My acer aspire boots to a screen that only gives me 2 options.
1. F4 or F12 Then loops from black screen back to the same 2 choses. F4 or F12.
Please help!

Can you provide a little more information?

Which Acer Aspire model do you have?
Which Operating System are you running? (Windows XP, Vista, 7, Linux)

What are the F4 and F12 options designated as?

A bit more information and we can help you diagnose and potentially solve the problem.

Cheers

* What about the F4 and F12 issue as per your original post?

* As per my last post, which operating system are you using?

A little more information will go a long way...

Swarvey,

Last post was not the OP!

Antonysureshraja,

I assume you have Windows 7 Starter as your operating system?
This is a restriction of the OS. You'll need to upgrade to one of the other Windows 7 versions to get it to work.
Or... use the search function of the forum and you will find this asked and answered in great detail a number of times before.
