Hi everyone,
I am happy to join the forums :)
I would like to format my ACER desktop, which has a WIN8 on it.
Afterwards, I'd have to reinstall the WIN8, and I assume that I'd need the License Key to reinstall it, right?
I have 2 questions please,

Hello,
I just had my laptop reformatted. Few days later, my cursor kept on jumping around so I updated my drivers. Few days after that, I receive a message whenever I turn on my laptop and it says that my hard drive is failing or something like that. Then today I got a blue screen while I'm in...
