    Hi all,

    New M17X R2 laptop ordered and hopefully with me in the next couple of weeks...

    just a quick question, I am moving onto the M17x from the M1730, and if I wanted to do a quick restore on the M1730, I would simply press F8 on start up and select factory restore (Or something like that).

    Is this still an option on the M17X, as I was reading something about the Respawn, but am not sure what it is.

    Many thanks
