How To Restore To Factory Settings?
I own a Compaq NC6120 notebook. SN CNU53921YF. I have had a series of issues with this notebook. A year ago I downloaded a virus. I removed it....so I thought using AVG & Malware Bites. However, even after removal it still not acting the way it should. System Restore does not work. The virus took over the Restore points. I want to reset the notebook to it's factory settings. ( I KNOW I'LL LOSE EVERYTHING. BUT I'M ALRIGHT WITH THAT AT THIS POINT.) I have done the "F10" button & tried to reset the defaults from there, but when the notebook reboots, nothing has changed. HOw can I reset my notebook to it's factory settings without a recovery disc? I cannot locate a recovery disc anywhere!
