How do I Reset Laptop to Factory?

Even more description if needed for the laptop I have is that it has Intel i5 core processor.  Ok, my problemo here is that I don't exactly know how to reset my laptop to factory. I posted a question to the Microsoft forums about this but they said to come here to post since I had to HP laptop. But, (this info helped the helpers figure out about my problem in the Microaoft forums) somehow I don't have the folder or program, recovery manager, and I lost my manual. Yeah thats it thanks for checking I won't be up till tommorow so thats when I'll probably reply.

Hello HarbourStables,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone 5s.  I would be concerned too if my iPhone was stuck in recovery mode and not recognized in iTunes so that you can restore it.
I recommend the following article for the issue you described and specifically this step:
5. Use iTunes to restore your device.
If you don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.

    Go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • We have a 3rd generation iPod nano which we have forgotten the password to.  How do I reset it to factory settings so I can sync it with our iMac and iTunes?

    How do I reset our iPod nano 3rd generation to factory specs so we can sync it to our iMac and iTunes?  We have forgotten the password and have given up on the guessing game after too many attempts.  I have been through the support, tried trouble shooting, but it doesn't seem to sink in...  What is the "simple" way to get our nano back for a new set up?

    I should add that I have tried the online on how to restore but it says it has to be through iTunes and iTunes doesn't even recognize the iPod at this point. The iPod is an iPod 2 classic I believe.

  • Wifi and Bluetooth disappeared after reset laptop to Factory settings

    After reset my PC to factory settings realized that the wireless and bluetooth were not working. The problem is not with my home network, since all other devices are working great The F12 (wi-fi)  hot key is orange and does not turn on. When button is hit just changes to airplane mode on/off. There are no option of wireless devices or icons or whatever to access this. Wireless and bluetooth just disapeared. At the device manager, the only driver found in Device Manager\Network Adapters is Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller. Nothing about wireless. Everything is gone. Accessed the HP support and installed several different network drivers, but nothing happens. Tried to do another factory reset, problem persisted. Exactly same occuring to Bluetooth. They always worked fine, till the factory reset. Don't now what else to do, some say that may be a hardware malfunction, but I think it is weird, always worked great and it changed immediatly after the factory reset. In my opinion seems more like a software than a hardware issue, caused by the reset. Could anyone give a help with that? Tks a lot 

    Hi , Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues, with help from the community!
    I came across your post about the Notebook, and wanted to assist you! I have looked into your issue about your HP ENVY TouchSmart 15 Notebook and Wifi problems. Here is a link to the troubleshooting the Wireless connection. Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system it has built in Wireless troubleshooting assistance. It will show you how to make sure the Wireless is on. Here is a document on Airplane mode. If Airplane mode is on you cannot use your WiFi or Bluetooth, so Airplane mode should off and no Ethernet cable connected for the Wireless troubleshooting. I hope this helps you connect. Thanks.

    Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone.

  • How can i reset back to factory

    how can i get my macbook pro back to factory settings without the disc

    Hi s,
    You could manually secure erase every setting and everything you ever put on it, then secure erase all free space, but that would take forever and it would be easy to miss things. Depending on which OS your MBP shipped with, I'd buy a $29 Snow Leopard disc, erase and zero from there, then install SL.

  • I have a P2035 that is stuck on MANUAL for IP configuration, how can I reset this to factory default

    The ip address is set to 0.0.0.0 and I cannot connect to it at all to get to the webportal to reset or change, is there any way to reset to factory default?

    Our process would involve the original owner taking or shipping the phone to a technician to be unlocked. However, since it is out of the warranty period, there may be a cost depending on your location. Call us: http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/corporate/common/contact/phonelist
    Others may suggest other options, but of course, we would not reccomend these.

    I think that you have to have Win 8 bootable to get into the recovery program.  I believe that if you can find an exactly identical computer you can make recovery media on it or you can buy it from Toshiba.
