  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).

  As you can not access the internet on the recovery computer, use the computer that you are on to get here to do this.

  Go to the website to make your computer > Driver and Software Support Section > find your computer model number > then your operating system > locate drivers Windows 7 > download and install the desktop > copy to flash drive > transfer onto the repaired computer.

• Is it possible to restore your computer to factory without a backup requirements?

  I restored my computer using my sisters backup disks and I was just wondering.

  Hello

  In regards to what they actually do, there not much in it--a "Factory Reset" from the disk is normally faster than using recovery discs.

  The main advantage of having a set of recovery disks is that they will allow you to reinstall Windows 7, if the recovery Partition corrupted or the HARD drive had to be replaced.

  OEM recovery disks validate the installation by reading a "tattoo" on the bios chip, but as you know that your sisters drives work well on your machine, you can always create a duplicate for yourself the value as follows.

  Download and install the free software ImgBurn.

  1. create an Image file disc the 1st disc of recovery on your laptop - a guide for doing this is here.

  2 write this on a blank DVD Disk Image - a guide to it's here.

  3. Repeat for each subsequent until you have a complete set.

  Kind regards

• Can I restore my computer to factory without a disc?

  I'm having a problem with my computer.  I would like to try fixing it by restoring it to its factory settings.  I'll try just restore to a previous point before the problem started, but the restore point, I thought I had disappeared appearently factory is my next option.  Here's the problem: my computer came preloaded and I did not all discs for her.  So what I need to know is there a way to update my computer without a disc 1.

  Thanks for any help

  A backup or an image is not the same as the recovery to the disk

  If it is not clear whether you mean by backup diskettes of recovery to the game or simply a windows backup. The two are completely different

  Restore points may "disappear" due to problems of system or using third party maintenance utilities

• something was wrong all by restoring my computer to factory settings

  I apologize in advance if my formatting is screwed since

  I'm typing this from my phone.
  I tried to restore my computer settings by using recovery cd I created when I bought the computer. There are a total of 3 discs. It was fine up to two drive. While he was using the two disc, I had to go out for a while. When I came back, it was done with two disc but the screen went dark. I thought that maybe the computer went to sleep. I inserted the third disc and close the cd are derived. I waited for a while but nothing happened. I moved the mouse and you press the space bar but nothing.
  Thinking that by restarting the computer could start the recovery process, I shut down the computer using the power button while the 3 restore cd was still in the drive. When I turned it back there was a message that was missing Bootmgr and press CTRL ALT DELETE to restart the computer. Well I took cd 3, put the cd 1 back in and restarted the computer.
  He took me to the Recovery Manager and I tried to restore back to factory settings. However, the screen went black after 4 percent growth. Since then I've tried several times but the screen will Dim each time. Sometimes this happens even before entering the recovrry Manager, but other times I got to the Recovery Manager, but it darkens while I'm selecting the options. Sometimes he also streaks of color (as seen on a cable channel that you have not subscribed to) on the screen before it darkens. The screen also keeps going from a darker shade of black to a lighter while the cd is in the slot.
  What can I do to get out of this quagmire. I would appreciate your help.

  Hello

  What is the brand and model of the computer?

  What is the exact error message with Bootmgr?

  I would like to you see this article-

  Note: Make sure that you back up the data on the computer before you continue.

  Hello. How to restore my Vaio (Model PCG - 71318L) computer to the factory settings. I don't want to do a system restore to a point in time. I want to restore it to factory settings.
