help... anyone please =(

Hi all..
okay i just brought this new acer aspire one 150.
i was happy that i received it.
played with the internet and that, working fine until i just went to live updates and started downloading, took ages and i didn't see how it just turned itself off.
i turned it back on and then there's no icons showing like the applications.. please help to resolve this please, until i just get a refund =(

 

Have you tried to just let it run for like 10 minutes to see if Windows figures itself out?

Other then that, hit F8 as your computer is booting and boot into safe mode. From there go to your start menu (it does show up doesn't it?). In the start menu select "Acer Empowering Technology" and run Acer eRecovery managment. From there you can restore the factory image.

Let us know if that helps at all.

 

its not windows its linux =(
also i let it run like 30mins last night.. didnt sort itself out =(
i pressed f2 and f12 and the thing is theres no safe mode =(
grrrR!!!! i think im going to send it back to the website i got it from.. going to get a normal xp or vista laptop.. thanks for helping though

 

Maybe before you return it, post in the general area of Linux since it will get more views. Other then that, I have no idea about Linux Sorry.

 

What distro of Linux? Linpus?
