- In this quick and unscripted video, I'll show my method for archiving Acer Windows XP recovery partitions, and how to restore these partitions and reinstall the software onto a new hard drive. If you have any advice for how this method may be improved, do let me know!

(In the video, I used the older 15.2 version based on Windows XP. This is best for older machines)

Seamus, thanks for the video on "recovery of the Acer ZG5 software partition" it was a well thought out logical guide to the replacement of my hdd. I still use my netbook for outside work and lost my recovery disk years ago I am now back at it. if your ever in Tulsa first beers on me.
I used Clonezilla to clone the original hard drive to a SSD and the Alt+F10 recover hotkey does work. The only caveat is that Clonezilla only supports cloning to a larger drive than the original drive.
Thank You so much!!! I've been looking for the original Acer OEM Partition for the Acer Aspire 5000 and the Acer Aspire A150 (ZG5) Absolutely Everywhere!!! Those computers are completely nostalgic to me!!! You wouldn't happen to have or know someone who has the original Discs or Hidden Partition of an Acer Aspire 5715z or Acer Travelmate 4230??? I'm subscribed either way!!!
Thanks so much for the comment, and for subscribing! Sadly, I don't have the media for those machines, but if I ever come across it, I'll be sure to put it up on my archive.org page!
Thank you! This was just what I needed and couldn't be better explained... Yes, it is not a very good computer but when nostalgia comes, nothing better that some good old games running natively on the platform they where meant to, and running all the process is part of the fun! 🤓
I just did almost the same thing to my Acer aspire 4220. I did it a little bit differently though. I got the alt + f10 key working.
Oh wow! How did you do it?
@@seamusmacdonald4044 the Acer MBR has to be reinstalled. I restored it with hirens bootice feature. I located the RTMBR.BIN file in the pqservice partition.
Wait so will this work on my Acer Aspire One D257? Because few years back I downgraded from Windows 7 Starter to XP clean installed bc of how slow it was, but during the installation I lost all of my factory recovery partitions, so will this tutorial make it possible for me to restore the recovery partition back onto my old netbook??
Does anyone have erecovery media for Acer Nitro 5 N515-42 please??
I personally, don't, but I'm assuming that machine shipped with Windows 10. If that's the case eRecovery media can be ordered from Acer for about $40.
