Go to home screen by pressing the little house icon on right side bezel then from homescreen press the settings button which is one button below the house icon button then go to Privacy then Factory Reset. It will erase the tablet and put it back to original factory condition.

there's a reset 'button' on the rear near the unit's on/off switch....use a straightened out paperclip or something similar.....

Found this solution:Don't worry! Easy fix. Hold down volume button and power button, and plug charger in and wait. Recovery menu should pop up, select start and off you go :)

Try power cycling the keypad. There is a question that is asked upon exiting the program menu that asks if you want to allow installer re-entry. If this is answered no, you have reboot the unit to regain access.

If it would take it you would have to install xp and then try a restore. But with the bios and chipset it may not work right.

I had the same problem. Clearing the settings and starting over worked for me.

Restart your computer and repeatedly press F8 while you turn it on. This should bring you to some menu. Press system restore restore back to the date it worked. I had the same problem and this advice worked for me.

You press F9 as soon as you turn on the pc to enter the recovery mode.<< F9 Quick Recovery KeyOn Eee PCs, users can easily recover system files that were accidentally altered or deleted. During boot up, by pressing the F9 key, users reset the factory default system files to external USB storage, and users can also easily restore the system back to its original factory settings. The system restore function is especially important when the Eee PC is infected with a virus or important system files are accidentally deleted. >>

Try going into your bios and switching the RAID mode for the drive/port from AHCI to IDE. That may allow you to boot so you can update the bios.

Try to reenter your password. If that doesn't work than you need tech support.

If the support does not agree to send the recovery CD's free you can purchase a set from them for $20 at:https://secure.tx.acer.com/RCDB/Main.aspx?brand=acer

Same problem here. When backing up my music and photos I kept getting this error message, now I'm thinking the hard drive might be dead. Hope I can recover my backed up files.

I know there is a reset if you can get back into the menu. If you can't, the only thing I know to do is to unplug the unit? Not sure about that one. Never happened to me.

Try pushing the reset button on the side. You might have to use a paper clip or pin, but that worked for me when mine locked up.
