Acer computers use a hidden partition on the hard drive to house the Acer system recovery program. You can use this recovery program to create recovery discs for your computer or for applications and drivers. It can also recover or reinstall the operating system directly from the hard drive, restoring your Acer system to its out-of-the-box condition. Booting from the hidden recovery partition on your Acer computer is easy, and only takes a few minutes. Writer Bio
