Windows 10: If I reset my PC using the Remove Everything function, will I have to reconfigure my Bios...

I am thinking about resetting my pc due to multiple problems, and I have been thinking about doing it with the Remove Everything function.

If I do this, will I have to reconfigure my BIOS and re-overclock my CPU. I get that I will still have to install new drivers and new programs, but I am wondering if it will affect this.

My thinking is that if I do the restore Factory Settings, not just remove everything, I think I would have to reconfigure the BIOS and re-overclock the CPU.

Any help appreciated.

I unplugged my PC while resetting it

It's sometimes helpful when you give a list of the PC's components. (CPU, motherboard, etc.) See the "My Computes" button at the lower left of your posts.

Failing that, and assuming that it's a desktop PC, I suggest clearing the CMOS. There is usually a jumper for that, and instructions in the manual. It can aslo be done by removing the CMOS backup battery for a while.

 

Where will I go back to with RESET MY PC

Hi,

I have two Windows 10 pc's. Both with 1607

• 
  Desktop that came from Windows 7.
  
  
• 
  Laptop that I bought with Windows 10 first version (1507).
  
  

A friend of mine told my about the options

• 
  RESET MY PC – Keep my files
  
• 
  RESET MY PC – Remove everything.
  

Is it true that whatever option I choose I will get back Windows 7 on my desktop en Windows 10 (1507) on my laptop?

Thx
