How To Factory Restore Hp Laptop W/o Logging In?
On my other laptop, I have accidentally updated my Radeon Driver with something and now my whole entire screen is disoriented. I need to Factory Restore the computer REALLY BADLY. Please, can anyone tell me how to Factory Restore my laptop w/o needing to enter the start screen?
I have heard that pressing F8 repetitively will bring you to this Advanced Startup screen, does this screen have access to a Factory Restore option? I need to fix it as soon as I can!

Yes, press F8 when initialy starting the computer will get you to the safe mode option where it will load a standard video driver rather than the one you installed. Then do a system restore there. some HP laptops have the F11 function to do a factory default where it will give you option to repair windows or re-install windows again. This is if there was a recovery partition on the system.
