Ive been told by various websites including toshiba sites to hold down the 0 key while booting and it should take me to the factory reset page but it doesnt work no matter how many times i try it. I dont have any factory reset discs because they dont give you any any more. I have a toshiba satellite a200 windows vistahome basic laptop. Note: i have had the harddrive replaced in my laptop and it says its a Samsung HM160HI - (si) does that have anyhting to do with why its not going to that page for me?

What does 'restore to factory settings' mean in Windows 7?

By restoring the factory settings of your computer, you are essentially returning the data on your computer to the state that it was in when you first bought it (or installed Windows 7, if you had another operating system previously). Restoring factory settings can be very useful for those who wish to sell their computer, or to pass it on to another user. However, those interested in doing this should ensure that they save backup copies of any important files and data; once you have restored the factory settings, your data may be removed from computer.
