I would like to restore to factory conditions but do not have a restore disk. Can I do this manually without a disk?

1. Shut down the computer.
2. Press the Novo button. From the Novo button menu, select the Lenovo OneKey Recovery system and press Enter.

Many laptops have a hidden partition with everything needed to restor the computer. Some people burn it to disk and then delete it to make space. Some laptops come with a restore disk. If you have a hidden partition look for start/all programs/Toshiba see if there is a restore option. If not there could be an option to restore from bootup. If so try hitting esc or f1 or f2 when rebooting.

Turn on the computer.

When the Dell splash screen appears during the computer startup process, press and hold <Ctrl> and then press <F11>. Then, release both keys at the same time.

In the Dell PC Restore by Symantec window, click Restore. Alternatively, press <Tab> to highlight Restore, and then press <Enter>.

Cheers and please vote

ask emachines for duplicate dvds of your startup disks.
your os is Genuine Windows Vista® Home Basic
any copy of that would work, but you wouldn't have the cyberlink or other software

before doing that
you may first try checking for viruses or startup programs
and then reinstalling any game software

maybe your sims is broken. verify that it works on another machine

The disc is critical when you want to go back to factory settings, check out www.ebay.com there are sellers that provide a lot of different restore discs, you might get lucky. The other option is check www.gateway.com see if the have the supporting disc.

Only way to do this would be to do a "system restore" without disks you can only hope you have restore points setup... run system restore from control panel and find out..

if no restore points contact dell for a restore disk.. remember the system restore without disks will not remove viruses or other harmful files..

You need restore disks or an opperating system to restore any computer to factory condition. Simply put the disk 1 in your dvd/cd drive and go from there. It usually takes 45-60 minutes to do this.

IF you don't have restore disks you can make them on your system (if its running) or you can call the manufacturer and they will send you them for a small fee.
