    Hello Guys,

    Firstly, sorry about my English, I'm still improving it but I’ll try to make it as clear as I can.

    So, I bought a notebook ASUS G75VX at bestbuy, this notebook came with Win 8. The first month of use the notebook there was a problem with my HDD and I formatted it completely, but I had not the opportunity to create system backup (image backup), so all partitions and files were deleted. A important detail is that I live in Brazil and ASUS support in here doesn’t give me any solution for that problem, I asked for the installation of the factorys System Image, but they didn’t that.

    Now I need to install everything on my computer by myself, and a have some questions:

    1º - The notebook came with Win 8, so, if I download the same windows version in Internet and try to install, it would work ? And what about the win 8 activation ? Is at BIOS my product registration key ?
    2º - How should I install the win 8 version ? I read something about UEFI and GPT partition, how should I do that ? I want also use the FAST BOOT to start my win8 faster. I remember that before I had the problem, my windows starts with a Republic Of Gamers Logo it takes 10 or 15 seconds.
    3º - What about the Drivers ? is it there some software that I can use to download all the drivers at the same time ? I mean, is it there a program to make it easier ?
    4º - What kind of configuration should I do for a better or same performance as the original configuration ?
    5º - After everything would installed, how can I create a new Recovery Partition ? and how is the way to refresh the windows if it is necessary ?

    Thanks, for your help… and sorry about the English again!
