Touchpad
The built-in touchpad is a pointing device that senses movement on its
surface. This means the cursor responds as you move your finger across
the surface of the touchpad. The central location on the palmrest provides
optimum comfort and support.
Touchpad basics (with two buttons)
The following items show you how to use the touchpad with two buttons.
• Move your finger across the touchpad to move the cursor.
• Press the left and right buttons located beneath the touchpad to perform
selection and execution functions. These two buttons are similar to the
left and right buttons on a mouse. Tapping on the touchpad is the same
as clicking the left button.

once.
Note: Illustrations for reference only. The exact configuration of your
PC depends on the model purchased.
Note: When using the touchpad, keep it — and your fingers — dry and
clean. The touchpad is sensitive to finger movement; hence, the
lighter the touch, the better the response. Tapping harder will not
increase the touchpad's responsiveness.
Note: By default, vertical and horizontal scrolling is enabled on your
touchpad. It can be disabled under Mouse settings in Windows
Control Panel.

Recovery
English
Recovery
If you are having trouble with your computer, and the frequently asked
questions (see page 52) do not help, you can 'recover' your computer - i.e.
return it to an earlier state.
This section describes the recovery tools available on your computer. Acer
provides Acer Recovery Management, which allows you to create a
recovery backup, a drivers and applications backup, and to start recovery
options, either using Windows tools, or the recovery backup.
Note: Acer Recovery Management is only available with a pre-
installed Windows operating system.
Important: We recommend that you create a Recovery Backup
and Drivers and Applications Backup and as soon as possible.
In certain situations a full recovery will require a USB recovery
backup.
Creating a recovery backup
To reinstall from a USB storage drive, you must first create a recovery
backup. The recovery backup includes the entire original contents of your
computer’s hard drive, including Windows and all factory-loaded software
and drivers. Using this backup will restore your computer to the same
state as when you purchased it, while giving you an option to retain all
settings and personal data.
Note:
Make sure you have a USB drive with a capacity of at least 16 GB.
1. From Start, type 'Recovery' and then click Acer Recovery
Management in the list of apps.
17
English
2. Click Create Factory Default Backup. The Recovery Drive window
opens.
Make sure Copy contents from the recovery partition to the recovery
drive is selected. This provides the most complete and safest recovery
backup.
3. Plug in the USB drive then click Next.
• Make sure your USB drive has enough capacity before continuing.
The recovery backup requires at least 16 GB of storage
4. You will be shown the backup progress on the screen.
5. Follow the process until it completes.
6. After creating the recovery backup, you can choose to delete the
recovery information on your computer. If you delete this information,
you can only use the USB recovery backup to restore your computer, if
you lose or erase the USB drive, you cannot restore your computer.
18
Recovery
English
7. Unplug the USB drive and label it clearly.
Important: Write a unique, descriptive label on the backup, such
as 'Windows Recovery Backup'. Make sure you keep the backup
in a safe place that you will remember.
Creating a drivers and applications backup
To create a Drivers and Applications Backup, that contains the factory-
loaded software and drivers needed by your computer, you may use either
a USB storage drive or, if your computer features a DVD recorder, one or
more blank recordable DVDs.
1. From Start, type 'Recovery' and then click Acer Recovery
Management in the list of apps.
2. Click Create Drivers and Applications Backup.
Plug in the USB drive or insert a blank DVD into the optical drive, then
click Next.
19
English
• If you are using a USB drive, make sure your USB drive has enough
capacity before continuing.
• If using DVDs, it will also show the number of blank, recordable discs
you will need to complete the recovery discs. Make sure that you
have the required number of identical, blank discs.
3. Click Start to copy files.You will be shown the backup progress on the
screen.
4. Follow the process until it completes:
• If you are using optical discs, the drive ejects each disc as it
completes burning it. Remove the disc from the drive and mark it with
a permanent marker.
If multiple discs are required, insert a new disc when prompted, then
click OK. Continue until the process is complete.
• If you are using a USB drive, unplug the drive and label it clearly.
Important: Write a unique, descriptive label on each backup,
such as 'Drivers and Applications Backup'. Make sure you keep
the backup in a safe place that you will remember.

Recovery

Recovering your system
To recover your system:
1. Perform minor fixes.
If only one or two items of software or hardware have stopped working
correctly, the problem may be solved by reinstalling the software or the
device drivers.
To reinstall software and drivers that were pre-installed at the factory,
see "Reinstalling drivers and applications" on page 20.
For instructions on reinstalling software and drivers that were not pre-
installed, see that product’s documentation or support Web site.
2. Revert to a previous system condition.
If reinstalling software or drivers does not help, then the problem may be
solved by returning your system to a previous state when everything
was working correctly.
For instructions, see "Returning to an earlier system snapshot" on
page 22.
3. Reset your operating system.
If nothing else has solved the problem and you want to reset your
system, but keep your user information, see "Returning your system
to its factory condition" on page 23.
4. Reset your system to its factory condition.
If nothing else has solved the problem and you want to reset your
system to factory condition, see "Returning your system to its factory
condition" on page 23.
Reinstalling drivers and applications
As a troubleshooting step, you may need to reinstall the applications and
device drivers that came pre-installed on your computer from the factory.
You can reinstall using either your hard drive or the backup you have
created.
• Other applications - If you need to reinstall software that did not come
pre-installed on your computer, you need to follow that software’s
installation instructions.
• New device drivers - If you need to reinstall device drivers that did not
come pre-installed on your computer, follow the instructions provided
with the device.
