• Satellite A200-17O - how to restore Windows to the factory settings?

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A200-17O. I want to restore Windows Vista to factory settings, I did not need to backup all the files. I don't have the product recovery CD. When I press F8 and click on the "Repair" option, it will give me all the options, but when I click on the option to completely recover the system (the one on the bottom), it will simply open a window telling me to back up my data, then theres a button 'OK', and when I click that, the window will simply close and return to the menu options. All I want is to return Vista to factory settings.

  Thank you for your help.

  Hello

  Yes, normally you can restore your computer laptop initial configuration using disk HARD recovery option. Therefore, you must follow the instructions here:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD1303440001R01.htm

  If it doesn't work, you need to use the Toshiba recovery disc. If your computer laptop didn t come with such a recovery disk you create yourself using recovery preinstalled creator tool. This is mentioned in your user manual, have you checked it?

  Therefore, you need a few blank DVDs. I recommend the DVD-R from Verbatim or TDK. Many users here have a good experience with these brands.

  If you have any other questions, just after again! ;)

  Another possibility is to wait until Windows XP is running and click Start > all programs > Tools HP > HP PC System Recovery .

• Repeated unsuccessful attempts to reset the desktop computer (Windows Vista) to factory settings

  I found that I have a virus on my pc. I tried to use recovery tools in the OS partition to reset the computer to factory settings. It keeps giving me an error: access to \Tools\dp.sc was denied, I tried to run as administrator, but still will not work. I tried once again in safe mode, it always gives me an error, but without the sentence or an error number. It just says ERROR. Is there another way to try a factory reset? I have the DVD of reinstalling OS to Vista 32 BIT SP1, but my computer has been upgraded with SP2. Any suggestions?

• NL014UC: Restore Windows xp to factory settings

  So, I own a compaq refurbished hp (dc5800 Compact) and after all these years of uninstalling programs instaliing and other to the point that its slow ignition, loading ect...

  Now, what I want to do is just restore it too its original condition when I bought it (don't care about information loss).

  the problem is that I don't find a way to restore (excluding the microsoft system restore)

  No f11 or f8 to press key on startup to start the process or at the top.

  In addition, no hp tool

  Being a refurbished pc it came with a cd to install windows if...

  Anyway my question is are at - it means more to rehabilitate the factory?

  Thank you

  Keep track of your Windows license key.

  Usually repeatedly touch the key F11 at startup you'd bring to the Recovery Manager but the fact that it is a system refurbished, it can not be there.

  The installation CD you won't have you reinstall the system?  Would probably not be factory HP restore disc but a disc than anyone else renovated the computer does.

  If you live in the USA/Canada, call HP at this number 1-800-334-5144 and see if you can still get a set of recovery disks.  Otherwise the site worldwide: http://welcome.hp.com/country/w1/en/support.html

  I know, they have to computer surgeons if HP has no more:

• Need to restore Windows 7 to factory settings. No disc and it is a machine made to order

  So no, there is not a partition already installed and I apparently failed to make a backup when I first put this machine a few years ago. Need to do a factory reset for various reasons.

  If the PC manufacturer has not prepared something when the machine was new so there is no such thing as a 'factory reset '.

  You need to reinstall everything from scratch.

  Hi Jason,

  Since you did a factory restore, you must get in touch with the manufacturer of the computer, for assistance in the recovery, files.

  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).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• Z220 CMT Workstation: restore the system to factory settings.

  Model: Hp Z220 CMT Workstation
  OS: Windows 7 Professional
  
  I'm trying to restore my computer to factory settings. I pressed ESC several times at the start to the top of the computer. Select the system restore, but the computer just hoot to Windows form. I can not connect to windows, because as some error loading windows.
  
  Is there another way for me to restore the system to factory with a clean Windows 7?

  > is there a way for me to get the recovery disk?

  Two ways:

  1. in Windows system work, running the same version (32-bit? 64-bit?), you can burn a disc of "recovery."

  2. find a friend with a 'detail' in the Windows 7 operating system DVD (remember this is the same 32-bit or 64-bit, your system) and borrow the DVD of him/her, or get him or her to burn a copy of it.

• Restore your PC to factory settings

  I would like to restore my HP slimline to destop factory settings. It works on Windows 7 and got a recovery partition. I also got two additional partitions (partitions of data). My question is: if I restore the computer to factory settings will be my deleted data partitions?

  Thank you

  Yes, but you cannot use the recovery partition.

  Here's how:

  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.

  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.
