When the laptop boots up, go to Start - All Programs - Accessories - System Tools - System Restore - click on "restore My Computer to ab earlier time" and click on a date you wish to restore from (before your problem occured).

Packard Bell is a computer manufacturer, now owned by Acer. Restoring your computer will erase the hard drive and install a fresh copy of Microsoft Windows. This is beneficial if the Packard Bell is showing its age and running extremely slow or has been hit with an incurable virus infection. Before attempting to restore the system, be sure to back up any data you wish to save.

1.Insert the Windows Setup CD/DVD into the computer's optical drive. The disc will have been included with the Packard Bell computer.

2.Restart the computer with the disc inserted. A black screen will appear when the disc is detected, displaying "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD..." Press any key on the keyboard to launch the Windows installer. The "Install Windows" screen will appear.

3.Click "Next."

4.Select "I accept the license terms" and click "Next."

5.Click "Custom" when asked what type of installation you'd like. The other option is "Upgrade," but in order to restore your Packard Bell system to its factory settings, you must reformat the hard drive.

6.Click "Drive Options" when asked where to install Windows. Select the C: drive and click "Erase." Select the unallocated space after it has been erased, and click "Format." Format the space using the "NTFS" file system.

7.Click "Next" and Windows will begin reinstalling on the Packard Bell's hard drive. The system will reboot when finished and launch into your newly restored Packard Bell.

Making your own bootable cd can be frustrating if you are a novice computer user. Try Windows XP or 98 CD. Select option to repair after booting. Type format driveletter: and enter. Replace driveletter with the letter of the drive which you intend to format like c, d.

Win 98 is the cd that most vendors use to format your harddrive if you are having problems it could be the cd is curpt and needs to be replaced .this mite resolve your problem . at start up of your computer press F8 and a startup menu will apper press last good know and it will restat the computer before any problems started ,but if your harddrive has crashed you will have to reformat the drive because all your info is lost .most restore disk are just for lost operating system and you willnot recover any of your files or programs .soo i recomend safe mode at startup .but you can only use last good known one time after that it will erase all info. Good luck

try press f5 when system is starting up then go safe mode, then try to restore your system to earlier setting with system restore. system restore is located on start/accesories/systemtools/system restore.

put recovery or wincd disk in drive restart when screen says boot with cd click enter follow the steps
if can't boot from cd restart while continuosly pressing f7 startup options will appear high light cd or cd/dvd option
then should boot with cd

Dear Sir ;
Start the computer by putting the cd (RESTORE) in the cd rom.
And follow the instructions. Else format the system (you will loose the data in both the cases.)

Best Regards

You need a floppy windows startup disk.
