Acer Iconia W500 Factory Reset with no Discs

[squee113]

I have an Acer Iconia W500 w/ Windows 7 that I would like to factory reset. My only issue is that I got it used and I don't have the restore discs that came with it. Is there any way for me to factory reset without needing the discs?

See if you have the recovery partition on the system http://acer.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/2631

If that does not work, you need to look for a set of restore disks either from ACER support or ebay or something similar.

First check the programs for the disk maker utility and maybe you can just make yourself a new set of disks.
