XXXPco,

To restore the Inspiron M5030 to factory conditions you can start the computer and tap the F8 key. Once you have the Advanced Option on the screen choose the one that reads "Repair Your Computer" and follow the prompts to restore the system. Below is information on restoring.

How to Restore or Reinstall Microsoft Windows on a Dell Computer

Dell Factory Image Restore

The 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,
