    I formatted my Acer Aspire One and installed Fedora Linux, but I need to reinstall Windows 7 Starter due to Skype not supporting video on Linux. The shop I purchased it from gave me 3 Acer Aspire D255 Windows 7 Starter DVD disks which I transferred to an ext USB 250GB HDD. I formatted it with NTFS as bootable which took a good 3 hrs. One thing though. The bootsect.exe command didn't work. When booting from the bootable ext HDD the Acer eRecovery Management window opens up but the only option available is EXIT. The other two options are grayed out. Any help appreciated.

    Thanks
