View 5 RepliesI have an HP laptop (model HP G56 Notebook PC) that I am having a manner of problems with. There's definitely something wrong with it, but virus scanners are not picking it up.So I've decided to just reformat it and start from scratch (I've been planning on doing it for a while anyway). The problem is, the "Restore to factory settings" doesn't work properly. I go through the steps, backup etc then it says I need to restart for the process to start (which has worked fine before). The problem is that when the system restarts, the computer just sits at a black screen. Nothing happens, I've tried leaving it for ages but eventually I'm left with no choice but to switch the powerbutton off and then it starts up as normal.I've also tried going directly from the boot-up screen and selecting system restore that way, but again it just takes me to a blank screen until I hit the power button. It's like it's impossible for me to reset the computer.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy hard drive crashed recently. I'm using an HP notebook, I'm not entirely sure what the model is and all that, I'm not too computer savvy. Anyway, my hard drive crashed today, I'm not sure why. My computer fails every start-up test and will not load any diagnostics or restore menus. Is there a way I can make my computer get to the Windows restore menu to completely reset my laptop?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy son put my 4G aircard from my Apple into the USB port in his Acer. It wouldn't work, so he just pulled it out without going through the eject function. Now when his Acer is turned on it won't sign on at all. It goes to a black and white screed for Windows Boot Manager and says it is an error cause by unplugging the USB drive while the device was in use. If you push enter, it goes to the Windows Error Recovery black & white screen. No matter what you do, it just goes back & forth between those two screens. I can't even get to a Windows screen to to any recovery program.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to fix a Toshiba laptop that failed during a factory restore by the customer and would not complete the restore. I have since tested the ram and hard drive and they are ok. I replaced the faulty cd drive too. The factory restore worked this time, but I keep getting a blue screen during the 'Checking System Performance' stage of the recovery. Windows is installed and all drivers are in as I can see in safe mode but if I try to boot to normal Windows I get the BSOD boot loop and don't know how to bypass it. I have attached a html file of the crash reports from BlueScreenView. The problem appears to be with the ATI display driver, but I am not sure how to update it in safe mode.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently had a virus/malware attack on my system, removed it, but the system is damaged (Security center & updates cant be started etc) . I want to restore the comp using the acer feature "restore to factory settings". But I wonder, must I have a Win7-installation CD after the restore?? Because the computer came with preinstalled Windows 7 when I bought it. Keep in mind that it's a factory settings restore not a complete format c (i think) I've done a backup on hardrive "D" of my current system in case of anything going wrong. If a Cd is required, could you tell me another way to format the comp without buying the CD? My security center is damaged, so restore to point doesnt work either. If you got any solutions to how to start security center except setting it to "automatic" in services.msc (Since this doesnt work), please post 'em.

It doesn't look my computer is loading anything either and it doesn't make sounds as of it were.
View 5 Replies View RelatedFor a variety of reasons, I want to do a clean install on my laptop, which is a Dell Studio XPS with Windows 7. I don't have any Windows disks (it's 2 years old and I'm fairly sure I wasn't provided any), so I'm trying to do it through advanced boot options. When I hit F8 during startup and select repair, I am shown the screen "Windows is loading files..." and then the system starts as usual, rather than giving me options for a fresh install, which the description (and every set of instructions I've seen) would suggest.
View 13 Replies View RelatedSo im looking to restore my PC to its factory settings so i saw from a video that says all i have to do is go to, Control panel->System and security->Backup And Restore->Recover system settings or your computer->Advanced recovery methods->Reinstall Windows (requires Winodows installation disc) so yeah, will this work? im pretty sure the disc i have that came with my comp is the right disc, on the disc it says"microsoft windows 7 Reinstallation DVD", Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
let me know if this is the right disc and if this is the right way to reset to factory settings that would be super awesome!!!!
