System Recovery
Okay I think my laptop is due to be re-formatted back to the default system settings/recovery of Windows Vista Basic. Although I love Windows 7, I am definetly not happy with the performance of it in the last couple months and do miss the ease and feel of Vista and would like to re-start from scratch.
Question is - Once I've backed everything up onto my hdd (personal documents, pictures and mp3s) , do I need to create a recovery disk? Or since there is a recovery partition with my laptop, I can do the restore the factory settings through the Recovery Manager when I press the F11 key upon boot up?
Obviously I have a lot of documents to back up, so I'm hoping by new years eve I can begin the restore the factory settings.
So because I have the recovery partition on my laptop, I can do the recovery to the original system operating system and settings through that upon boot up via F11?
My laptop is a COMPAQ PRESARIO CQ60.
