How did you try to re-set your v5? What was the original factory-installed Windows version? Win8? Win8.1? or Win10? What version was on it when you tried to re-set it? Jack E/NJ

- Hold the Power Button for 5 seconds or until the computer completely shuts off.
- Press the Power Button to turn the computer on.
- As soon as you see the rotating loading circle, press and hold the Power Button until the computer shuts off.
- Repeat this process 2 or 3 times until you see the Preparing Automatic Repair screen.
- Let the computer boot to the Automatic Repair screen.
- Click Advanced Options, and then select Troubleshoot
- In the Troubleshoot menu, select Advanced options.
- In the Advanced options menu, select UEFI Firmware Settings.
- Click Restart to restart the system and enter UEFI (BIOS). The Windows 8 boot menu will also show automatically after Windows 8 fails to start successfully three times.Click on 'Yes' if the comment answers your question!
