How to factory reset 1520LAPTOP/computer PORTABLE DELL INSPIRON

Help, please

The procedure is given in the manual of your computer and is also available on the Dell site [where you can also download another copy of your manual if necessary].

I expect the proceedings in question either identical or very similar to:

[excerpt from the manual for Dell Inspiron 1545]

1. turn on the computer.

2 when the Dell logo appears, press several times to access the Advanced Boot Options window.

Note: If you wait too long and the operating system logo appears, continue to wait until you see the Microsoft Windows desktop; then, shut down your computer and try again.

3. Select repair your computer.  The System Recovery Options window appears.

4. Select a keyboard layout and click Next.

5. to access the recovery options, log in as a local user. To access the command prompt, type administrator in the user name field, and then click OK.

6. click on Dell Factory Image Restore. The Dell Factory Image Restore welcome screen appears.

Note: Depending on your configuration, you may need to select Dell, then Dell Factory Image Restore factory tools.

7. click on next. Data delete screen is displayed.

Note: If you do not wish to continue Factory Image Restore, click Cancel.

8. check the box to confirm that you want to continue reformatting the hard drive and restoring the system software to the factory condition, then click Next.  The restore process begins and may take five or more minutes. A message appears when the operating system and the applications installed in the factory have been restored to the State of the plant.

9. click Finish to restart the system.

  • How to factory reset iPad without ITunes?

    Recently, (today), I've updated to latest iOS for my iPad Air. While making a password, I wrote very fast because I have would be turned off. My mother called me for breakfast, so I left it there.

    Just before going to the school, I noticed it turned off and now have to enter a password. I tried until I disabled, and I kept trying and waiting time until what I looked up what to do. I tried to go to recovery mode using iTunes on my laptop (Yes, I plugged my camera), but he continues to have an error. I did it just once and he said she needed a response from my iPad itself.

    So, I would like to know how to factory reset my iPad without iTunes if it is still possible. I saw 10 + forums and websites but none were easy and confuse me a ton.

    Thank you!

    Best regards

    Yes, you should be able to reinstall, but if you can you should disable before resetting the machine.  Otherwise, if the two license activations were used and no reset you will need to contact Adobe Support by chat and ask them to reset your activations.

    You must contact the manufacturer of your computer and ordering a set of discs if you do not have or cannot create from your computer. You may also be able to restore your computer using a special hidden part of the hard drive.  The best way to find out what your options would be to check the documentation for the computer, or the support web site.

  • How to Factory Reset a system Win 8 since a Win 7 OS?

    If a church sister of mine, gave me his Dell Inspirion 3520 (Windows 8) to the difficulty. There was a windows update on which would not be completed, no matter how many times she has restarted. I managed to fix it and he crossed, showing the percentage to complete and it's usual reboot to complete. But after 20 minutes in the update, he said he was installing Windows 7! o.O

    After this "update", what remained was a clean install of Windows 7 Pro. It "seemed" she rolled back to Windows 7, because I can see the previous operating system in a Windows.old folder. But how a Windows 8 system back to Windows 7?

    in any case, I'm trying this system of factory reset so she can retrieve his computer. I see the OEM partitions on the disk, so I hope it's doable. I have installed Dell Backup and Restore. He said: he must first create an image. OK, 2 hours later it cancelled and said 'user cancelled the process, uninstall Dell Backup and Restore. " But I cancel anything! o.O

    So I tried to run again, and I got even more options. Hope to see something to do a factory reset, but most close option is to create a media factory reset. I plugged a USB 16 GB, click Next, and it gave me an error saying that "there was a mistake in the process. o.O

    I tried to get to the screen 'Repair your computer' by pressing F8 at startup, but the computer stops after a minute by clicking on the option.

    So I'm stuck. Is there another way I could get their mobile phone factory reset?
    I was able to install it by using a Windows 8 ISO from Microsoft site, instead of the factory reset?
    Any other advice?

    Thank you

    Before going any further - run a diagnostic extended hard disk (f12 at startup to join Dell diagnostics).  A failed hard drive is quite possible.

    If the drive passes the scope - and not only the flesh to live - diagnostic, which shows of BONE on the product key label (in the battery compartment)?  It may be the system comes with 7, but has been improved to 8.

    At this point, you can take advantage of the upgrade of WIndows 10 - it's free and you can get the Microsoft installation media.  Just check the label of the product key so that you get the right version (it is unlikely that this system is delivered with 7 Pro - House is on the label, you should just Windows 10 (not Pro).)  Your product key will work to install Windows 10 on the system.

    All this is based on a faulty hard drive.

    If the system shuts down during the diagnostic tests, you can have an overheating problem (is the system running hot?-if so, remove the heat sink assemblies dust).  If it is not hot but switched off, you probably have a bad mother.

  • I do not have a partition, this to say that I can not factory resets my computer HP-2000-412NR of the Win764bit?

    My drives wiped, my E:\ and D:\. I had to reintsall my audio drivers, so I uninstalled them, but when I went to reinstall them, it did not work. Now, I want to just completely my computer factory reset. How do I do that with a recovery Partition?

    I have another comuter exactly like mine. I collect anything from this computer to mine?

    Hello NateY3k,

    When you receive the disks, you want to turn on your computer and insert the first, then turn off the computer. Wait about 10 seconds and then turn on the computer and it should load discs.

    Here is a linkthat will help you with the process, when you open the link, click on "recovery from recovery discs", and which should also help a little.

    Please respond back promptly with more questions.

  • cant get factory reset software from my dell downloads page.

    Hello, I got a used Dell latitude E6410 with installed win8.1 trying to get factory reset software, especially the digitalpersona finger print away. Followed every step asked that include having an account with dell by using Internet explorer active x control and visit the "my dell download" page and the final step which is "Registry system" and the page load but nothing shows. They have tried several times. I keep record the system but can not get the spirit of the soft reset factory page. Is there something wrong with my pc or there at - it another way to get more impression of digitalpersona finger to win 8.1. Thank you

    You must be the original owner to use my downloads Dell who has purchased software that has been installed at the factory when the computer was new. Search the site of Dell support to this software. It may be available. You must have the fingerprint reader installed on the computer. This is a feature optional, not standard. Check the Device Manager.
