Google search Acer diagnostic CD. Download and burn .iso. Boot from
the CD and run the diagnostic and see what errors it returns. You
could be having several different issues causing the machine to lock
up and become unresponsive. It is likely not OS after restoring to
factory settings, so it would likely be a hardware problem. There are
other things you can do such as removing/swapping memory, etc, but the
diagnostic disc should help you find the issue.
