Restoring Laptop back to Factory settings with Toshiba supplied Discs?
Hello,
I can't confirm the media recovery is in the proper place on my Toshiba C655D-S5086. I ordered the Discs from Toshiba last week. I have some questions b4 I get started.
1. The only changes/upgrades I made was I have the max RAM of 8gb on my system since day one. Im working with the same HDD of 320gb for now (that will be changed to SDD in the next week or so)
My questions are as follows:
1) I found over the years that their was an Update to the BIOS from what the Factory Install has. Should I update that at anytime while Im restoring the Laptop to Out of the Box status?
2) Do I have to let the Discs store the Media Recovery back on the system being I have the Discs, can't I just forget that partition and use the whole HDD drive of 320gb to gain back space ?
3) Will the system create it's own partitions?j
4) I want only 1 user on the Laptop myself being the Administrator but with a different user name, how do I go about that when the install asks you to setup a user and then later there is still a general Administrator listed as well?
Im not at home so using my families NET access, wired for now. (at home I have a seperate Modem and Router that I own.
I have all kinds of external storage including old HDD's from my desktop WinXP Prof x32 and I use a 3.0 USB hub to connect all my attachments.
Im familiar with Hiren's Boot CD as I had to use it last year to access this laptop for a forgotten PW.
Im shooting from the Hip here on what I should be asking. I have my KEY from the laptop so im good to go unless im forgetting something I should be asking.
LQQK-ing forward for some direction b4 I get started. I do have my celphone to access the group
Thank you . . .
