    Greetings fellow Asus Laptop users,
    I am not sure if i am in the correct thread to ask this question, nor do i use forums often so i apologize ahead if i am doing this wrong.

    Today i decided to format my laptop (Asus s96s). But after i formated the laptop, i realized that i lost my restore disk. What can i do? is there a place i can download all the drivers i need?
    Thanks, would love to hear a fast response.

    Hi and welcome to the forums!

    Check to see if you have a hidden recovery partition in your hard drive. Even if you've formatted your hard drive, the recovery partition should still be intact. If you do have the partition, you can simply use that to install windows and all the drivers directly on to your system. Continuously press F9 during boot should do the trick.

    If your system doesn't have the recovery partition, you'll need a windows installation disk. All drivers can be downloaded from the Asus website.
