Help

Is there anywhere that i can download a factory restore ISO for my X17R3  windows 7.  All i got was a windows 7 install disc, minus drivers, and a resource cd.

I would like one disc, that reinstalls everything to like out of the box with one disc.

    Dell offers one at the time of purchase, otherwise you are out of luck and will have to install everything from the disks you have.

    You can use AlienRespawn. This software allows you to create an image of your HDD that you can later revert back to using the same application. This way you will only have to use the Recovery Discs once to create the image the first time.

    That sucks,  and Dell, Microsoft etc. cant understand why people download torrents of illegal software.

    If those much needed discs were available directly from dell etc.  maybe there wouldnt be so much piracy.

    Im not outta luck,  im just on my way to Pirate Bay.

    You have everything you need ... no need to pirate anything.

    See my Favorites for how to clean-install.
