How to reset to Factory Image Laptop Inspiron 15

I have an Inspiron 15 that is stuck in a reboot loop.  It starts and gets to the Windows login screen.  It is Windows 10 and has been upgraded to Windows 8, about 6 months ago.  In about 15 seconds, it restarts again.   I want to reload the OS and have connected an external HARD drive, but the system did not see when he starts.

Someone at - it ideas?

Problem solved.  I was able to get into the BIOS when the computer reboots.  There, I changed to the legacy boot and the boot order to USB first.  I was not able to enter the BIOS of the other pc Windows 10 so it's a surprise.

  • How to reset to factory default settings, as if it was brand new?

    I have a laptop Toshiba L300. I want to reset the laptop to factory default settings.

    The reason is that whenever I use the browser firefox internet and explore when I do a search using the search engine, and when all the search results are listed and I click on a particular site, it takes me to a page at random. Once in a while, it may take me to the page I'm supposed to be after clicking on the site, but most of the time it takes to a crazy page irrelevant.

    So I downloaded another web browser (google chrome) and there is no problem at all. I hope that if I restore the default settings, the problem can be solved.
    Can anyone help?

    Hey,.

    Yes, I think reset factory settings would be best choice for this issue. You can use the recovery disk or recovery disk Toshiba feature.

    Where is the difference?

    -The procedure of recovery of HARD drive, you need to start using the advanced boot menu (F8) and repair my computer option. Follow the instructions on the screen and Windows will be resettled in the files on the HARD drive second. Only the first partition will be erased

    -The Toshiba recovery disc erase your entire HARD drive. This means that you should back up files on the second partition as well. In addition you must boot from that disk.

    Good luck! :)

  • Satellite A300 - how to reset to factory settings?

    Hello everyone,

    first of all, sorry for my English, it is not my native language and I do a lot of mistakes, I hope you can understand me correctly.

    My problem is that I have a toshiba Satellite A300 provided with Windows Vista op time after I have bought I installed windows 7 on it (you know, so new that I have to try). Now, my problem is I want to reset my phone. I have the recovery disks, and the folder HDDRecovery D: but my computer cannot read.

    What can I do? I tried a lot of things... How can I reboot my computer to factory settings?

    Hope you can help me,

    Best regards.

    Hi biguri,.

    After the installation of another operating system, you will need to use the Toshiba Recovery disk to restore to factory settings. That means Vista preloaded with all the drivers and tools you get back if you boot from the recovery disc and follow the on-screen instructions.

    But don't forget to make a backup of the important files like photos, videos, etc., because the recovery disk will wipe the entire HARD disk.

    You have problems with the recovery disk?

  • How do sound on my new laptop Inspiron 17?

    There sound to the store, and Dell's online troubleshooting tool did not find a problem. The noise seems to be turned on and the volume is up, but still no sound. I have Windows 7.  Can anyone help?

    In Windows 7. Open the properties of the sounds by right clicking on the audio icon on the taskbar (in the form of a speaker), and then click "reading devices". A list of playback devices. We'll call the speakers/headphones or speakers. If that one does not say "Default Device", then right-click on it and make it the default playback device.

    If it does not help reinstall your sound driver. Open Device Manager (click the Start button, then type or paste it into the area of research devmgmt.msc and click on the first item that appears). Expand the sound... Category of controllers. Find your audio driver and right-click on it. Select this option to uninstall. Do NOT select the option to delete or remove the files. Reboot the laptop. Windows will be re - install the driver from the files that were not deleted, but the pilot is now reset to its original configuration. In other words that the problem will be resolved if it was due to a bad configuration of the driver settings, because the default behavior is to let him play the audio through the headphones or the speakers.

    I can't tell you the exact name of your audio driver in Device Manager because you did not provide the name of full model of your laptop, but it's Realtek, Conexant, or IDT high definition Audio Device (or Codec). If you need more help, please indicate the name of full model of your laptop. The Inspiron 17 models are:

    Inspiron N7010, 3721, 3737, 7737, 1720, 1721, 1750, 1764, 5748. There are also other Inspiron models under the name of 17R.

    Tell what type of audio that you tried to play, for example mp3 or else files and the name of the media player you use.

  • Satellite Pro P200-1JV - how to reset to factory settings?

    Hello

    I'm trying to reset my Satellite Pro P200-1JV to factory settings. I tried pressing reset and turn on, also tried pressing F8 and turn on and no system recovery doesn't happen as I was told that it should.

    I put everything in place of discs with it and it's a Vista operating system.

    Help, please!

    Thank you!

    Hi alanmanley,

    Why you press the zero key to restore factory settings?
    You can restore the factory settings if you go into the advanced Windows (F8) boot menu and select Repair my computer. Then will begin the recovery of HARD drive and reinstall Windows.

    In addition, this option is available on OS preinstalled Toshiba and the recovery disc, that you create yourself as mentioned in the user manual.

    Last but not least check this article:

  • Satellite L30 - 10Y - how to reset to factory settings?

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L30 - 10Y, I want to back to factory setting, but how can I do this?

    Thank you
    Niall

    Hi prescott91,

    You have the Toshiba Recovery disk? If so, it is very easy: just boot from that disk and follow the instructions on the screen. The recovery disk will delete the whole HARD disk restore factory settings and then recreate the partitions.
    So if you have important data on it, make a backup of it if not already done.

    But it is also described in your user manual. Have a look at. It s interesting documentation. ;)
