A slightly different model requires pressing Alt+F10 at the start up and following the prompts. This will wipe the hard drive though, so back up everything important first. You can probably still get the data even if it doesn't boot Windows.
First Method: 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.

Second Method: Turn on the computer, then insert the Recovery CD-Rom that came with
your PC into your PC's CD or DVD-ROM drive. If your computer has a
recovery partition instead, press the key given on your screen during
bootup (Typically the "Del" key.)
Choose the option to restore your PC to factory defaults. This may be an option named "System recovery" or "Restore to default".
Confirm at the next screen that you want to recover your Acer system.
