Need Help With a Windows 7/Acer Computer

So my computer seems to be all jacked up now. I keep getting messages that say I need to install my disc drive and other stuff. I can't install certain microsoft programs and it is just horrible and shitty and I have no idea how to fix it.
I want to do a complete wipe of my PC but my restore point to the very beginning is gone and Acer wants to charge me a ton of money for any kind of support. Is there anyway I can wipe my PC without a restore point or factory discs? I would really just like to get my computer to a healthy point again.

If so you can just download the official windows install dvd and just use that to do a clean install. http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/14709-Windows-7-Digital-River-direct-links-Multiple-Languages-X86-amp-X64/page72 has some links to them, and I'm assuming your going to want home premium x64.
and also a link to the win 7 dvd/usb tool, to make either an install dvd or usb stick from that iso you download: http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
after that just go to the Acer website and download the motherboard/gpu/trackpad/etc. drivers for your specific laptop model.
