    Hi,
    Has anyone used this for a complete system restore to factory state?
    Will I need to install the latest driver or will the system update itself?
    I have my L502x almost one year and since then I have had the two USB 3.0 ports replaced, at which time the Bios was flashed - will I need to do this again myself?
    Also, NVidia have a newer driver for the 540m graphics card.
    I recently installed this but Windows never picked up on it as it was reporting the older driver in device manager and saying this was the most up to date.
    Any advice or tips are much appreciated.
    Thanks.
