If you decide to get the Windows 7 media from Acer you will be asked for the SNID by them, this is so they know which version of Windows is appropriate to your particular computer.
No need to quote every reply btw, it only makes for unnecessary work for you and doesn’t actually help any.
Pertaining to your inquiry, we found out that the serial number of your unit is over the warranty.

sorry for no updates as I don’t have access to internet..i have just request my friend to format my pc and install windows..it is successful. thanks for your help. I would like to know what would be the basic apps for the new formatted windows.
Your choice of programs is purely a personal one, but given your recent experience would suggest your first app to be backup software. Macrium and Aoemei make excellent free versions meaning there is no excuse for nor safeguarding your operating system and files. Remember files that are not backed up are files you don’t care about.
@toreee do you consider your original issue resolved?
I have just format my pc..now would like to get advice on what should I install to protect my pc and use for normal usage for example antivirus,microsoft office etc.
For AV protection, it depends on what version of Windows have you installed, if Windows 7 Microsoft Security Essentials
Microsoft Office costs a fair amount of money so would suggest that you take a look at Apache Open Office which is free.
We could do with knowing the version of Windows you are now running so that we can suggest the appropriate AV, Firewall and on demand scanner etc.
Focus on system backup and cloning, AOMEI Backupper provides complete yet easy data backup, files syncing and disk cloning software for personal and business on Windows PC and Server.
For security protection, MSE as already suggested, use the Firewall as well, Super Anti Spyware (free version only) and MBAM also only the free version which you can download from here make sure that you do not directly download the free 14 day trial of Premium as it also provides real time protection and will conflict with MSE and cause you problems.
