BIOS utility
The BIOS utility is a hardware configuration program built into your computer's
Basic Input/Output System (BIOS). Since most computers are already properly
configured and optimized, there is no need to run this utility. However, if you
encounter configuration problems and get the "Run Setup" message, you will
need to run this utility.
Note: Before you run BIOS, make sure that you have saved
all open files. The computer reboots immediately after you
exit Setup.
To run the BIOS utility, press the Del key on your keyboard during computer
boot up.
Reinstalling programs
If you uninstall one of the preinstalled programs and want to reinstall it,
do the following:
1
Make sure that the system is turned on.
2 Insert the System CD into the CD or DVD drive.
3 Select the application that you want to reinstall.
4 Follow all onscreen instructions until you finish the installation.
Recovering your system
If your operating system files are lost or damaged, the recovery process will
restore your system's original factory default settings or last system backup.
Your Acer Veriton series computer includes a one-button recovery feature that
makes restoring your system quick and easy.
Acer eRecovery Management works from a hidden partition on your hard drive
that contains all the information required to restore your system.
There are two modes to recover your system. One is from the system's original
settings and another is from system backup.
Warning: Initiating the recovery operation while the operating
system is running will result in abnormal shutdown and may make
your current OS unstable or unusable.
