Acer dvd drive

Try installing Ashampoo Burning Studio (Free). Windows XP does not come with DVD support; you need to add it with a 3rd party application. Here is a link you can follow:

http://download.cnet.com/Ashampoo-Burning-Studio-Free/3000-2646_4-10776287.html

Download.com is a great resource for software-you can filter by OS, free to try, free, or paid, and has some nice reviews to help you.

My serial number has rubbed

Hi,
Since the serial number is not there in the body you still have a chance to get it from the BIOS. It will be in the BIOS (PC Setup or System). You access this as the computer boots using a function key, maybe F1, F2, F12. There may be a message as your computer boots.
Let us know if you were looking for something more else please accept the suggestion.
Thank You for contacting Fixya.com

I have lost the Administrative

Yes you will lose all stored data because you will have to run system restore to factory default with the restore cds that comes with the laptop.

Sorry.

I have lost the Administrative

Hi

If your computer has windows xp then you can possibly reset the password by pressing F8 repeatdly when the machine is starting up until you see advanced start up options and from there select safe mode, in safe mode you may be able to sign in as a administrator or similar with no password.

if it doesn't let you in then you have two choises.

1. Try a password reset software - you will not lose the content on the drive.

-reset software
http://pogostick.net/~pnh/ntpasswd/

or read here - http://www.petri.co.il/forgot_administrator_password.htm



the 2nd option involves reinstalling windows, in that case you would lose isntalled programs but you can recover your important data, see below

2. first back up your files with a linux cd and a external usb hard drive
and then reinstall windows to the computer with a windows installation cd. For acer laptop recovery please see my tip on Acer Recovery

To back up your files you would need a external USB hard drive, and another computer to burn a Linux CD from. download ubuntu http://www.ubuntu.com/ and burn it to a cd, then start up from the disc and back up your files into the external usb drive.

The ubuntu webpage has instructions on how to download and burn the disk.

If the cd won't start then look at my tips and tricks section again theres a tip on how to solve boot cd issues.http://www.fixya.com/MyProfile/tips.aspx?usrid=364913

with the cd in the drive and it starts up, take the option to Try ubuntu without any change to your computer.

In ubuntu, it is quite like a windows system, its as simpe to use as windows is.

In ubuntu, with the external usb drive connected, on the desktop

On the top right you have places, from there you can get into your computers hard drive and then on the usb drive, just copy your files from there to the external just like you would do with a windows computer.

Things that you want to back up

c:\documents and settings\ your user name --- this place contains your personal data in most cases

that is the most important place and that is where most of the files are stored, ofcourse you will know better what and where they are.

Not much specific info given here.
But why not just save the downloaded file to disk and run it from there?

USB ports won't work

Sounds like some of the ports on the motherboard are starting to go bad.

You can try doing a system restore back to a date when they were working all properly.

If not you might want to save the important information off of the hard drive and wipe it out and reinstall the OS and the drivers. If on a fresh install the usb ports are still not working properly then you know the motherboard is faulty.

Acer Aspire 7520 doesn't start up!

There should be a F key option at start up during the bios side of boot up. Look closely and quickly at the screen when starting up. You should see on that says retstore maybe.

if not just press all of the F keys skiping the ones listed for start up options and bios option.
