Acer OS boot Partition has gone loopy

Asked by JohnMcConnachie in Norton Ghost Backup Software, Operating Systems Miscellaneous, Disk Partition Tools

Hello, who ever is reading this.  I need some help with my laptop, i had some problems a couple of weeks ago with my acer laptop.  The hard drive went wrong due to moving some partions and it crashing half way.  I have got that sorted and have visat back on my computer, but my problems is that due to these problems i think that the partition that hold the OS is not working.  I had to download a copy of vista off the net and do it the hard way.  

What i would like to know is it possable to rebuild the acer OS partition so if i have to re-install windows again can it be done from this partition how it is meant to?

As you can guess i do not want to sent my computer back to Acer as they will want to charge me alot to do it!

I have a copy of Norton ghost drive, but after reading abit i am not sure if this is what i thought it was and if this would do the job needed.

And just to add one more thing, I do not want the acer stuff back I would like to make my own with just the OS and correct drivers for my laptop, and maybe some other system programs that I use!Start Free Trial
