Dell Factory Restore from disk stuck at 52%
Hi. My Dell Inspiron 7737, was reformatted and the hard drive was erased. I am doing a factory restore, but it is stuck at 52% on getting hard drive ready?
What should I do?

Hi ianpc,
The disc seems to be corrupted or damaged. However you can try cleaning the disc using a clean damp cloth to check if it works.

The disk still did nothing. Yesterday after it go to 52%, it ejected the disc. Do I need to buy a new recovery disk and is it safe to shut off the laptop and restart the process.

Hi dell,
Im also having the same problem here. But I'm not sure if it is stuck or it takes a long time to prepare the h hardware. How long does it actually take to prepare the hard drive? I've been running it for about 15 hours now. I'll be waiting for your reply. Thanks
