No operating system

I have an M17 3 that came with Windows 10 and just does not work right so I backed up the system as per Alien Respon then tried to redo system with the recovery portion of the drive. That failed miserable so thinking I had the back up I tried to use the recovery drive I had created  and same result.

    Do you have access to another computer? If so, you should be able to create a USB boot disk. Basically, you can download the media creation tool for windows 10 on another computer with a USB drive. I think it has to be at least 4gigs. You can then use that to install windows 10.

    Here is the link:

    Did you do a clean install by booting from the USB drive?

    You may need to clean all of the partitions off of the drive in advanced setup. At the very least remove the  windows install partition.
