ok,
i have a twinhead laptop with vista buisness installed on it,

now,when the laptop begins,after the memory test, it comes up with "f4 for restore"

originally if you press f4 it will install a fresh copy of vista again,

so i wanted to free up some space and remove the partition,

so i deleted the partition but still on startup the f4 restore still comes up,but it wont work cause the partition is removed,

how do i get rid of it?
im presuming there is a command in the vista startup files,

ive looked into it with no answer,closest i could find is im assuming i need to use the bcdedit.exe feature,

the laptop still boots up in wondows fine,so i have no issues,

just want to remove that message.

finally worked it out:

basically,i used easybcd,it wouldnt show the f4 command for some reason,hidden or what,i dont know,

so what i did was i went to the section where it says diagnostics center,i then clicked on reset bcd storage and clicked on rescue my system,

restarted my laptop,and its gone,perfect,
