If you want to boot a computer from the usb you will have to go into the bios and set the boot media ( HD, CD, USB) so that the computer knows where to search for the os.

How can i factory set my acer extensa 5220

Hi,
To restore your laptop you need the restore cd/dvd that came with your laptop when you bought it.
Please be adviced that restoring your laptop will cause you to lose all your data. Backup any data you would like to keep, to an externad drive or usb.

To restore your laptop do the following:
Insert the restore cd in your cd/dvd drive and restart your computer.
When you see the message "Press any key to boot from cd" press enter.
Then follow the on screen instructions to restore your laptop.

Regards,
nicolasiac
