Hi,

 

If the machine is running the operating system it originally shipped with, you can reset the notebook to its 'Factory Condition' using the Recovery Partition ( or Recovery Media if you created this ) which can be accessed at boot - ie shutdown the notebook, then start tapping away at f11 as soon as you power on.

 

A full guide on this can be found on the following link.
