Help on re-imaging Netbook. Trying to load on the original win 7 starter (no disc only serial number on base of ze7). I could load full blown win 7 as I have disc & serial.
Q1 merits of each version for a Netbook. Is full win7 too bloated?
Q2 how do I install win 7 starter (see issue below)
HDD failed on Netbook. No install disc came with product. Acer want £50 for the disc as user should make their own disc as part of backup regime???
I have other Netbook the same model but apparently the backup is hardware dependant so will not work on another exact model (acer). Is this true and is there a way around this such as using the serial from the second ze7 also?
I want to make a backup from the other unit or try to copy the recovery partition from the faulty drive to a new drive. Anyone tried anything like this or should I just put full copy of win 7 on and be done with it?
