   Hi
   If it’s a dell ore an acer don’t matter to me but my sugestion to you would be to try a full clean reinstallation (hopefully you have backup of your most needed programs) i dont know if there is a possibility to press f2 or something simular to get in to bios , but go in to the bios and set your pc to boot from cd and format your harddrive and reinstall windows ,the machines drivers and your programs.
   Hope this would help you.

   do a full format of the C : disk partition and then try the disk again it should work if not its a hardware problem.

   btw how old is your hard drive? if its more than 6 years old than it probably is the hard drive

   try doing a fresh os installation with the disk. format the hard drive when doing such. there might be a corrupt file or such in the hd.

   Hey I think u should reformat the computer…then Set your computer to start in safe mode and restart it. You can also simply start your computer and press the "F8" key while it begins to load. You will be able to access safe mode from the startup utilities…Install kaspersky or AVASt antivirus..after completion of installation..Scan the computer..

   Keep in mind that reformatting your hard drive will reset it to the factor setting, so you want to make sure that you backup everything that you want to save before we begin the process.
