Acer eRecovery Management

Acer eRecovery Management is a tool to quickly backup and restore the system. 
You can create and save a backup of the current system configuration to hard 
disk, CD or DVD.

Acer eRecovery Management consists of the following functions:
1

Create backup

2

Restore from backup

3

Create factory default image CD, or burn bundled software to an 
application CD

4

This chapter will guide you through each process.

Note: This feature is only available on certain models. For systems 
that do not have a built-in optical disk burner, plug in an external 
USB or IEEE 1394-compatible optical disk burner before entering 
Acer eRecovery Management for optical disk-related tasks.

Acer eRecovery Management requires a specific hard disk 
partitioning structure to function. If the system detects that the 
hard disk does not use this structure, Acer eRecovery Management 
functionality will be disabled.
