  6. Hi, I installed a new hard drive on my sony vaio that has come equipped with Windows 8. Will this process help restore the windows 8 or do I have to purchase a new windows 8 cd to reinstall?
  7. Hii :)!
    I pressed Alt+F10 nothing happened :(.. after many times. I also tried assist+F10.. again nothing. Then i went on Vaio Care and clicked Advanced Tools. I see a tab that says Restore: 1) System Restore, 2) Reinstall applocations and drivers 3) Vaio Data Restore Tool. I would like to know which of these is the Factory Restore? :/.. i am sorry if my qsn is too dumb. But im so desperate! :(

  14. Why do i not have the option of recovery and maintenance?
  15. Why do
  16. Hey mates! My VGNFS742 doesn't have the assist button, so using the F10 Recovery method, the process starts (black screen white lettering at bottom of screen); the next screen (the process goes directly to this screen) displays (blue screen with white cursor) and flickers once; then displays a white screen with black lettering showing "Restore C: Drive (Step 1 of 4) Use to restore the C: drive to it's original factory condition..... I checkmark "yes" to understand the warning of everything being deleted and hit next (only options at bottom of the screen that aren't grayed out are CANCEL and NEXT); a boxed error screen pops up displaying "ERROR 400 occurred when restoring the system.Cannot continue. Click OK to restart from Recovery Disc 1 and select "Restore Complete System". I don't have any kind of recovery discs. Originally this laptop's OS was Win XP; I clean installed to Win 8.1 Pro but made sure I left the OEM partition on the hard drive as the install gave the option to do so. Can anyone shed some light on what's going on here!!? I will gladly answer questions if asked. Thanks, LouieVaio
  17. Do you need any original Sony recovery DVD to be able to do this on a Sony laptops with Windows 8? Or it uses the recorded files on the laptop hard Recovery Partition?
