Sorry for late reply. Madd day today. Ok laptop 1 is VPCEB1EOE Sony vaio.
Laptop 2 fujitsu AH531.
laptop 3 Sony vaio VGN-FS215E0 -
Do you have an external hard drive on which to save the data stored on the three laptops?
Once you've stored the data:
Fujitsu: F12 as soon as you turn the machine on and then Recovery and Utility..
Sony Vaio VGN-FS215E: F10 as soon as you start the machine, then Recovery Utility.
Sony VPCEB1EOE: F11 as soon as you start the machine and then Sony Recovery Centre
If that doesn't work I'll find the Recovery Discs.0 -
Thanks for your reply. I only have cd 4.7gb each. Plenty of them. Can I back up on that? And how do i do it?
Also don't have recovery disk for the Sony laptop. May have fujitsu0 -
