Alienware M17x R4 formatting issues
Hi, I have been searching for an issue for some time now and I have come to no success. When formatting my laptop a year or so back I made a silly mistake and accidentally deleted a partition that was needed in-order for me to format it again.
I have tried a multitude of different things varying from using the windows 8.1 disc with the drivers on a USB with no avail and various other methods that I have found through searching through the internet with none of them working.
Thanks in advance for any help that can be given on the situation.

If you are referring to the original Dell factory backup image partition, once it has been deleted, you cannot get it back. All you can do now is make a new backup and save it to USB key or DVD.
