Restoration of the factory without recovery disks

Hello

I bought a new laptop Sony Vaio VGN-AR870 in June 2008 and I enjoyed it a bit. It seems to me have succeeded to it bogged down and it works more slowly and more slowly and for a long time and I have remember how it is used to run when I bought it first of all I would like to restore it to factory settings and to give it another go, so to speak. I don't have recovery discs and I did everything when I got the laptop. How best should I go to this topic? My system restores are all set points in recent months, it is a step to go. Could I use a friends vista windows recovery disc and just manually install the drivers from the Vaio esupport site?

Thanks for reading,

Jordan

I had an old set of model V from Sony. Backstage staff showed me by pressing F10 continuously when you start will bring you to an option of restore factore. But keep in mind that he wiped out all of your memory.

I used to do once every two months and it has worked like a charm.

    I guess you tried maintained low men together for about 6 seconds - silver 1 ATV that will restart to the diagnostic partition but who would rely on the hard disk is functional and if it was ok that wouldn't work with the logic board failure.

    I guess you have not fed and attempted to restart.

    In case your AppleTV think it is paired with another remote try Menu and left arrow for 6 seconds - the light now intervenes when you press the buttons on the remote?

    Also, it could be in the video mode bad - try Menu and upward arrow together for 6 CES switch video modes, but implies that he actually started OK.

  • Satellite L350D-213 - restoration of the factory without disks

    Hello

    I came to this page because the Web, so many people say you don't need a disk and many others say that you do! {Massive headaches} CONFUSED!

    After last week, ending up with the UKASH virus on my computer, a friend helped and explains to go into MSCONFIG in safe mode and disable all, then I could finally get into my normal settings and do a scan to wipe it. I ran ad-aware, but later removed that he had fallen behind EVERYTHING, including IE. Then, I saved all my stuff and deleted from my computer to make room. I then did some general research and followed the instructions. "speed up my performance" followed by a few scans/clean ups and Defrags.

    I don't remember what I did to remove panic and difficulty Ukash and performance thereafter, except that I know that some applications do not work, because of a name of a file I know I deleted as 'my speed' and some I do not know why they do not work.

    After spending TWO WEEKS on this issue, it is better, the UKASH went, my performance is faster BUT the strange problem of a file, and I'm done with him! I want to do a factory restore to put all rights that I can and have done wrong.

    My question is; Can I do a record of WITHOUT restore factory, I don't remember if I've ever had a recovery disk, but if I did, I don't have any him more as they have become lost or misplaced.

    What are my options?

    My biggest fear is I'm at half way through the restoration of the factory and it prompts for a disk and I don't have. I also drive HARD recovery on my laptop on drives C and D.

    (System Restore does not work for me either, I have no restore points or can I create one, so another reason why I need to do a restore of the fctory)

    Kind regards.

    In your situation you should not spend a lot of time speculating on what the people are saying. In the user s manuals document described clearly how it works with the recovery image installation, creating recovery image and what your options are.

    In my opinion the best solution for virus affected system is new and clean install of the OS. It's certainly more radical solution but, I think of easier and faster way to have own OS again. The first step is the backup of the data, if possible and recovery image installation (factory settings).

    Recovery image can be installed on two ways:
    1 as described on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm HARD drive recovery facility
    2 with recovery disk created recovery image installation

    I presume you didn't create this disk so that you can do now is to order on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

    In any case, try it please with option 1 and send feedback.

  • Restoration of the factory without display PC portable HP G72-250US

    I have a broken screen on my laptop that I can't afford to replace, and I need to do a hard factory restore.  I operate my computer through an external display, but without being able to see splash screens, I can't enter the appropriate commands to perform a factory restore.  I can do a restore of the system very well, but I have no point of restoration that are old enough to be viable.  How can I restore to factory with an external display?

    If you can load the deskttop, then you should make the image recovery factory inside the Windows operating system. Until you replace the LCD screen, your options are very limited. You can try to hit the F4 key.

    In research all programs and files box type recovery, and then press the Enter key. Who should call the Recovery Manager.

    Being a little crazy I ignored the guests to "make the backup disks.

    My hard drive still has the recovery partition, but by pressing f11 at the bios screen does nothing

    is there anyway to recover my pc to the original without recovery disks configuration?

    Hello:

    If you are not willing or able to purchase recovery discs, you can reinstall windows 7 using this method, as long as you can read your 25-character windows product key 7:

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

    Thank you!

    Hello!

    First of all, you should check the user manual. There you can find all the details on how to recover a Toshiba laptop.

    In any case, if your laptop came without recovery disk you can create one using the Toshiba recovery disc creator. That's why you need one or two DVDs and then you have factory on a DVD.
    If you created the recovery disk, you can boot from it and follow the instructions on the screen. Windows will be reinstalled, and you get back to factory settings.

    But you can also recovery a Toshiba laptop without recovery disk. So go to the F8 advanced boot menu and choose fix my computer. Now, you can choose the Toshiba Recovery option and follow the instructions on the screen.

    If you have any other questions, you can search a bit in the forum. You will find a sufficient number of threads on the recovery procedure.
    In addition, you must check this document:

  • How to recover the Satellite A100 without recovery disk

    Hi all

    I'm trying to restore my laptop A100 settings * without * a restore CD via pressing a sequence of buttons during startup (which must launch the recovery on the hard drive partition).

    It is really unfortunate, I know it can be done as I did before butI for the life of me forgotten what was this key sequence I can't find the article I stumbled initially on!

    I've scoured the web looking for this key sequence and all the proposed solutions, I fell on do not seem to work.

    Unsuccessful attempts so far:
    -Press and hold 0 power
    -various suggest 'F' keys: F1, F8, F10
    -now the delete key

    Note: I guess it may be worth mentioning that pressing F8 actually take me on-screen "start options advanced windows" but I don't have any recovery options.

    Yeh Yes, I'd * extremely * grateful if someone could point me in the right direction here because it makes me crazy... the fact that I've done this before, it that much worse!

    As I know the A100 series has not been fitted with the recovery of HARD drive partition!
    And so I doubt that any combination of keys will start the partition recovery!

    So you only chance to recover the laptop is to take the recovery disk, then boot from it.
    You can also try to install the disk Microsoft Windows operating system and then could install the drivers of Toshiba on the pilot site of Toshiba!

    See you soon

  • Satellite Pro L450d-12 x help restore to the factory settings

    I want to go back to the complete factory settings (as if windows has been reinstalled)
    There is no repair option in the advanced startup options (are there all the other options)
    If I go into disk management, I can see
    (C)
    recovery_data (D)
    (anonymous) (OEM partition)

    all the these have the status of healthy.

    There recovery.wim in the d drive, and a winpe.wim

    There are a lot of educational software that came on the phone that I do not have the cd. So, I don't want a new installation of windows.

    I tried to do a system repair disc, it upward with could not be created (0 x 80070057) so I'm not able to boot from the cd

    Is it possible to reset to factory settings complete with recovery or partition without a name?

    For future referance that is needed (a? or other? or both?) windows restore disk 7 oem 32-bit pro (version of windows I use) or the pro L450d-12 x recovery disk toshiba satalite?

    Thanks in advance

    > Is it possible to reset to factory settings complete with recovery or partition without a name?

    In General, you have two options:
    Either you try to retrieve the laptop using recovery disk as described here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
    or you will recover the laptop using the Toshiba Recovery disk which you likely has not been created in the past using Toshiba Recovery Media Creator. Right.

    Well, if the recovery of HARD drive does not work (whatever the reason), then you must use the recovery disc. If recover disk has not been created in the past, you can order the CD here:

  • I could do a system backup/restore through the eRecovery without any additional software utility?

    I have an Acer Aspire One 532 H Netbook. I could do a system backup/restore through the eRecovery without any extra utility of Windows 7 to Acer recovery? If I have such software, how can I get it? Because my netbook not came with any utility recovery/program when I bought it. Need to respond as soon as POSSIBLE, my netbook is dying with the longer startup time and more.

    Nice day

    You must back up your data to an external HARD disk, etc. To reload your factory machine, click Start, all programs, acer erecovery management, restoration and completely restore the factory settings.

  • After a restore to the factory settings, where personal files are?

    I recently had a problem on my laptop (gateway) that prevents Windows to boot the system.  I went through the automatic tests on splash screens.  Files were good, the disk check was good, went to a restore point, but still was not able to start.  I got a message that there was no specified "configuration change".  So I chose the option to restore factory settings.  I didn't need a disk to do - it took place without no boot disk required.  There was a message related to the restoration who said that my files could be stored on the hard drive partitioned part.  I couldn't get to my personal files anyway, so I decided to take the chance to do the restore and hope that Windows would save my stuff.  Well, Windows is running, but I can't find my files.  The page of my computer shows 2 hard drives, 'Local' and 'Recovery', but I don't know how to access recovery or if my files are still there.

    Is there a chance that my stuff is still in this machine, or I'm just the GROUND?

    Thanks in advance for any kind souls who can solve the riddle!

    We should never touch except to make recovery disks, failure of hard disk for you to reinstall Vista on a new hard drive.

    Windows does not save your data when you perform a restore to the factory settings.

    Your recovery software factory settings is provided by the gateway.

    It is an Option in their software.

    It is the gateway to this topic information.

  • Question about the use of recovery disks Vista Bus on T500 with XP Pro downgraded

    I searched to see if this has been addressed already and I don't see anything about it. I also looked through the Lenovo support site and could not find any documentation with specific information, that I'm looking. So, if all goes well, the people here will have an idea.

    I have a T500 which was ordered with retired on WinXP Pro. It also came with a set of Vista Business (four discs) recovery disks. I plan to get my machine with Vista business records and down XP Pro, but I had a few questions.

    1. as it currently stands, I guess that the R & R partition that is on the HARD drive at this time restoring a WinXP Pro system if I start and get back with her. Is this correct?

    2. If I boot from the recovery disc Vista Business and use it for the recovery of the system, it creates a new partition 'Factory' R & R which would incorporate a Vista Business install?

    I may be wrong on my assumptions and even after the start of the R & R partition, it is really the recovery disks that I choose to use that would dictate if I found myself with a XP or Vista Bus. System.

    For what it's worth, I created a set of recovery disc R & R for the installation of WinXP Pro in case I need to revert to this version.

    I hope that my question is logical and that someone out there has an answer for me.

    Thanks in advance!

    jskang, welcome to the forum,

    Yes on both counts.

    Removal of all the hard drive recovery disks, create the service partition and then the system installs from the recovery with the flavor of windows partition, so that the discs are.

    It was a good idea to create the XP discs.

  • Cannot restore to the factory settings


    I have the Acer Aspire 7741z laptop. The computer has frequent problems, and I want to restore it defaults. I've already saved important files and had planned to do a full restore to the factory settings, but the eRecovery program does not work for me. It starts the process, says that it needs to restart, check I want to replace the data on the hard drive and restarts. The problem is, it just restarts. No recovery process, no reset factory default. Alt + F10 during boot process does nothing.

    I checked the partitions still exist, and I made no changes to the system since the purchase (about formats, etc.). Of course, I'm no longer under warranty period, it seems getting direct support from Acer is not going to happen.

    If anyone can help? I really want to restore this laptop to its default settings.
