I 'inherited' an Acer Aspire 7720, will the Ultimate Boot CD start this computer?

It might or might not depending on the problem, the cd did not fix my problem, however it did correct problem on a friends computer. If the problem is caused by something like a bad component it will not, no way to say for certain except try it

Unfortunately I don't believe it will. Mine was doing the same thing as some startup files were erased and it would not allow me to go past startup. This disk was completely useless in helping me at all. I spent 50.00 on repair disks only to have to buy a Windows refurbished computer drive for a few more dollars. Hope this helps you.

Sure do! Every one that we have ordered we have put an ssd and clean install of windows 7. Turn off uefi mode in bios.

With my ASUS UEFI BIOS my boot priority allows me to choose any device that has boot software to boot from. I can boot from an external HDD or a flash drive or DVD.

No, you would have to put files that will boot up the computer along with the DVD for the OS or the files on it.

If you havent already seen it, look at "ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1215N-PU17-BK recovery disc" above.

Yes you can. I did a upgrade install of 7 ultimate and had no problems with the drivers or included software. With a clean install, Windows 7 should find most of the drivers you need. Any others you should be able to get on Acer's website.

Very quick startup - the only drive mine has is a 128 gig solid state drive. You can get different configurations of this computer either from Lenovo or Newegg

I doubt it. My Aspire has completely different E1-########. I had to get a power cord directly from ACER, and that was a pain - have all your ID and Model, etc. numbers ready.

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.

Hi Don't know 100% but earlier the keys were in the bottom of the laptop. Also you bougth the licence with the laptop so either Microsoft or Acer should assit you with all isseues. And the clone should work as original and Microsoft should recognize your licence number. Ask these fellows before proceedeing in case you still hesitate.

I used a SATA drive for the boot disk and it was running Windows Vista.It did have an IDE CD-ROM drive that worked fine.I think the BIOS allows you to set the IDE drive as the boot, but I no longer have the system with me.My family member went back to their home, out of state, so I have no way of testing.

Simple answer, yes. It contains a booklet with codes too so you can see exactly what is going wrong during boot up. If it sometimes doesn't boot up, could be dust build up.

If the Bios on windows 8 will allow you to boot on the CD device on an extrnal drive where Ubuntu is residing, I d not see why not!Arhontovlahos Blahodemarhos

The Acer C720 supports legacy BIOS via Sea BIOS, so you can create a bootable USB, and then install over ChromeOS on the SSD. Vanilla 3.11.6 kernel works out of the box with the exception of the trackpad, so Linux mint will likely put you in a similar state.

My X1 carbon laptop came with Windows 7 Pro 64 bits pre-installed + a windows 8 (can't remember which version) CD

I bought my Asus netbook off of eBay. I upgraded the OS to Windows 7 Home Premium before I purchased the external cd player.
