I have a Dell Inspiron N5110 laptop that has been running very sluggishly.
Having done everything I can to improve matters, cleaning the disc, cleaning the registry and defragging etc I want to start again and reset to factory settings.
According to the instructions i should
Press the power button
Hit F8 repeatedly when the Dell logo appears and before the Windows logo appears.
This should take me into an "advanced boot" menu.
I should highlight " repair my computer" which will take to another menu where I can select "return to Dell factory settings" or similar words.
Now
I can get as far as highlighting "repair my computer" but, on hitting "return", Windows starts up normally and I cannot reach the reset option.
Am I doing something wrong?
Help!,
