whoop whoop laptop
 

Mods...plz move this to correct place as not sure where it should go.

I know nothing about computers so gonna be going quiet for a while while i digest a lot of info on laptop use...whoop whoop, i now have one.

Its a windows 7.
Could someone please advise me as to how i can clear it back to factory settings before i start stealthing it.
Have no idea what buttons to press. Im pretty useless.
Thank you :-)

Probably want to re-install Windows 7 from scratch, If you don't know how....you can always have someone that does do it for you.

Do you have important data on the laptop? If so, might want to back it up before install Windows 7 from scratch.

Well done halo you got one, no wonder it seems like confusion central, it's a read up and learn few days for you!

Re: whoop whoop laptop
 

How much will that cost roughly?

Also...nothing to save on it at all. Just want it.completely.clearing.

Thanks MM78....problem is that i know nothing about computers as.only used to phones. And the more i think about it, im wondering whether its worth the hassle lol

Well if you take it to a shop, probably £35-40....now if you have a friend or family member then maybe free....

It's worth it....well for me it is.

Plenty of tutorials also on YouTube

To restore do this :

Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore.

Choose the furtherest one you can..

otherwise the person you have gotten this from should have a restore disc since they come with almost every laptop now days.

Otherwise if all else fails :

Thanks as always Bunneh.
Will crack on with it tonight. Havent even switched it on yet.
Arghhhh not looking forward to this lol :-)

Re: whoop whoop laptop
 

Did it come with install cds/dvds?

Usually one is a restore/reinstall Windows disc. Just put it in, hit a kit when starting to boot from cd, then follow the prompts to reinstall. This will erase any bloatware/spam that manufacturers put on from the factory too!
