What should I do if I want to format my laptop but I don't have the recovery
Hello
I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro P100, about 5 years ago I bought it.
Here is the story, I want to format my laptop but I don't have the recovery or Installer Windows Vista DVD disc, the operating system is pre-installed when I bought it. I know that I can download all components/drivers Toshiba Support page. But how I format without Installer Vista? I have the vista product identification number, so I wonder it works if I format it with vista ungenuine copy, but key ID I have to run it?
Thank you very much. All solutions would be very appreciated.
See you soon

Satellite Pro P100 is old model laptop and I do not remember if this model was delivered with or without recovery DVDs. It turns out that all the models shipped without installation disc recorded on HARD drive data recovery and computer laptop owner is able to install this recovery image using HARD drive recovery facility.
Second option was using recovery DVD creation preinstalled Toshiba recovery disc creator tool. How it works and how to start the HARD drive recovery is described in s manuals that you got with your laptop computer in pdf format. You can also download manuals of this Toshiba support page - http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads.
So what you can do like the first, is to check if can begin installation of HARD drive recovery.
Otherwise, you must install OS using the Microsoft installation disc. As you already know, all of the drivers needed, tools and utilities that you can download at Toshiba supports the page.
Microsoft product key that you saw at the label belongs to the version of the OS pre-installed and cannot e used for activation if you install OS on your own.

Original title: old Dell laptop broke down.
Hello
You can contact Dell and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks and to reinstall the operating system.
They should do this for a small fee.
If this method has not been destroyed by the last re - install, and if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.
The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)
Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.
With a Dell, you press F8 at startup and follow the instructions
http://www.Dell.com/support/troubleshooting/us/en/19/KCS/KcsArticles/ArticleView?docid=266618
The methods above resettlement generally do not require allows you to provide a product key during Installation, the recovery process uses the Installation product key factory to activate automatically during the resettlement process.
See you soon.

I want to format my laptop, but there is a problem.
I want to format my laptop because the drivers failed - I tried all other solutions, but not in vain. The only solution is to format the device, but the problem is - there is no OS disk.
I've already contacted Microsoft about this, and they said I need to contact the manufacturer to provide an operating system, because it is an OEM version.
My laptop is a Dell Inspiron 15R N5510 (early 2011) with the warranty already expired - and because of that, I had trouble navigating around the Support Page, so I decided to go here instead.
Can someone help me with this problem? I just can't use my laptop the way that I've used it before and I really want to do and race with a format of fees. Please help, thanks.

Hello
Here are the different ways to reinstall Vista
Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it
they do it for a nominal cost of $
____________________________________________________________
also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought
you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer
Ask them of the exact key sequence

Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

Yes, it is said that in the title. I want to reinstall them and upgrade. If I buy and download the upgrade windows 7 will there be an option to wipe the hard drive and delete the partitions?
Hi NoahFrank,
No, you will not get an option to erase hard disk or delete partitions during the upgrade of your operating system. However, you will get this option during custom installation.
Formatting your hard drive during a custom installation of Windows 7 permanently erases everything on the partition that you put in the form, including your files, settings and programs.
Please see the following articles for more information:
