If you want Acer's recovery function, you'll need to reset your partitions to the stock configuration and probably use the recovery to reinstall, unless the Windows installation has somehow survived all this... For obvious reasons, it's typically recommended that you leave it stock unless you...

This one's solved guys. The issue turned out to be the Marvell storage controller / AHCI drivers. There have been no errors or problems since I rolled them back. Thanks for the suggestions!

Update: I've rolled back the AHCI driver and I'm running Prime95 right now. Crossing my fingers that I've fixed it, will mark as solved if I don't run into any problems with Prime95 or otherwise in the next day. Seems perfect right now, but not sure yet. Norton's PC Checkup program froze my...
