so i have this ACER laptop and it breaks down when the main screen is starting up (with the start button adn all the programs) half way through it fails and nothing works, no mouse no nothing, i dont have a Disc for it nor can i get to my computer to format it, is there another thing i can do, i can get to the set up at the beginning with F2 but thats pretty much it. is there a way to get into setup and format it or something, i want to instal linux after since i dont want to buy XP.
thanks for any advice
