Pre installed ubuntu linux software

It appears to be possible, but only for Vista, here is the link to the Acer driver page for this model.
you could try XP, but chances are that some or all of the drivers would not work.
the manufacturers of the individual components in your Acer may have drivers for XP, that would require some extensive searching to find them.
the actual installation of XP is a simple matter of inserting your XP disk, re-booting your computer and follow the screens till you get to the screen that allows you to re-format your hard drive; that will remove Ubuntu, then proceed with the installation.
I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS UNLESS YOU ARE SURE YOU HAVE THE NECESSARY DRIVERS!!! If you wish a search for the drivers, please write back.

My acer aspire 4315 lcd is faulty...i ca

kezler_0007, I have found in the 8 years of being online, and providing answers/solutions to people's computer problems; that coming across, and trying to explain the answer/solution, is the hardest thing to do.It appears I have failed youLet's try again;1) Perusing the internet, I look at what LCD screens are offered, (Aspire 4315 series of Notebook PC's), and see what backlighting is offered. I have seen LCD screen examples offered, that seem to be CCFL backlighting.I DO have to know however, WHAT style of backlighting is used for YOUR laptop.Do Not want to make a mistake here, because the mistake could cost you five times as much.You buy a not needed LCD screen, about $100, and only needed a screen Inverter; about $18.!O_O!?IF, your laptop states LED backlighting, THEN the only option is to buy the entire LCD screen. With LED backlighting, the LED backlighting is incorporated into the LCD screen assembly.There is no simply replace the LED backlighting.With a laptop that uses CCFL for backlighting, the first thing to do is replace the screen Inverter.90 PERCENT OF THE TIME the fault is a bad screen Inverter.Allow me to state the primer over again, now that I have more room;An LCD screen does Not produce light,http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/NA_Optical/Systems/BehindTheScenes/Optics101/(Click on the monitor icon)Therefore an LCD screen needs an additional light source.A Backlight is the additional light source.A Backlight can be a CCFL, (Or two of them), Or a series of LED's.(Light Emitting Diode)When I state series, I mean a LOT of LED's. They are incorporated into the LCD screen assembly.(You see from the above link that an LCD screen is an assembly)A CCFL is a Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp. (Bulb)Similar to Fluorescent lighting used in homes, and businesses, but on a MUCH smaller scale.Average thickness is 2mm. That is a little larger than 1/16th of an Inch.Average length is almost as long, as the LCD screen is in height,http://www.laptoprepair101.com/laptop/2007/12/09/replace-laptop-backlight-ccfl-lamp/View the last 8 photos to see what an average CCFL looks like.Know this also; A CCFL is a Fluorescent bulb.This means it has MERCURY in it.VERY dangerous if the bulb breaks!Mercury is POISON to the human body.IF, it is determined that the laptop uses CCFL/s for a Backlight, -> AND the CCFL/s are bad, I implore you to have a pro change it/them.The other option would be to replace the LCD screen.The CCFL is incorporated into the LCD screen assembly.HOWEVER, I still go with the screen Inverter is bad.(IF, the laptop uses CCFL for a Backlight)1) http://www.screenaid.com/acer-aspire-43152004-laptop-lcd-screen-141-wxga-glossy-ccfl-backlight-p-7495.html2) http://battery-adapter.com/product_info.php/products_id/3773/vAspire+4315+Series3) http://www.tim.id.au/blog/tims-laptop-service-manuals/#toc-acerGo to the 'paragraph' that starts with Aspire 1200. (1200 in Blue)Drop down to the 4th line, (3810T in blue), scroll across, and click on - 4315This is a free Service Manual.It is in PDF file form.The computer you are using now has Adobe Reader on it, which uses PDF files.After you click on the file name (4315) it may take up to 30 seconds, before the first page comes up.(The file is downloading in the background)[May be on my end, but it took 44 seconds just now, and using a medium speed DSL connection. Usually takes 10 to 12 seconds. Just letting you know so you do not think the link doesn't work ]LCD Module Disassembly Process - Page 86Hmmm, also states Inverter Board. (screen Inverter)Removing the LCD Module is on Page 71.4) NOT an Acer Aspire 4315 series of Notebook PC; Aspire 3810T. Posted so you would be able to get a more 'Hands on' idea, of working on your laptop,http://www.insidemylaptop.com/replace-broken-screen-acer-aspire-3810t-laptop/Test the screen Inverter before replacing?IF you have a sensitive multimeter, you can. Otherwise IMHO the choice is to just replace the screen Inverter.Parts changing I know, and I abhor it; but if it is your only choice?http://www.fonerbooks.com/test.htmWhere in the Philippines to order from? Do not know.Suggest using the internet.For additional questions please post in a Comment.Regards,joecoolvette

I need to reset my aspire 4315 series back to factory settings.

First plug in the Notebook to a power socket with your adapter. Power on the Notebook and you will see the Acer splash screen. Immediately prell ALT and keep tapping F10 at the same time. It will take you to a screen where you will see "windows is loading files" or "starting acer recovery" it will ask you, how do you want to restore?" choose the option "restore to factory default" and click continue. It will go through the restore process and within 15 - 20 minutes it should finish the process. Your Notebook will be back to factory default settings and once again you can see the OOBE.

Hope you find this solution helpful.

We appreciate your comments and feedbacks, Please do not forget to leave your comments and ratings.

Thank you for choosing Fixya.
