The label on the bottom of the laptop should give you more detailed information about the model number.... when you say you can't log on.... what exactly are you referring to ?

SOURCE: Acer Aspire 5315 No Recovery Disk - Restart

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.

Factory reset my lenovo y510 when forgotwindows password

If its running Windows 8 the login might be linked to a microsoft account. from another computer login or reset your password to that account and try logging back into the laptop (as long as it has an active internet connection) If its windows 7 or older you might need to find a Live repair disk (ERD or Hiron's boot cd or something along those lines that has a password recovery tool incorperated)

Worst case you would need the windows installation disk or restore disks that came with the laptop

How do i factory reset my gateway laptop so the person im selling it to will not get any of my personal information?

Common is the same on most laptops either F10 ALT+F10 F8 Or could be F12
I give the selection since even though say for example only a Win XP F10 may work but on a Win 8 its F8. You would need to try each til one gets you to the factory reset screen. Repeatedly hit the F key before the Windows logo appears. Try holding the ALT key if just the F is not working. Sometimes it takes a few tried before it decides to work.
Once you get things reset I would log on and run disk cleanup that's included in Windows How do remove the Windows old folder This specifies Windows 7 but is the same for all since XP and even 8. this will remove all traces of any left overs that factory reset may have skipped which I found does happen.
After this it will be as if new.

Cant restore factory settings Acer Aspire One A110-Ab 8.9" 1.6 GH

Unlike other laptops, Acer laptops integrate a computer management utility called 'Acer eRecovery Management' to create backup of hard drive data, create restore point, reinstall applications & drivers, and reset Acer laptop to factory setting.

Step 1: Before starting your Acer laptop, ensure that there is no external storage device attached to it. Now start your laptop.

Step 2: Press 'Alt + F10' when the laptop starts booting, and wait for a moment while Windows loads the reset files.

Step 3: When 'Acer eRecovery Management' window appears, select 'Restore System from factory default' and click 'Next' to continue.

Step 4: Again click 'Next' to reset your Acer laptop. This process will erase all data from your hard disk and reset your Acer laptop to original factory settings.

Step 5: Click 'OK' in the notification window to begin the the resetting operation. Now wait while your Acer laptop is reset to factory settings.

Tips: You can also create a backup copy of your laptop data before factory reset. Simply click 'Backup' in 'Acer eRecovery Management' window.
