Restoring toshiba laptop to factory settings [Solved/Closed]
Hi All,
I got a virus on my Toshiba Sattellite and now it won't boot. I don't have any personal stuff that I need to keep so restoring it to factory setting won't be a problem. The problem is bit the F8 and the pressing zero at boot time won't work. All I get is a black screen with a cursor at the top left part of the screen. Both F2 and F12 still work. Any suggestions? I don't have a restore disk.
Thanks for any help you can give me.
