Satellite A300 - After Windows 7 installation how to get factory sate back?

Question

I have recently installed windows 7 on my laptop and now I want to remove them and restore my computer to its factory state.
When I enter the "advanced boot menu" I select "repair my computer", then there is a menu from which I select "repair...something". Then it shows up a message which says that there is nothing wrong with my computer and that's where all end.
Any ideas???
Thank you

Hi
Did you not create the Toshiba recovery disk as yet?
I think you didnt read the user manual because there you can also find a lot of informations about this.
The Toshiba recovery disk you can burn using the Toshiba recovery disk creator. This tool is preinstalled on every Toshiba notebook but on another OS like Windows 7 its not possible.
Normally after the first start when you bought the notebook you get the following message (recovery reminder):
+Important INFORMATION+
+your system is equipped with hard disk recovery system. if you need to repair+
+your computer by restoring it to original factory state, you can do it directly+
+from harddisk (press F8 when you boot your computer, choose "Repair your computer"+
+and follow the menue instructions) or create a bootable Recovery Disc Medium for this purpose.+
+Toshiba recommends you to create Recovery Disc Medium using the "Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator" to ensure+
+hat you are able to restore your computer to the original factory installed state, even if your computer+
+gets seriously damaged+
However, now its too late and you have to order a new recovery disk from Toshiba directly:
