As plodr has said if you format the HDD you have no way of reinstalling Windows, two options, order the recovery media as also suggested by plodr or try and free up enough storage space on the HDD so that Windows can update.
Start by uninstalling any old games or unused programs and downloading then running the MBAM uninstall tool, download here once done, go to step two below;
Please download MINITOOLBOX and run it.
Checkmark the following boxes:
Flush DNS
Reset FF proxy Settings
Reset Ie Proxy Settings
Report IE Proxy Settings
Report FF Proxy Settings
List content of Hosts
List IP configuration
List Winsock Entries
List last 10 Event Viewer log
List Installed Programs
List Users, Partitions and Memory size
List Devices (problems only)
Attach the results to your next reply for us please.Comment

From my reply #17;
MBAM is shown to be causing you this latest problem, it was suggested a couple of days ago that it should be uninstalled using the correct procedure at the link provided, was this done.Originally posted by phillpower2Start by uninstalling any old games or unused programs and downloading then running the MBAM uninstall tool, download here once done, go to step two below;
Try restarting the computer while tapping the F8 key to see if you are able to get into Safe Mode only (No Networking) let us know the outcome.
Regarding a clean install, the problem that you have atm is that you do not have any Windows media and the computer being an OEM brand name means that you cannot download an ISO direct from Microsoft and that Acer are responsible for offering the end user support, that is where the recovery media that plodr mentions comes in, purchasing the appropriate Windows 7 recovery media (if still available) from Acer would be far less expensive than purchasing Windows 7 from Microsoft.
Also to keep in mind, there is a question mark over the legitimacy of the present Windows 7 Ultimate OS that is on the computer, with the computer powered down, take a look on the base of the computer for an OEM - Acer Microsoft Windows 7 product key sticker like the example in the attachment below, if not on the base, remove the main battery and check there as the stickers are sometimes placed there on notebooks so that they do not get worn away.Comment

If you cannot even get into Safe Mode then you definitely have to have Windows 7 media.
What version of Windows 7 does it say on the sticker.Comment

You can try using the product key off the notebook to download a Windows 7 ISO from here but I strongly suspect that you may be told to contact Acer.Comment

To get the media from Acer you will need the SNID (serial number identification) see info here
There is another way of legally obtaining an ISO but it involves a bit of work, see info at HeiDoc.net hereComment
