1141140 2010-10-02 20:22:00 Hi, i have a acer aspire one mini net book and i installed windows 7 ultimate over XP and it works great, but the programs i need to use aren't compatible with windows 7, i want to restore it back to factory XP with the D2D recovery (e recovery) but the f10/alt f10 doesn't work. How can i fix this? its4taylor (15996)
1141141 2010-10-02 20:32:00 What programs? Everything I used on XP works on win 7.

Have a look at this link (www.fixya.com)

Does it have a restore partition or recovery discs?

That's because you probably overwrote your recovery partition when you installed win7, so unless you made a recovery set of discs (from that partition) as advised by the manufacturer, you're out of luck.:eek:
You may be able to order a set from the manufacturer or the vendor.
Alternatively, if there is a sticker on the netbook with a 25 character code ( your COA ), you should be able to use a borrowed xp disc (as long as it matches type (OEM etc)), to reinstall.
