SOURCE: i want to reboot my pc to factory setting

All you need to do is insert the discs and follow the instructions. Though restoring this way adds a lot of un-needed additional software. I prefer to get a real copy of windows and do a fresh install. let me know if you need further assistance.
Thank you,
Lee

SOURCE: I have an emachine model# W3609. It's very slow

Back up all of your photos, documents, folders, files, favorites (bookmarks) and anything else you would like to keep and reinstall after the system recovery. Use a CD, DVD, flash drive, MP3 or external hard drive to store your data temporarily.
Click on the "System Recovery" icon (usually found within the start menu) and begin the process by following the on-screen prompts.
Click on "restore" and note the warnings about losing all of your data. Wait for the computer to complete the process of erasing the hard drive and creating a new partition.
Insert the emachines recovery disk in the CD tray when prompted. This will start the process. There are usually one or two disks involved and the computer will let you know which ones to insert when and will even eject the tray automatically in most cases. You may have to restart at least three times, do not be alarmed by this and keep the disk in until you are prompted otherwise.

Example of Windows Installation Install Windows on the new partition and follow the prompts on your screen. Be sure to choose the largest partition, the one with the most kb available. There are usually two to choose from, as you have deleted the other ones in the steps prior.
Reinstall all of your backed up data and any software programs you are currently using, including the printer and Internet, if needed. Be sure all of your drivers and hardware is working properly, as they have been reinstalled as well during the recovery procedure. OR

  1. Place the recovery disk that came with the eMachines computer into the CD or DVD drive. Restart the computer.

    Click "Next" when the operating system restoration screen appears. Click "Repair Your Computer" and then select "Next."

    Locate your eMachine's current operating system in the list of available operating systems, such as "Windows Vista." Click the appropriate choice and then choose "Next."

    Select "Load Drivers" and wait for the drivers to finish installing. Select "System Restore" and then click "Next."

    Scroll down through the list of available restore points. Select the first restore point if you want to completely revert the computer to factory settings. Select a later restore point if you just want to roll back any changes to your computer to an earlier date.

    Click "Next" and then select "Finish." Click "Yes" and then choose "Restart" to restore the eMachines computer.

How can I restore to the factory setings an emachines t3512 computer with out a recovery cd.

U cannot do so. To restore much of lost speed you need to remove items from your startup menu and completely disengage/uninstall any and all anti virus programs that you are running. kill windows defender and firewall along with auto updates. Then type msconfig in run box, hit enter, select startup, and remove all checkmarks. Reboot and voila, la differance!

How to master reset my emachine desk top ? Its very slow

To do a factory resore and remove all data look at the boot up menue it will tell you to push a key generally F10 or F8 to start factory restore.

However you can fix your slow pc with out doing that by running the command "msconfig".

Go to "run" from the start menu
click run and type msconfig in it

next go to that startup tab and disable all.
next look for sound and video drivers (nvidia, ati)that may need to be on. and turn them on
(Things like adobe reader and ms office can be safely turned off and will still run fine)

now reboot you should have a mutch faster pc.

Emachine 3653 factory restore

You can use the Restore CD that came with the computer. The eMachines restore disk sets your PC back to factory settings with the original operating system and programs that were shipped with the computer. Doing so resolves many problems that can arise from long-term computer use, viruses, or the operating system slowing down.


1. To do a factory restore insert the restore CD then reboot the computer. When prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.


2. Select the option to "Reformat the drive to factory settings."

3. Follow the on-screen instructions to reinstall the operating system and original software that came with your computer.

4. Once the Restore finishes, you can re-install all the programs that you added to the computer as well as restore your files.


Reminder: Reformatting your computer erases all of your installed programs, personal documents, pictures and music. If you have the ability to, back up all of your personal data using a removable flash drive, external hard drive or DVDs before doing a Factory Restore.

Computer running extremely slow

possiblity of a virus effect. try low level formatting on your system and then reinstalling the softwares again. Sometimes several programs installed on your system and been removed improperly also causes the system speed to slow down. You can also try removing their entries using the msconfig command at the run.

High Speed and viruses

Slowness can be caused by viruses.

Run a virus scan and see what comes up.
If there are viruses on the computer, you may want to consider Restoring your computer to factory settings.

But before you do that
Run a virus scan; go to Symantec and run it or download AVG free.

If you decide to restore to factory settings, I will be glad to help you. Understand, you will loose everything on the computer, and you will have to run all your programs again, set up your network connection and email. Very time consuming.
