    Need Help Resetting My Laptop

    Hay guys. I'm trying to reset my toshiba a15-127 to the factory settings so i can give it to my daughter. It won't connect to the internet and there is nothing on there i need to save. Problem is i don't have the recovery disc and the power+0 trick is not working. Any suggestions?

    On startup press F12, F2, or F10 depending on the manufacturer. Should bring you to a windows menu for functions. Click restore to factory settings. Tada.

      I don't even own this car anymore, but I'm too lazy to change the picture.

        Even better, put in the original windows install CD, format the hard drive and re-install. Computer will be like new.

          Tried F12 andF2 and now its acting funny. Been on the Toshiba opening screen for several minutes. F10 just give me safe mode options
