Contrary to the problem Raymanoff had with his Acer laptop when it went wrong- the dealer said the motherboard was not covered by the Warranty (!!!) - my repair seems to be going much better.

I had bought it on-line from the UK; there was a problem with it so while I was in london over Christmas, I called Acer, who told me to phone DHL. I did that and within 3 hours they had collected it and by late afternoon I received an Email from Acer to say they had received it and allocating a job number, which I think I can track on line.

Of course, the repair has yet to be done, so no final result yet. In the meantime I am using my new Acer Netbook - a fantastic little machine for less than £200 (<€220).

So far so good. However, how can I back up the System/Drivers etc., without a disc drive?

if you look in the free news paper what comes through the door, you will see under the computors section people advertise their servises and are usually good and will come to you and fix it, try that.
