today we're going to be performing a
factory reset on a gateway laptop this
is something that you want to do if you
want to erase everything out the
computer so that's what you started okay
guys go ahead and power up the laptop
and just keep pressing f2 repeatedly
we're taking it to the BIOS okay once
you get to this screen right here you
see how has information main security
boot and exit go ahead and go to exit
and select exit discarding changes okay
after you do that go ahead and press the
Enter button it'll bring you to this
menu it's already highlighted only yes
good and click the enter button as well
and then from there it should bring you
to this menu okay you might have to do
it a few times but after that you're
actually want to get to a menu here
where it says please wait and this is a
good indication that you're going in the
right direction okay now shortly after
that you're actually going to see a
recovery looks like it in mo correctly
so when you see this go ahead and select
the C advanced repair options and press
Enter okay that's gonna send you to
another menu here go ahead and select
troubleshoot ok then you're gonna get to
this menu here where it says reset your
PC it'll explain to you what will happen
in this case we do not want to back up
anything that's all we want to do is
just do a factory reset so click on next
and here basically we're going to do a
full reset when it comes to this option
so this all you have to do is select on
just remove my files
and here says that we're all ready to go
so basically just make sure everything
is powered in to get in power click the
reset button and from here you just go
ahead and let it go ahead and do its
thing
typically these will take depending on
how big your hard drive is I've seen a
tick anywhere between fifteen to thirty
minutes so just go ahead and take your
time go ahead get some other things done
and we'll get back to it when it
completes okay guys so up to twenty
minutes and a computer shut off and shut
on about a couple of times finally
everything is completed and I met the
menu here so just go ahead and press the
next button at the bottom okay so here
at this menu we want to go ahead and
license the terms go ahead and check the
box and accept here and go to the next
menu okay now for the sake of the video
here we're just going to uncheck this
box but we don't want to get any type of
invitation or any spam we're just going
to skip this menu here alright and on
here you can just go ahead and give your
PC a name I'll usually just go ahead and
name the PC whatever any assets gateway
name of the Gateway if it's a Dale name
it's a deal but choose whatever name you
like for your PC or for your laptop
rather okay now here at this menu here
just go ahead and use the Express
settings just button right here
okay now here is the menu where you can
actually create your own name and a
password so that way you can lock your
computer down but for the sake of this
video I'm just going to create a
username a generic password and press
the finish button here at the bottom
okay and shortly after you create a
username your password
Center you actually get to this menu
here where it just goes through a few
options just don't sting so at this
moment just relax for a while and let it
complete alrighty guys after all that is
completed looks like everything is done
