Your issue is caused by a third party encryption application that is not part of Vista.

PSD or "Personal Secure Disk" is the Acer edata Security utility, and to my knowledge this is no "password reset" You may want to contact Acer.

One thing you can try is a System Restore in Vista to see if you can reset back to a point before you encrypted.

start>in search, type restore> Click "system restore">click "continue">

You can also try right clicking on the file itself, click "properties", and select "previous Versions" to restore an unencrypted version of the file, If existing.
