I cannot do a 'Windows 7' restore as I do not have a disk because my computer came with Windows 7 pre-installed.
So if anyone has managed to restore their computer, please explain how I would do this.
Also the whole "Press F8 on startup" doesn't work, it shows no option to press F8, and when I do, nothing happens.
F2 shows Registry, and F12 shows Boot Menu.
Most PC's don't come with a CD anymore.
Like mine it has a build in OS restore program. Does your PC have that all?
If not, pirate Windows 7, mount it onto a USB or CD and boot from that. I believe you can repair/reinstall Windows 7 from that.
They're programs out there to keep your serial key for Windows 7. A quick Google search will get you that.
