CTRL F11 to restore my DELL INSPIRON 1505
why do i need to restore?
Because i had the following installed on my laptop :
aston shell, macromedia MX studio 2004, adobe standard 8, tune up utilities 2007, getright 6.2a, utorrent, nero smart, office 2007, blah blah blah..
so it would take forever for my laptop to get up from sleep or to start afresh, and i practically avoided formatting since 4 months, so im glad that there is a secret dell partition eating up 4 GB of my hard-disk and saving an image of the hdd.
All i had to do, was restart the machine, before the os loads, hold to CTRL + F11 key and booom…
the dell semantec ghost server launched and the image started loading..
cool han? brand new as if i opened the laptop from the box!!
asked me to accept the dell license, gave me the service tag details(wot do i use that for??) and thats it!
20 more minutes and im ready with the new media center XP on my laptop! YUHOOOO!!!
oh yeah, now starts the pain,
i gotta install OFFICE 2007, dreamweaver, getright, utorrent, blah blah…
here we go again!
