837089 2009-12-07 01:08:00 Yesterday my ACER desktop produced the following --
ACER E LOCK activated and now the dvd drive will not read or write.

read throught the web sites, answer is use elock to unlock. But this does not work -- elock is not listed as a program option. Beat solution from ACER is to restore unit back to factory specs where the harddisk is reformatted.

Any other forum user had the same problem and found a solution.

Looking forward to any answer.

# Go into regedit and Using the Find function,search for eLock and deleted every key in which there was a mention of eLock - be careful here - there are other combinations of these letters that are not Acer-related, so only delete keys with eLock that are Acer related.
# Run ccleaner
# Reboot
