Laptop System Recovery

How do I start the system recovery on a Gateway NEW90 laptop? I want to reboot it to factory settings. Thanks.

 

Laptop System Recovery

when you turn your laptop on press F2 or F10 one of those should take you to a system restore

EDIT: it may also be F8 or the delete key. i just did this a couple day ago to a dell and i know its one of those.

EDIT2: Here you go press the Alt and F10
How can I restore my computer with the backup discs I created?



With user created backups you are able to restore your computer to the factory default settings. If backup discs were created instead of factory restore discs, these can be used instead and will restore the system to a user backup point.

Ensure that the computer is completely shutdown, then turn on the computer.
When the Gateway splash screen appears, tap the Alt and F10 keys simultaneously. A screen stating "Starting Gateway eRecovery" should appear.
From the recovery options, choose Restore system from CD/DVD.
Insert either the first Recovery or Backup disc that you created.
From the on-screen options, choose a backup.
Click OK and the installation will begin.
Change the disc as necessary when prompted.

 

Laptop will not boot at all, not even from DVD


Hi, this is read from an HP forum, not ASUS- I've no idea if it applies.. but you can try it!
Here are the steps:

1. Turn off the computer.
2. Hold down the windows key + b and power on the laptop without letting go.
3. Here's the magic: while holding down windows key + b, then press F2.
4. The laptop will enter BIOS recovery mode, and you should be all set from there.
