Re: How to undo the recovery of back up drive.

Hi,

I have just bought a new Thinkpad Edge E430 laptop. Unfortunately, I wanted to do a factory reset but recovered the back up drive and ended up deleting the back up. Now I am not able to do factory reset.

I need to go back in original setting.

Will any please suggest what should I do?

Re: How to undo the recovery of back up drive.

You can buy a set of recovery disks from Lenovo. They can be ordered through the support site. I'm not sure what they cost in Sweden but most of Europe is under 50 Euros.
