Satellite A500 - how to get back to factory settings?

Hello

I just bought a new laptop Satllite A500-1GL (like 3 weeks ago)
It came with Windows 7 Home Premium.

I have installed many programs/apps/games... and it became too slow,
I tried to use defragging, scandisk, I uninstalled software millions... but it is still very slow, screen sometimes flashes, just a format, but I can't do it! : s

Anywayz!

Now I want marker it and return to the default state of factury.

I found this link somewhere in the forum
http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm
I tried to follow the steps, and here is what happened:

I tried to restart the laptop, press F8, enter the option "Repair Windows",
I chose the language, came to the Passover of the administrator,
Now, when I reached step 4, I did not have the "Toshiba HDD Recovery" option.. ! ?

So, what should I do now? :/ :s
My laptop gets slower and slower,

PS: I have a (13 GB) drive labeled as data recovery, and there "HDD Recovery" folder...!
P.s2: I tried Option 3 (Windows complete PC Restore) and tried to browse blade H (the one that includes HARD drive recovery files), but it did not work too...

> I tried to restart the laptop, press F8, enter the option "Repair Windows".
You must press F8 and choose repair MY computer!
You have chosen repair Windows

The repair station is the first option in the list!

However, you must create the recovery disk Toshiba using the tool preinstalled called creator of Toshiba Recovery disk!
This should be done at first before doing anything else on this laptop!

  • How can I get my computer back to factory settings?

    my computer is slow and I want to restore it back to factory settings, so this has nothing about it except the important things, like when you get everything first... does anyone know how to do this?

    Note that if you save all the important things, it will be lost after the reset.

    After the reset, you should get all the updates from Windows Update EXCEPT for hardware devices. Then, you install a good antivirus. ONLY AFTER you have done this, if you replace the stuff of backups or install anything else.

    Your laptop is equipped with a recovery instead of disk partition

    .

    This is how the recovery partition is available for the most popular brands

    For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

    For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

    For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

    For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

    You may need to try several times to get everything above to work. If after several attempts, you have no chance, or the machine indicates that there is no recovery partition, your only option is to contact the computer manufacturer and ask for the model recovery discs...

  • Satellite A300-15 has back to factory settings

    Hello!

    I have an old Satellite A300-15 and I want to go back to factory settings after almost seven years of never format the hard drive.

    I did a little research on this 'how... "but I still don't know if the laptop comes with a windows recovery or not.

    I have another laptop with a score of "windows recovery", but in my toshiba, the only thing I see is a recovery of HARD drive file in my E: partition. I don't really know if that helps the reinstallation of windows.

    So if I reset the laptop with the method 'laptop computer Tower, hold the blah blah 0 button"it completely format my C: and need to reinstall windows or not?

    (Running Windows Vista)

    How it works with the recovery image installation, you can read on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R02.htm

    Start your laptop with F8 and choose the option to repair your computer. Follow the instructions on the screen and you will be able to install the original recovery image.

    Installation of recovery described called the installation of HARD drive recovery. With other words, saved on the HARD disk in the folder HDDRecovery recovery image will be reinstalled on the C partition only and the second partition of HARD drive will not be deleted or formatted.

    In my opinion, that you create the recovery using disc (DVD) preinstalled creator Toshiba recovery disc. You can use created bootable disks to install original Vista. When you use discs, the whole HARD disk will be deleted, formatted, new partitions created and installed Vista end.

    If you have any other questions you are welcome.

    I have a mini hp 10 inch.  I want to get back to factory conditions or at least start in safe mode.  Help, please

    Hi, Patty Young. Need you to restore your computer settings or the recovery disk or your computer must have a recovery partition. To start in safe mode, you simply press the F8 key when you see the initial screen and then choose Startup mode in the Advanced menu options. I honestly recommend however, that can you tell me what your question is so that we can try to resolve without the need of recovery.

    Att/yahoo updated my email, which suggests to select Firefox as the browser, but how to get back the taskbar?

    Hi, you are missing the taskbar Windows, which usually appears at the bottom of the screen? Firefox normally does not block the taskbar if you do not use the mode full-screen. To check if you are using full-screen, you can use the F11 key that toggles between full screen and normal mode.

    Or if you meant the menu bar (File, Edit, View), you have two options:

    (1) display on request: press the ALT key to press F10 to display bar temporarily

    (2) time full display: you can use one of the following methods to view the list of the toolbar, and then select menu bar it:
