  Depends on how you pressed the F8 key:

  excerpt from the above link:

  You have to press before the logo Windows appears on the screen. If you press after the Windows logo appears on the screen, the Advanced Boot Options menu will not appear on the screen. If you do not see the menu Advanced Startup Options , restart the computer, and then repeat this step until you see the menu on the screen.

• Toshiba A30 restore factory settings

  pretty stupid question, but I need to restore factory settings, does anyone know how to do?
  Ive tried the system restore forest and it goes back only to a certain point
  I don't know what else to do?

  Hi Carolina,.

  When you say 'Restore factory settings', do you mean that you want to restore your A30 to its original condition, with original OEM software installation etc. That you could do it using the recovery CD, but this will remove one of your own data and software as well as raw product updates that you can download.

  Is it just that you have a problem with your system that may be corrected, rather than do a full restore?

  My daughter has loaded all kinds of software on his laptop, now that I've done the esc & F8 on reboot and may go as far as to restore factory settings, but cannot go further. Someone got no clue on my next step?

  I can't help you much without a bit more info about your laptop and what the problem is here, but if you want to use F8 I assume you want to install OS using the procedure of recovery of HARD drive so here's the guideline how do

• Satellite L350 - restore factory settings

  Hello

  I have a L350 and have had problems with my keyboard, my laptop keep thinking that the control key is stuck. I found that when this happens my keyboard stops working properly, but if go into control panel--> change keyboard and just click on all (not to change anything just open & then close) it seems ok again for a while. I want to restore factory settings, but when I shut down or restart my keyboard no longer works, so I can't press the keys or value to boot from the disc. I tried to plug in a USB keyboard, but it's the same leading me to believe it's a software problem not hardware.

  Back, someone knows what can do to solve this problem?

  Thank you

• Restore factory settings

  I want to restore my laptop to original settings. My laptop does not start the operating system. It restarts only to the point where I see the 'Vaio' logo

  I can press F10 to use Recovery Wizard. But I don't have the recovery CD.

  I wanted to know, can I still use F10 to restore my laptop to factory without these CD manufacturing settings. I really don't care about data on my laptop, if it erases everything that I want to just restore factory settings

  Hello

  Restart the computer, keep tapping F10 key, press button to start editing option, Recovery Wizard select start and click on ignore VAIO Care rescue (if you do not want to back up data) to start the system recovery process.

  How to restore your computer settings certainly depend on what brand of computer you use. You must contact the manufacturer or your computer's manual should give you guidance on how to use your disks restore provided with your computer or the hidden partition.

  Please note that means restoring the computer to the factory settings, restore the computer to the State that you have first obtained it in. You would lose your programs that you have installed, your data, etc etc. It would be like a new installation.

  Consider other options first.

• Satellite 2450-210: how to restore factory settings?

  I have a satellite 2450-210 I want to restore settings (wipe hd etc.) for my daughter to use.

  Can someone give me details on how to do it

  thanx

  Do you have a recovery CD?
  This disc is necessary if you want to restore the laptop back to factory settings.

  If you n t have this disc then you will need to use a clean Microsoft Windows CD (Win XP would be the best) for the installation of the OS.

  Toshiba drivers can be downloaded from the European driver Toshiba page
  Because this device is an oldie, the drivers have been moved to the archives (in the product type click on archive).

• Flag 23: Restore factory settings

  This unit came with Windows 8, later I upgraded Windows 10.  If I restore it to factory settings it will stay with Windows 8 or 10 of Windows?

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  To answer your question, a factory reset restores the PC to its ORIGINAL operating system because it's what is recorded in the recovery on the PC partition when it is first created.

  However, try to do it now using HP Recovery Manager is almost certainly NOT going to work - because the upgrade of Win10 is known to corrupt information HP recovery: HP Recovery Manager blocked after Windows 10 Upgrade - HP Support Forum's - 5170752

  To do a factory reset NOW, you will need to order recovery HP media.

  It is a set of DVD and a CD or a USB key, which will erase the hard drive (removing all data, applications and settings, reinstall the original OS, drivers and utilities for HP. In some cases, you will be able to order a USB instead of discs.  You must order at HP; they cannot be downloaded.
  
  You can look online for recovery from the paged media related: http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers
  
  Once there, enter your product name or number. On your software page and download the drivers, select your operating system and version. Click on "Update".  If the HP recovery support is available for your computer, down near the bottom of the page, you will see an entry for the command Recovery Media-CD/DVD/USB. Click on the symbol '+' to expand this entry and click on order to press for more details.
  
  Or, if you prefer, you can do the same by contacting HP Customer Service:
  
  If you live in the United States or the Canada, details are on this page: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/phone-assist.html#section1
  
  If you live elsewhere, contact details are on this page: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-contact-us.html
  
  NOTE: once you get through, stay on the line until you are finally able to talk to someone ' one - it can take a while!
  ---------------------------------------
  However, HP customer care is generally not available on weekends, so you will have to wait until Monday to contact them.
  ---------------------------------------
  
  If HP no longer provides a recovery media for your model, a few other sites, you can check are: http://www.computersurgeons.com/ and http://www.restoredisks.com/

  Good luck

• Satellite L655 - 14 d - how to restore factory settings?

  Hello, I'm Ali.

  I have the Toshiba Satellite L655 - 14 d. I have format my laptop and repartition the HARD disk and reinstall Windows 7 from disc and I already save folder HDDrecovery...
  Now, how can I restore my laptop to factory settings?

  I hope to hear the solutions...
  Thank you
  ALI ADEL

  Hi Ali,

  To clarify some things: you reinstall Windows 7 recovery disk Toshiba or Microsoft Windows disk?
  If you have used the Toshiba Recovery disk, follow the instructions posted by Akuma. You can use the HDDrecovery feature to restore your laptop to factory settings.

  If you have used the Microsoft disk you need recovery disk from Toshiba. HDDrecovery is a Toshiba feature and cannot be used with the operating system preinstalled. That is why it s not enough that you have already saved the folder HDDrecovery, it will not work!

  If you don t have a recovery disc, you can order it here:

• Re: Satellite L500-128 - how to restore factory settings?

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L500-128. A couple of months, I installed the upgrade to windows 7. Now, I want to clean my computer laptop everything. I want to restore the factory settings, but I have no idea how to do that. Does anyone has an idea how to solve this problem?

  Thank you

  Hey,.

  What do you want exactly?

  Normally it is easy to restore the factory settings. You need only the Toshiba Recovery disk you created, I think. Therefore, enter the disk and start it. The Setup menu will be loaded and you can follow the instructions on the screen. Factory settings will be restored with all the drivers and tools.

  Also, don't forget to backup your data. Everything on the HARD drive will be erased.

• Satellite A500 - how to restore factory settings?

  Hello

  I had software problems with my A500. I made the recovery disc. I tried to find a way to use these but can't find it in the manual that I downloaded.

  Am I just thinking I have the boot disk 1 in the drive of the computer lights up continuously by pressing F12 while it is booting and then select start from the DVD drive? Then, I guess it will give the steps online about how the process is done for resume to factory settings.

  Thanks Zari

  Hello

  You are good friend. First, you will need to insert the disc 1 into your CD/DVD drive. Then, restart the computer and go into the boot menu by pressing F12. Select your CD/DVD drive and the computer will boot from this drive. After that, follow the instructions on the screen, factory settings will be restored in a few minutes. During installation, we need to change the drive, I think, but the computer will give you information on this subject.

  Don t forget that Toshiba Recovery disk erases the entire HARD disk. This means you must make a backup of all important files. Therefore, you can use an external HARD drive or you burn on DVD s.

  Good bye

  * Thank you *.

  Hello!

  The best way to restore the original configuration is the Toshiba recovery disc. You only have to boot from that disk and follow the instructions on the screen. The whole HARD disk will be erased and install an image of factory settings. After that, you have the same State as the first time that you have started the laptop.

  If you n t have the Toshiba recovery disc you must install Windows using a Microsoft disc, then download and install all the driver from the Toshiba page step by step.

• Satellite L650 - how to restore factory settings?

  Hello

  I formatted my Windows Home Premium OEM (on the C drive) and now I need to restore my laptop to factory, and I do not know how and if I try this: press and hold the value 0 (zero) key and at the same time, press the button of power once to turn on your computer laptop nothing happen.

  Hey Buddy,

  If you have installed another operating system or formatted the HARD drive, you are not able to restore the factory settings because of HARD drive recovery files are deleted. HARD drive recovery option can only be used with the pre-installed Windows version and not with other facilities.

  In your case, you have the Toshiba Recovery disk but it seems that you didn't read the manual because you don t have such a drive. This disk must be created yourself with preinstalled recovery media creator.

  Now it s too late for this, but you can order such a drive of Toshiba directly and it will help you to restore the original settings of the case:
