This is my first post here, so Hello Everyone! Have you had your problem fixed? If not, I tell you what I done. If you still have your PQSERVICE partition you are able to recovery XP from it. What you need to do: 0) disable d2d in bios 1) make under 7 partitions what you like (XP will be restored on first of them, rest of them will not be cleared or deleted, so you can store data on them) 2) if you haven't 7 but you have XP - do it under XP (it's better option) 3) install XP instead of 7 (any XP, not matter legally or not, you need it for 10 minutes) 4) you need Ubuntu live cd - boot ubuntu, create folder on your desktop and mount there first partition from your hdd (PQSERVICE) 5) then open this folder and copy two files: mbrwrwin.exe and rtmbr.bim 6) paste these files to the XP partition, to main folder 6) quit Ubuntu and run XP 7) run command line and run mbrwrwin.exe from it 8) now reboot 9) enable d2d in bios 10) press alt F10 when your lappy starts 11) now you should see Acer recovery program

It's all. If you don't know how to mount parition on Ubuntu I tell you next post.
I have done it with my AAO and it works.
Have luck!
