Personally, I'd open a chat session with Acer support ......
Tell them what you got and ask if they have any information as to how you can restore the device to factory default settings.
It likely has a factory OEM partition that you can use, it's just a matter of knowing how to get to it and use it.
Failing that they may be able to supply the recovery media for a nominal fee.

It seems around that time in the install an image is being copied around and then deleted. How much free space do you have on your hard drive?

Also try disconnecting the internet and any external devices, unless you are using some type of extra storage which the install might be using.
