ROBERDJJ,
You can restore the system to factory condtions by using Dell PC Restore. To access the program start your computer and TAP the F8 key. Once you have the advanced options on the screen choose the one that reads "Repair Your Computer"and follow the prompts to restore.
Dell Factory Image RestoreThe Dell™ Factory Image Restore tool replaces PC Restore. Access it from the <F8> boot menu.
CAUTION:This utility formats the operating system hard drive partition prior to restoring the factory image. This means data on that partition is deleted and cannot be recovered.
If the customer creates a second partition with a third-party utility, Dell Factory Image Restore is not affected as long as the image partition is not removed.Thank You,
Dell-Jesse1
