Hmm... is there a recovery disc provided? Reformatting with the
aid of recovery tool provided by the manufacture will reinstate
your computer to the state that when you first on your computer...
All files and programs will be gone.
So, it is advisable to back up files that are important to you.
like pictures, documents, movies, etc...
They do not provide any recovert discs as of very long time
ago.
You will have to create your own recovery discs via the recovery
module. and back up via the same module.
well reformat will mean clean the whole drive so u will lose the
vaio programs... but can always install them back from the disks
provided to u at purchase... if u got multiple partitions then u
can jz move ur files to that drive and format ur c:\.. but if u wan
to clean whole hdd then u will need external hdd or dvds...
As above, no more recovery discs. Depends on how you reformat.
Via Xp CD or recovery discs or recovery partition in your
laptop.
for original equiptment manufactuers, like Dell, Sony, HP ect
ect, there is a recovery portion for you to reformat.
you can do it via
But note, please backup first.
If you install it vai this way. all your default
Sony bundled and other windows default programmes will
be present and it will be reset to it's default settings
like windows media player ( you will have to setup again like the
first time.) your anti virus suite included with the laptop will
renew it's trail of 30 - 90 days.
