you want to try one, just do a search for "change background in windows 7 starter".
