Yes you can use the recovery partition which should be built into the hard drive. press f2 on the bios screen and follow the on board instructions. this will return the laptop to its original factory state. Keep in mind that this is a destructive reinstall of windows and you will lose all data and programs.

make sure you do a recovery and NOT a system restore to earlier date.

hope this helps.

Hello, i am trying to reset my computer to its original factory settings. I do not have the restore disk.. I have a Acer Aspire 5315.

Hi.

If you never tampered with your partitions you should still have a recovery partition hidden in your hard drive.

Restart your computer and press ALT F10 many times until you get the Acer recovery page. Follow the steps and it should be easy to get back to the factory defaults.

Hope it helps!
