I mean, I assume there will be an issue between the HP stuff on the drive and the Acer machine regarding drivers and all that so.
Select 'Commands/Feature Sets',
When attempting to install the operating system and it asks me where I want to install it I am shown the 4 partitions with the HP recovery, HP tools, system and Primary. I am putting a hard drive from a HP Compaq into an Acer machine (both drives had the same OS on them). Obviously it still has all the info on the drive from the old laptop so I am wondering I pulled a smaller drive out of a laptop I had laying around that has a bad motherboard and replaced the bad drive with it. Tried using a win7 disc I had to repair and or reinstall the OS but it hangs up. tried accessing the acer e recovery on the hidden partition but it hangs up. it appears I cannot do anything with that drive.
