Tried to reset to factory settings, computer, not to stay long enough to make it work.

I have a HP Pavilion dv4 laptop and wanted to completely restore my laptop to factory settings because I had a mess on this subject and did not know what files to remove. So as a first step, it would not read disks, it would be closed permanently. Left alone for an hour and tried again and he finally crossed and it restarted itself. I turned it back on and it would be off. Wait another hour and the recovery began when I tried again, he read the files and said he was preparing the office when it stops again. Stayed at this since this morning and it's really frustrating, any idea what is happening?

He also says to reinstall windows, I guess since it turns off when she says do not turn off the computer and that's one of the reasons spoil it? I've never had a problem with my laptop turn off like that before I did the restore to the factory settings. Also it is connected, so not sure what is happening.

Didn't need to. I placed my laptop directly into the path of a supply fan and guess what? It worked. Guess I reinstall it it was overheat too much so he kept closing. Since my computer laptop days now.

    Hello

    I tried upgrading my installation of Windows 7 Professional to Windows 7 ultimate. I ended up format the partition and now Windows will not load and the installation hangs right on 0%. I don't have a disc of recovery for this laptop, is it possible to access the recovery partition on this laptp to reset to factory settings or a restore CD I can order and it will work?

    The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite Pro L450D - 12 X

    Hey Buddy,

    If you have already formatted the Windows partition, you are not able to start the recovery of HARD drive more. Also there is no possibility to access the recovery files and start them, so the pre-installed operating system is necessary.

    The only option you have is Toshiba recovery disc. Only with this drive, you can restore the original settings of the box but I m wondering why you have n t a. It s mentioned in the user manual you have to create yourself

    In any case, just order a disc here and be happy ;)

  • no internet connection after resetting to factory settings

    I have a laptop HP HPG71-449WM.  He has screwed up and wouldn't let me not restore to an earlier point at all so I reset to factory settings.  I don't have a return to the top because there was nothing that I wanted to save.  I can't connect to the internet now, wireless or by connecting an ethernet cable.   It gets an error while going through the initial report put in place where you set your password for the pc, time, etc.  When he arrived at the place to connect to the internet, it gets an error, freezing.  I turn it off and turn it on and it just loads as a normal computer, but impossible to connect to the internet no matter what.  I have reset the settings to factory on 5 times in the last 3 days and get the same problem each time.  I have no recovery disk or whatever it is.

  • Pavilion 15-ab043sa: cannot reset to factory settings after the upgrade computer laptop brand new 10 Windows

    I bought 2 new laptops, they seem to be special models not listed is not in the HP support site, purchased from Currys PC World in the United Kingdom.

    First HP Pavilion 15-ab045sa laptop computer 15.6 "-red, upgraded to windows 10 perfectly well and I made a backup of the system while I studied the creation of recovery media (this info must be printed with the laptop in the box, rather than letting the user have to find BTW)."

    The other a HP Pavilion 15-ab043sa laptop computer 15.6 "-blue, for my parents, has turned into a total disaster."

    The two models are the same, except that the first is red and the other is blue, that's why they have different product numbers?

    I was now in a position where the recovery on the D: drive partition is not a factory reset.

    I did not even recovery disks as having the first one to go smoothly, I thought the same thing would happen on the second laptop and I got the recovery disc then.   I tried to create a USB stick recovery, but I had no one who can save the system settings - need at least 32 GB free.

    This occurred as first I started the laptop, made of windows, MS Office 365 updates, added then waiting 2 days for windows 10 to arrive.  When it came it installed fine and then I added a printer driver for an HP printer and made some configurations of the operating system.  At the next reboot showed something was wrong as the boot took over 7 minutes.  As the synaptics app was referenced twice in the tab start Task Manager also had strange things in the system.  Rather than go back to a previous system restore point that I attempted to identify what was wrong and uninstalled all without success.  I then had the opportunity to go back to 8.1 for Windows or "reset the PC.  Not a lot of explanation on delivery to zero and certainly no warning options that the D: partition was no longer valid.  Windows options were "in my face" so I don't think watching HP recovery.  So I chose to run from Control Panel 'Reset the PC and keep the files'.  So, indeed, I now have a clean install of Windows 10 but have lost all applications that were on the factory orginal building.  I see no way to re - install all of these programs and find the license keys.  I have more HP recovery at all.

    So I have no way to put the blue doesn't return to the factory settings.

    Advice please, I want a laptop blue, the same as the red, i.e. Windows 10 with all applications that have come to the factory as well as the correct printer drivers and a time of less than 30 seconds of starting.

    You are not sure if there is anything I can copy from red to blue to get it going again?

    Any help gratefully appreciated, thank you

    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.

  • My computer has TWICE to reset to factory settings, losing ALL my data and installs

    I bought a new Dell in December with 7 from Microsoft. Three weeks later, when I opened it one morning he looked exactly as it did when I was first handed it - none of my data, any of my installs, none of my settings. Luckily I had everything on a hard drive so I started from scratch (mostly irritated that I had to use another installation on Microsoft Word). Today I opened only to discover that he has rrediscovered the settings that it had lost the first time, about a month ago. This means that I've lost all the extra data / installs that I had done in the meantime. I don't know if its something Im doing or if it's something I can expect to continue to occur. I don't think not that I would have so vigilant with backup that I do EVERY day to keep things.

    Some of the data I lost this time was really important, like the bookmarks on my Web page. Although at least this isn't a restore to the factory settings, its almost MORE absurd that he returned to what it was before he wiped away the first time.

    Please help as I am very scared of what happens - twice.
