So yesterday I bought this Acer laptop, right? This thing costs around 500$.
Now let me let you in on a little secret. This 500$ piece of shit which has specs so good you can run gta v, this thing doesn't have a cd-drive......
This would've been ok, if all of the needed drivers DIDN'T COME ON A CD.
Let that sink in for a bit.
A laptop without a cd-drive....has all of its needed drivers on a cd...
Bravo, Acer...I've never seen such a magestic troll in my whole life...

You should request a full refund for selling you something that can't even have its drivers installed.

Are you sure that the drivers aren't installed already? If you can get on the internet you can also download them and ignore the cds. It is hilarious though.

Also, don't buy Acer. I have an Acer laptop, it overheats all the time.

Don't buy laptops at all for anything intensive. They're not built well enough to take the heat from stuff like games or editing. Tooooooo damn cramped in there.

Fun fact: I have this piece of shit alienware laying around in here. I removed the battery in case it begins the final countdown. I also rescued all my files from it which are all very happy I did.

I can't build my own laptop! I don't have the money! And neither do my parents!

Anyways, I can't get a refund, the place where I got it from only lets me exchange the laptop with something else

P.S: I need to buy an external cd-drive, because this thing has Linpus Linux installed(which is like FreeDos).

No, no, don't build a laptop. Build an actual PC if you want to play games on it and shit. Actually, do that no matter what you want to do on it I guess. You can do cheaper.

You could have a friend with a DVD burner, build an ISO of the disk with the drivers on it.

You should be able to partition a USB stick to have 1 partition identify as a CD/DVD drive, and the other as a data storage partition. Afaics, you can also make the CD partition bootable. From there, simply burn the iso to the faux CD drive which lives on your usb stick.

OK, update on this piece of shit, plus I need some advice from you if you can help me:

So I tried for HOURSSSSS to load windows from a cd, a usb, from everything i had. NOTHING. Yet I'm trying right now yet again. If not, then Imma take this laptop to some pro my mom's friend knows.
So : Can you boot windows from an external cd drive such as this one? Note: It's not the same external cd drive I have.

Also can I burn files to a dvd without a downloaded burning software? Like, copy-paste the files onto the dvd and then right click-> Burn to disc ?

Booting from an external cd-drive, no. But you should be able to install it. If you could boot it from the cd-drive, then you'd also need room on that disc for your user folder that contains all the documents and pictures and shit you make and when you burn a disc, I think it just gets rid of all the unused space or makes it unreadable so you can't write anything further to it. I'm not totally sure how burning discs work as I haven't done it since I gave someone my horrendous RPG Maker games on cd which was yeeeeaaaars ago and it may have not actually involved burning.

But I don't see why it wouldn't be able to install from the external drive. It's USB and I installed windows on a boot drive which was just a USB stick. Just make sure to have it plugged in before hand, and then I have no idea. Go to the bios by mashing Delete or Escape or something? One of those numbered F buttons? I don't even remember if you go to bios for that. So, I'm just guessing and am too lazy to look up anything.

As for burning without software, uh...yes, I just checked and windows media player has a burn option. No idea if it's good or not but it's sure a hell of a lot better than iTunes which I may not have ever used but it's Apple and I know that they manage it like idiots and make stupid updates and that the software slows everything down.

Feel free to flame me if it turns out that nothing I said is true. I am not smurt.

Yeah, you need to go to the BIOS when the laptop starts, and change the boot order list so that whatever drive you're trying to run Windows from is FIRST. If the computer's booting from C, for example, and that's where the Linux OS is, it'll never run the Windows setup on startup. You should be able to run Windows from an external USB drive, as long as the drive shows up in the BIOS.

i have created the ultimate forest of cords maybe, but it's fine until you wanna do something, then you can't access them without stretching your body apart. i should really do something about that at some point.

cds are on a spindle thing. then there's this leather book thing with random shit like mall tycoon, tonka construction, and some greeting card program.

10 snes
19 ps1 though there are 5 or so on ps3 maybe
1 gamecube. yeah.
3 famicom
3 super famicom
12 ds and however many are in this box thing or smashed
20 3ds
16 wii
22 ps3
28 if you go by boxes since there are duplicates and one of the ps3 ones is a collection of some of these
49 pc if you count the ohio distinctive and other educational bullshit and the maximillion pegasus cd from a happy meal. also, activity cds. 491+ if you count steam also and whatever else is downloaded. that'll take universes of time to count though.
13 psp, also duplicates.
7 indie game thingies.
2 gameboy, does gameboy camera count?
1 gameboy colour
26 gameboy advance, though since these are in the box thing with the other game boy shit, there could also be some laying around in random places...between two places. or even more maybe?? if i brought them to places and lost them??? oh yeah, and this klepto kid from "school" stole a whole bunch.
2 isolated ds that are also in this box...also, it should be noted i have an empty ds box. so.

Nope, cuz my mom

2. knows that it's MY SHIT and has no right over what to do with them (especially because I paid for them)
3.doesn't give a duck about my stuff. I can throw them in the trash can, give them to a homeless person or beat a homeless person with them, she doesn't give two shits.

As for what games I have:
Morrowind GOTY
Oblivion GOTY
Skyrim Legendary
GTA Vice City
Star Craft
Assassins Creed 1 and 2
4 Lara Croft Games
Age of Empires 1 and 2 with expansions
Heroes of might and magic 3 (crappy, hd, steam version)
Gothic 1
Gothic 2
Gothic 3
S.T.A.L.K.E.R

And that's just the important stuff.
My last birthday my bro gave me some games from his game collection (50 DUCKING GAMES IN ONE BIRTHDAY). He had them all from a romanian game reviewing magazine which came togheter with a game. Over the years, my bro made a nice stack of FULL games( not demos)
For examples the gothic games and STALKER, I have them from the magazine. ONLY 4 DOLLARS MONTHLY

I also have a nintendo ds(which is hacked, so I can get games off the internet for free and play them ^-^)

Aaaand a 3DS with Ocarina of time on it.

Well, not really hacking, Maybe modding, I dunno. You buy an illegal ds cartridge from the black market/. Ok not really, you just buy a cartride from the internet that, isn't a game. It's an app that opens roms. And how do you get these roms? off the duckign internet of course!! then you put them on a memory card and then you penetrate the ds with the memory card and then BOOM. When you open the ds, a menu will open, with all the roms that you downloaded(games). This is also a good way to play homebrew games.
