Because I can't see nothing else on this fkn laptop, just that [root@localhost/]#, I put cd to instal Widnows but laptop show the same thing! (sry woman) :/
then edit the BIOS for first boot to be CD/DVD instead of HDD, problem solved. install MS if that's what you want with a real DVD from MS.
I can't do nothing, I will go in store and back this laptop!
I hope this ends up working out for you. Sounds as if you were sold a laptop where either you had a misunderstanding about what OS was supposed to be on it, or the product was misrepresented to you. Either case, I hope it works out that you can get it resolved to your satisfaction.
Tnhx to all of you, I put in cd with windows 8 and laptop start install, I write for my Acer Aspire E510, the problem is solved with Windows 8...! And also sorry for my bad English Im from Macedonia ))!
