Compaq, factory restore
Hi everybody. I have Compag Presario 5000( very slow full with trojans and malware...), with Win XP home OS. I want to restore to factory setting, reformat hdd and reinstall all over again. I have Compaq recovery CD, which came with this PC. I tried to restore to factory settings from the CD, I was prompt that I will lose all my files, click continue, them I was prompted that “working” and after to take out CD and reboot. After rebooting nothing happened. I was back on my old settings, no factory restore at all.
Can somebody tell me how to restore tio its factory settings? Thanks |

I don’t have restore CDs I only have Recovery CD. All files that I need for restore are stored in another partition of the HDD, but I don’t know how to access them with this Recovery CD. Any thoughts?
Thanks Daniela |

Sound like you need a "full system recovery" Have a look at this site
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/d...name=c00007689 for an instruction on how to do that. Good luck |
