Well for once I have a problem I can't fix not that thats good.My problem is kinda wierd i have a bug or program or virus not letting me restore no further then the 5th of this month.I need to restore to when I first got this labtop or atleast get something to help find the problem so anyone HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, I've tried restoring 2 months back and my computer didn't let me so I'm not sure you can go that far. I really don't know so maybe try virus/anti-spyware/adware scans. I don't know really just a suggestion.
Well really i have found this i am thinking its the main problem i cant restore past a few days back,my starcraft which is brand new still wont work,and when i scan for virus spyware and adware nothing is found.So i need i think its called pchealth where you can restore to the first day if someone can give me that i will be very happy.
is it an xp? if it if then you have to create the restore points, but the comp usually makes a restore point when it is first turned on so i dont know...
When the PC first boots up, it should display (very quickly though, so watch for it) a bunch of shortcuts. If your laptop is fairly new, it should have a factory restore shortcut that restores your laptop to factory default settings. If not, just reformat Windows. If you have neither a default restore or an XP disc, you're out of luck bud.
P.S. As a rule of thumb, I disable System Restore. If my PC gets to the point where it can no longer run correctly, it's time to reformat XP. Also, System Restore can hog up like 5 GB of hard drive space.
well my labtop is about 6 or 7 monts old and no longer has the defualt restore point and since it was a labtop it didnt come with a xp disk so is there a different way to reformat it?
Again, restart it. Almost immediately, it should display a shortcut you need to press to restore your computer to the factory default settings.
