Win XP on this Acer Acerpower FE is totally fubarred and I want to nuke it and do a fresh install. Got the COA sticker on the side but do not have an ACER OS CD. Nor does there appear to be a recovery partition on the HD (Alt + F10 does nothing). Nor do I have recovery disks. Will a standard OEM copy of Windows XP work or am I screwed by Acer?

TIA
 
standard OEM CD will work. You have 2 options after that, look for the preactivation kit posted online to legally preactivate the copy after install, like the factory does. Or, just type the CD key from the sticker into the activation screen.
