How do you restore your carbon back to factory settings? i want to completely delete everything but i don't have the software...i havent for quite awhile. can you restore it just using the device itself? thanks.

You may be interested in having a look at "How to restore Acer Aspire One Netbook Back to factory settings" on YouTube.

But don't forget to backup your files before you do that.

Have you considered "just" doing the system restore and setting it back to the point of time when everything was working properly?
(In this case the path is " Start - Programs - Accessories - System Tools - System Restore).

It's probably wanting you to insert some restore discs into the cd/dvd drive.

Some manufacturers leave it up to you to create the restore discs when you first purchase the system. Some put it on the hard drive for you, which sounds like is not your case. Don't sweat it because most times the restore discs that users have to create don't work.

Have you tried doing a System Restore? Click Start/Programs/Accessories/System Tools/System Restore. Select a Restore Point (date and time) before you started having problems. Unlike System Recovery that takes you back to factory defaults and deletes everything, System Restore does not delete your data, documents, music, pictures, videos or programs (unless the program was installed after the Restore Point you selected).

If System Restore does not work for you, then you can always Reinstall your Operating System.

Hi Since you did not post the exact problem on setting up your Apple
well the best thing to do is to reset your IPOD and it will be back to original settings
Here's how:
How to Reset an iPod 32GB
Resetting a 32 GB iPod touch is a frightening prospect. The restoration process deletes all data, including applications, music, movies and everything else when the device is restored to factory standard condition. Luckily, iTunes gives you the ability to back up your data before wiping the device clean. This means if your device locks up regularly and is functioning poorly, or you've forgotten your password and you can't get in, you can wipe your iPod


Instructions
1 Launch iTunes on your computer and connect your iPod Touch using the USB cable provided with the device.
2 Select your iPod from the "Devices" list in iTunes and click the "Summary" tab. Click "Restore."
3 Click "Back Up" if you wish to back up your data before wiping the device clean. This is your last chance to save anything that hasn't yet been backed up to your computer. Click "Don't Back Up" if you would rather skip straight to the reset.
4 Click "Restore" and wait while iTunes formats your iPod Touch and reinstalls the factory standard software. Click "OK" when the process is complete.
5 Leave your device connected to the computer while it restarts. When it is again visible in the iTunes device list, the process is complete.

Tips & Warnings
iTunes will automatically launch a setup dialog when your iPod restarts. Click "Restore from the backup of" and select a backup date to restore your data to the device.

If you don't know the pattern, you will need to restore the xoom to factory settings. This will delete everything on the device.
While powering on the device you need to hold the power button and either the up volume or down volume (usually its the up). This will load a menu and select restore factory defaults.

Hi, U can try any restore software to restore the game u deleted. This is possible only if u havent formatted and reinstalled ur operating system

Yes sir! A "Hard Reset" will COMPLETELY reset the all interface back to factory default.

If you use the Blackberry Desktop Software you can easily, back all your data first, then initially "hard reset" the device. After you have performed the necessary steps you can restore all your data.

Hope this helps!

Hello,

Yes. Once we restore the computer is set back to factory settings all the functionalities along with sound and cd/dvd drive will work fine as the software,drivers along with saved data and corrupted files will be deleted and a fresh copy of windows will be installed.

In order to perform a restore back to factory settings follow the steps below:

1. Turn off the computer completely.
2. Make sure the computer is connected to power adapter.
3. Press the power button to turn it back on and at the same time simultaneously keep tapping the ' F11 ' key on the keypad until you see a screen says 'welcome to hp recovery manager ' . you may here few beep sounds during this process. Select ' destructive recovery' option and follow the onscreen instructions to complete the process.

Note: This process may take an hour to complete and make sure to take a back up of your important data on to a cd or dvd as the process completely deletes all the files on the computer.

Thank you.
