The password requested is "Empowering Technology password" ,

Option 2 is "Restore system from user's backup/" which is greyed out

Opion 3 is "restore system from CD/DVD"- - No dvd or cd was provided when i baught the laptop

option 4 is "EXIT"

so option 1 "Restore system to factory default" looks reasbale to attempt, but prompts for "Empowering Technology password" which i do not posses, any help is appreciated

cheers
