[HELP] Recover factory default L505-S5983

I 've just bring my Laptop to VietNam ( I bought it in US). But now I couldn't use the "Fn" key, so I think I uninstall sth wrong ( I uninstall sth I needn't or trial ). As I 've read in user guide, while I power on and hold "0" key, the "TOSHIBA recovery wizard" show up, BUT After choosing the First choice , It 've just said " Initializing..." and give me an ERROR : F3-F100-0005.
I really confused , and have no idea what to do next. Could I bring it to Vietnam service and waranty it ??
PLEASE HELP ME !!! THANKS

I have a new sat L675. I used the recovery once without the disks. Turn your computer off. Turn on and hold the number 0. Select factory default and follow the directions. This a lot easier than using the disks.

Help.New HDD recovery of factory default hanged

My Satellite M645-S110 Hard disk failed.I called Toshiba support and was advised to create a Recovery disk (4dvd) which I did and buy a new HDD. I bought and installed a new HDD (WD5000BPVT) and loaded the Recovery disk. It started the Recovery of Factory Default Software but failed on error in restoring PREINST10.WMM file. I tried this 2 more times and gave the same error. I assume the file was corrupted already when I created the recovery disk. So fortunately I have a set of recovery disc created when I first bought the laptop. This is what I have: 3 Recovery DVDs, 3 System Image dics, 1 System Repair disc, and 1 Windows Recovery Environment disc.
I loaded the no1 Recovery disc and the screen shows <Recovery of Factory Default Software> Preparing. Initiliazing the partition. Please wait... so far I've been waiting for 4hours. Is there another way of recovering? Please help!

L505 freeze at "recovery of factory default software"

I am trying to reset my L505 to factory default settings. The first part went fine. After the first restart it has froze at
"<recovery of factory default software>
preparing
Initializing the partition. Please wait..."
It has been on this screen for going on 40 minutes now with zero change. I am not tech savvy. Is it safe to turn off and see what happens? Is there something else I should try?
Thanks in advance!

Looks like you and I are in the same boat without a paddle. Just different laptop.

Need help resetting the Surface Pro 3 Back to factory Defaults

Hey guys need some help. I have a Surface Pro 3 we were trying to image. No Luck. We have given up for now and tryingto go back to factory defaults. Luckily I made a restore USB before I did anything. Here is the problem:
Somehow we screwd up the UEFI settings and it wont even find the drive. I Keep changing the settings but everytime i go to "Reset Your PC" and repartition drives I get a "Unable to reset your PC. The system Drive cannot be found"
message.
I See no clear way of setting it back to Factory Defaults but here is the Screen BIOS/UEFI screen settings
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) Enabled
(Tried Both No luck)
Secure Boot Control Disabled
(Tried Both No luck)
configure Alternate System Boot Order Network-USB- SSD
(Tried both ways no luck)
Configure External Ports -All ports enabled.

Yes you can. From CLI of Mars:
[pnadmin]$ pnreset -h
Usage: pnreset or pnreset option.
        Default. With no options pnreset restores the appliance to factory
        defaults and purges all configuration and event data (certificate and
        fingerprints stored to validate reporting devices, topology settings,
        archived logs, and the license key information).
    -h Displays this usage information.
    -g Removes the Global Controller data from a Local Controller, leaving
        the Local Controller-specific data and the Global Controller
        communication information untouched. Use this option only after
        a Global Controller crash or recovery. In this case, "pnreset -g"
        must be executed on every Local Controller that was monitored by
        the failed Global Controller.
    -s Removes the Global Controller communication information and resets
        a Local Controller to standalone mode. It removes the Global Controller
        data and connectivity data from the Local Controller as well as the
        default Controller zone information. Use this option only after
        a failed Delete of the Local Controller entry from the Global Controller
        "Local Controller Management" web page.
    -o Resets the tnsnames.ora file to factory default. The tnsnames.ora file
        is required for the Oracle client to connect to the Oracle server.
    -j Resets the web server scheduler depending on Local Controller's
        running mode. A restart of web server is enforced.
[pnadmin]$ pnreset
Reset command will erase all data in database and reboot the machine.
Please type YES if you want to proceed:
Hope this helps.

T500 Recovering to Factory Default.

I had a T500 with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. I ran the Recover system to factory set but it hung at some point during the process. I gave it a hard shutdown and when i restarted, it gave me a balck screen with /windows/system32/winload.exe missing or corrupt. It would not go beyond that point. I did not make the Recovery Disks before attempting this process. Later I installed Windows 7 Professional 64 bit on my system. I can still see the LENOVO_RECOVERY and the SYSTEM_DRV drives and the disk management shows them as Primary and Healthy.
Is it possible to go back to my factory default settings?

Locate and replace the corrupt file. You're jumping the gun doing a reinstall which wipes all your existing apps, configuration, & Data.
Fix it, if necessary get the file off another system. There are usually backups of major files in other areas of the drive.
Boot into safe mode if you're able.
Run SFC /scannow

Check for hardware issues
Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

Hello, I am trying to reregister my Photoshop CS on my laptop, which had to be restored to its original factory defaults. I am unable to re-activate using my product key. I have been able to do so before when I've had to restore my laptop. Please help.

I just restored my laptop to factory defaults due to a slowdown in the computer. Now when I go to reinstall CS and reactivate it, Adobe will not recognize my product key. I am frustrated that I can't speak to someone there like I used to be able to do. Who can help:?

Adobe closed the activation servers for CS and CS2. For owners such as yourself, Adobe has an activation-free version of CS2.
Download the installer and use the serial number next to it. Do not use your old serial number.

Need help accessing the factory default restore disk - Ideapad b5609

I am working on a friends PC. It will not start up in normal mode but will start in safe mode. This PC has Windows 7 64 bit installed.
I don't know whjat he did to this except I used Malwarebytes to remove some malware. After I removed the malware, the PC would not boot in safe mode, but would get stuck at classpnp.sys. I searched for a solution for this and the only thing I could get to work was renaming classpnp.sys to classpnp.old. This allowed the PC to boot in safe mode again but this needs to get fixed.
What I wanted to do was access the factory default restore disk, back it up to USB ( No dvd's) if possible and reinstall a fresh copy of the system. - But I don't even know if this laptop has a factory restore disk, Is there one?
The PC owner says he didn't get a dvd when he bought the PC. This person was born without arms and is not too PC literate. He uses the PC for e-mail and going to porn sites. It's possible he did have a dvd for the PC if it came with one but he just doesn't remember or even knew what it is.
I do see a Backup and Repair app in the start menu / Maintenence folder but It doesn't start from safe mode. One Key Recovery doesn't work either.. I don't know what it does but I was going to look at it to see if it will help fix the PC.
I tried a windows system recovery disk, and it says it cannot fix the problem. My friend told me this PC is over a year old so i assume it's out of warrenty.
Please help, Thank you.

I've already removed the malware with malwarebytes and double checked this with the offline version of Defender. The PC is over a year old.. the owner tells me it's not in warrenty. I didn't want to mess up the hidden recovery partition so i installed a fresh copy of windows 7 to C drive. Since I can now boot into C i will try to install and use OneKey recovery to access and reinstall from the hidden partition.
I understand there is an Enginers version of Onekey Recovery I may have to get if i have problems - it's the version of OKR that the OEM's use to set up the partition in the first place.. from my info anyway..
This is the second time tryiong to fix it from a fresh install on C drive. The first time had a Windows.old folder I wanted to try to reinstall stuff from, but on trying to back that up to a external hard drive via USB, the system crashed and said missing master boot record. A StartUp Repair disk ran 6 times could not fix the problem ( same disk I used to install.. told me it didn't find any problems !
Other odd behavior.. when i was copying the windows.old folder, it didn't tell me i had so many files to go.. always sais it had 0 files left to transfer.
I couldn't get the sound drivers to work even after downloading the right ones from lenovo. I even let device manager try to reinstall the drivers from the Realtek folder in the windows.old folder - those should have worked - and the pc told me that the drivers matches and were up to date - however, the error i get told me there is a problem with the drivers and installation would fail when i tried to install from the downloaded exe.
I have been fixing my own systems for over 20 years, i have never seen a system as screwy as this with a fresh install.

C855-S5190 restored via recovery to factory defaults, ran the Toshiba updater, no Windows Update

I'm desperately searching for help! My elderly father has a C855-S5190 and after trying the update to Windows 8.1 from the store, the laptop doesn't boot all the way up - kept giving various errors. So, he dropped if off for me to try to fix. I couldn't get around it so I did the restore to factory defaults from the restore disks.
After that all finished, I tried the Toshiba service station and it gave me about 7 updates that I installed. After that, I rebooted and then wanted to see about doing the Windows 8.1 update. Went to Windows Store - it says I need to do Windows Updates. I went to search, and now there's no Windows Update showing anywhere. I checked settings, and everything is empty under there as well. What happened??
If someone could tell me how I can possibly do the Windows Updates. I tried this once before trying the service center, the updates either fail, or they install, then it reboots, can't configure them, and gets stuck in a loop of trying to roll things back. That caused me to have to do another restore to factory defaults - I've had to do it 4 times so far, and I just don't want to get stuck in that loop again. So, I need to know what happened to my Windows Update, how do I get it back, and how the heck do I get this thing updated to 8.1?
I booted a Linux live media before starting and was able to recover the files, etc., he had on it to a USB flash drive since I knew doing the restore would wipe that all out.
Any and all input is GREATLE appreciated!!
Dave

Here's the link to the Microsoft page, I had to do this to get Windows Update to run. The Windows 8.1 upgrade would not let me do the upgrade until Windows Update was run, and I kept getting this error. It takes a *long* time for this to straighten out if you've done a factory defaults restore - several reboots, etc..

Recovery of Factory Default Software

I'm trying to re-format my Satellite A100 Model: PSAAKL-00E002 OS: Windows Vista.
Upon starting, there is "BOOTMNGR is missing". I restarted then boot to CD/DVD where the DVD RECOVERY DISK is located.
I choose:
Step1. TOSHIBA RECOVERY WIZARD
Step2. RECOVERY OF FACTORY DEFAULT SOFTWARE (RECOVER TO OUT-OF-BOX-STATE)
Step3. RECOVER TO OUT-OF-BOX-STATE
(SYSTEM RECOVERY OPTIONS ARE INCLUDED)
Then, start loading/copying files. After that, this message appeared:
Cannot read from the source file or disk.
PREINST5.SWM
I chose SKIP. And it flag an ERROR: 10-FC06-002. Before this, I tried again.
What is the solution to this?
Need your help.

Reset Aironet 1231 to factory default

I have a (old) 1231 that I would like to reuse, but no one remembers the password. Anyone know how to recover a password from this model AP or how to reset the device to factory default?
Thanks in advance -
Kristin

Hi Kristin,
Here is a link that will help you reset the ap.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/wireless/ps430/products_password_recovery09186a00800949d0.shtml
There is no way to change the password, without logging into the ap. So you will need to reset it..
