    So ive been teying to reset my pc back to factory so i can reinstall everything and just clean up my pc. Everytime i click erase everything it says could not find tge recovery environment i tried a few different fixes using command prompt and creating a new recovery drive. When i try to create a new recovery drive it says some requires files are missing etc.. losing hope that my pc can be saved any advice would be greatedit: tried calling Microsoft support but the representative hung up on me twice and then stopped accepting my calls.

    How to factory reset Cisco 1700 Router

    Hopefully I can help you here....its a very common thing to happen.


    First, I take it you dont know the passwords for console access or telnet/ssh?

    I will assume that these devices belong to you.

    step 1. Plug a cisco console cable into a serial port on your pc
    step 2. Plug other end into Cisco console port
    step 3. Using hyperterm or putty or similar connect to the serial port
    step 4. boot router, and make sure you clearly can see the output (this confirms you have good serial comms)
    step 5. if this fails, adjust the comm port settings (9600, 8,1,n are the default)
    step 6. now you have to do the only hard part...send the break command:

    Break command list: Break Commands

    Go down the list and match your OS and SW and try the sequence suggested.

    If this fails several times do what I do: Install putty (free) and then to send a break so you can get into rommom just hit "ctrl-a b".
