    I'm trying to restore sony
    google tells me to F10 or F10+alt whatever, I get to VAIO recovery center and I do not see factory restore.
    I have, on left hand side, Hardware Diagonostics and Rescue Data(basically for making backups)

    Do you have the recovery discs? If so you can recover using those too.
    That's why it's always good to burn these discs, first thing when you get the Laptop.
