Windows 8 recovery from a laptop fully cleaned

Just bought my computer for less than a month, and blockages of the system unbearable just kill me. So I decided to reset and reinstall windows 8. I chose completely clean all drives, so that there is nothing that could cause problems left in my laptop. Due to the long time of reset, I did some research on Google and find out who is entirely clean used for resale. Now, I'm worried that I won't be able to use my recovery disks to reinstall windows 8. So my question is, can I use my recovery disks to reinstall windows after a completely clean reset?

Hello

Recovery disks are aligned by a manufacturer or an end user. OEM supplied recovery media is usually comes with most computers to allow the user to reformat the hard drive and reinstall the operating system and preloaded software, it was when it was shipped.

In case you use a retail disk to clean install Windows 8, you will not be able to use the recovery disk to perform all actions by using the recovery disk.

    How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

    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.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Ask them if you can also make 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 way of doing recovery disk/s.

    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.

  • EliteBook 8760w: 8760w with HDTV as second moniter Elitebook, download windows entartrés when switching from the laptop to the TV.

    Graphics card: AMD over-pants M5950

    TV: Insignia NS-32L240A13

    I recently bought a DisplayPort to HDMI Cable to connect my laptop (with the DisplayPort) on my HDTV (with HDMI port). When I have them hooked up and extended my screen on tv, everything went well in the beginning. The operating system showed my office on tv exactly as I expected. However, when I moved one of my windows above (Google Chrome to be precise) from my laptop to the TV, the size of the window to expand. Immediately, I thought it was a problem of resolution so I opened the AMD Catalyst Control Center to check the settings on my TV. He said that the format is standard 1080 p 60 (1920x1080@60Hz), exactly what I thought it should be. Then I noticed that when I go to detect screens and click on identify, the 2 big which is supposed to appear right in the middle of the screen appeared in the lower right of the screen. On this basis, I determined that the problem must be that my graphics card think my tv screen is bigger than it actually is. The first thing I did after has been updated of my Chipset drivers and graphics, but which has no effect. After the search of all the nooks and crannies of the Catalyst Control Center and try to find someone else on the internet with this specific problem, I couldn't find any way to get my windows to the right size and get 2 (from by clicking the button all identify) to appear in the center of the screen where it is supposed to be.

    Some additional notes:

    • In the screen resolution of Microsoft menu in the Control Panel, clicking on identify with my puts selected tv 2 in the Center where it should be, is only to Catalyst Control Center who gets hurt.
    • I tried using a different TV, but he had the same problem.
    • When I connect my laptop to my tv via a VGA cable, everything seems fine and has the correct size. (My VGA cable is only a few feet, so I have to buy a longer in order to to use;) I try to avoid this. And honestly, an HDMI DisplayPort connection / should work better than a VGA connection, anyway.)

    If you have any ideas on how to fix this or if you would like more information, please let me know.

    Thank you for your time.

    Update:

    I tried to get help from my friend with this and at one point during our investigation, we hung his laptop to the TV using a mini-hdmi to hdmi cable. We found that he had the same problem of sizing as me which begs the question, is simply how the hdmi connections are supposed to work? If so, it is very annoying and I expect there to be a setting somewhere to turn it off, but I can't seem to find it.

    Well, I thought that the problem, and honestly I'm pretty embarrassed that I didn't understand it sooner. In the resolution of the screen control panel screen there is a link written as 'Make text and other items more or less '. That takes you to a page that has a setting for the size of all the items on the desktop with 3 smaller averages, options and more. Normally, I have this game to kids, but for some reason my DisplayPort output was the default setting of the support. I changed it to smaller and now everything looks the way I expect to. Hooray!
