[Solved] ACER ASUS A52F Recovery

[GRANDAD]

Quick question please--is it possible to complete a factory reset without a back up disc ? :

Yes this should have been done b4 but its been back and forward to the shop several times.

Hi,

 

I got this off the Asus site:

 

Using the Recovery Partition(on selected models)

1. Press < F9 > during bootup. [ I would be inclined to tap F9 about once per second ]

2. Press [Enter] to select Windows Setup [EMS Enabled].

3. Select the language you want to recover and click Next.

4. Read the ASUS Preload Wizard messages and click Next.

5. Select a partition option and click Next. Partition options:

Recover Windows to first partition only.

This option deletes only the first partition and allows you to keep other partitions, and to create a new system partition as drive "C".

Recover Windows to entire HD.

This option deletes all partitions from your hard disk drive and creates a new system partition as drive "C".

Recover Windows to entire HD with two partitions.

This option deletes all partitions from your hard drive and creates two new partitions "C" (25%) and "D" (75%).

6. Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the recovery process.

 

If you have a recovery partition you are lucky as some were shipped out without.
