You need to install Windows back onto the computer. So you need a windows disk to put into your Cd Drive.

Depending on the type of acer he has there might not be a disk tray.

It does have a disc tray but everytime I start the laptop it tells me to put the password in them after it sits on a blackscreen with the curser still active is there a way to download windows without the CD tray?
