Acer aspire 3000 problem Bill 12-22-2007

Hi. Have recently reformatted and reinstalled systems on my acer using the
supplied system disk plus the 3 recovery disks. Machine is up and running
but seems to be under the 'control' of xp settings and not the 'acer'
settings previously available.

eg1 Starts up showing xp log on screens rather than straight in.

eg2 'Function keys plus F keys do not provide Acer actions.

etc etc

Feels as though the acer 'overlay ' is not there. Ideas appreciated as to
how to get back to my earlier machine including all its acer functions
rather than direct xp.


Thankyou

Well - been working on this and what I've found is that its all down to
'customising ' the new setup. One of several things done was to go through
'control panel ' and open up each icon in turn to see if options are
available. Choose them to suit.

This plus right clicks on many other items with looks at 'properties and I
think I've got it how I want.

Thanks for looking and at least thinking about an answer.
