how do you reformat a vaio laptop?

Question

Could you walk me through the steps to reformat a vaio laptop?

Answer 1

You don't say what model Vaio you have, but the easiest thing to try first is to press F10 when the Sony boot screen appears when you turn on the laptop. If the recovery partition is still intact, you will be able to restore your Vaio back to factory default. Of course, anything that you currently have on the laptop will be lost.

Answer 2

I gotta ask why you would want to do this? Most people don't understand that this is a long time-consuming process and you wind up losing lots of stuff you didn't realize, like settings.

I think there's an epidemic going around - everyone wants to "wipe and reload" like it's playing on MySpace or something.

The only time you need to reformat and reinstall is if you have unrecoverable corruption of the operating system. Then you need the original disks that came with the computer for starter

Answer 3

take a abode abode windows 7 (or any OS version), then located the disc into your computer and reboot into your DVDcontinual, from there you could reformat then reinstall abode abode windows on your computer
