My new computer, Packard Bell Imedia 2414 didn't come with a reinstall disc. The O/S is Vista Home Premium?

Question

Should it have come with a disc? If not, where do I find my licence key?

Answer 1

Press F8 or F111 depending on the manufacture and select the restore option. There are 2 options; one to restore to an earlier point that has been stored by windows. This option will restore your computer to an earlier point without erasing any of your data. The other option will restore will PC to the factory settings and erase all the data you stored on your pc. Hope that helps
