Hello all
I could really use some help. I had to take my laptop in to b
recovered because for reasons unknown my system was completely wipe
out.

I am running on Windows XP right now. I had Windows Vista Business whe
I purchased the pc which is a Acer Travelmate 5520-5678. The recover
disk only had windows XP. Is there anyway possiable to get the Window
Vista Business back without having to purchase it since it was alread
installed on my PC? I have my key code but I the recovery disk only ha
Windows XP like I said. PLEASE help if you can

Contact the computer's manufacturer to obtain the proper Recovery Disk
for the OS that you purchased with the computer.
