Well that's one way to do it.
Easy. Slow, but easy.
Make your CD drive on mane computer sharable on the network.
Right click on it, click sharing and security - share.
On your acer go to my network places, you shall see it there.
Double click and it will run the install.

Share out the CD drive over the network ( as long as you can see it ) Or "Map" the drive to your laptop.

You can also use something called daemon tools,
It is image mounting software that makes your computer think there's a physical drive.
So you can make an image of the disk you are trying to install, copy to thumb drive plug it in the Acer and off you go.
