window 7 starter

I used the restore to factory settings on my Acer Aspire one and I get this error:

Restore failed: error code 0x45d. (WIM Apply Image cannot apply image: The request could not be preformed because of and I/O device error.

Can this be fixed or should I just scrape this computer for a new one.
Thanks

Try again to do the restore. Question: Why did you see the need to do a restore? What problem was the machine having?
