REINSTALING WITHOUT ANY DISKS OR ANY THING ELSE BUT A HARDDRIVE AND A
(SOMEWHAT) WORKING COMPUTER
Printing this is recomended as you will have to navigate away from it


For those of you who need the Dvd or CD to reinstale the operating system
but you cant wait you need your system now or you dont want to do anything
with disks for whatever resone I have brought this info to you:

My Computer (Running Windows Vista) It came with a manual...I've Read this
manual and I found Something Intresting you Might want to know. There is a
Copy of your operating System hidden away on your hard drive. Here Are the
Steps to Enable this secrect Hard Drive section to reinstale Windows Vista
Without a CD:
1. Turn on or Restart Your Computer, Then Press F8 on your keyboard
repeatedly while your Computer is starting. When the Advance Boot Options
screen appears, click Repair Your Computer, then Click Next

2. Pick your country and Keyboard layout

3. Log on then Click Next

4. On the Sytem Recovery Options screen, click Recovery manager (The last
option). The System Recovery Wizard opens.

5. Follow the on-screen instructions

6. (Very Important) Click One of the System Recovery Options when prompted:

*Option 1: Recovery with automatic Data Back-up (This is recommened)- This
Moves the Contents of the Hard Drive to the C:\My Backup Folder and Installs
a new copy of Windows. This Option saves existing Data files, but all
programs must be reinstalled and the program settings reconfigured. you need
at LEAST 4GB of Hard Drive space to do this

*Option 2: Full Factory recovery- Reformats and restores the system softwere
as it was when you pirchased your Computer. This Process Deletes your data
files, so they must be saved on an external disk prior to reformatting

7. Click Next, then Click yes. Recovery Starts.

8. When Recovery is complete, click Finish. Your Computer will restart and
Windows will finish its Setup and Installation.

Notes: Your Computer will have all he files from when it was shipped from
the factory. You will need to download Windows Updates and Anti-Virus updates
to bring your computer up to date.
