Hello,

I want to format my Presario CQ56 laptop running Windows 7. I was told to click F10 at startup, and when I click it, a blue screen appears and I don't know what to do next! Please help me!

Thanks in advance ^^

Hello,

Try tapping the F11 key when starting the PC and see what it offers you on the screen. (for example, factory reset)

Best regards

Thank you, after all I managed on my own :)

You can mark it as resolved!

And I'm super happy for you Badaboum37, but even though it’s been a while since you finished with your formatting, I don’t know how to do it! And I would like to know how. I didn’t receive a CD with the computer, so I don’t know if I can format it without a CD. How did you do it? Please give details (not too many, but enough for those who have the same question to understand ^^)

Hello,

well, you press the F11 key at startup and you get a factory reset menu. You follow the on-screen instructions.

I don't understand, when I press F10 it says BOOTMGR is missing and CTRL + ALT + DEL to restart. Please tell me how I should proceed.

First of all, hello or good evening! And maybe thank you ...
if it's an HP PC, tap the F11 key as soon as the PC starts up.

In My Computer, by right-clicking on the hard drive, there is the Format option. I would like to know if we can format the disk this way.

Look if your key with an operating system is indeed "biotable".

Hello

Blue screen, okay, but what does it say on it?

Well, the subject has probably been abandoned since June, but here I am in this situation! So if we could bring this topic back up...

So in the BIOS, it's written everything we want, except formatting :(

The BIOS has nothing to do with formatting and vice versa. Don't touch it at all.

Now, if you explain your problem, maybe we can help you.

See you!

When I insert my Windows 7 CD, it says loading... it's loading the primary Windows files... once that's done, I get a blue screen with notifications that appear... and I can't move forward... I'm forced to restart and go through the same process that leads me exactly to the same place as mentioned...??
Is it possible that I can't format a Compaq compared to a normal PC? I've often formatted my computers but have never been able to with Compaq... is there a different way for other computers?
