Hello, everyone!
I have an ASUS VivoBook X200CA that is running a Windows 8.1 Upgrade. For about 5 months, this laptop has been running perfectly without any problems and I have managed to reset the computer many times due to certain errors and problems that have arisen from software and hardware compatibility.
Recently, I went to reset my laptop, it restarted and then it took me to the WinRE screen. I went into Troubleshooting > Advanced Options and I clicked on the Reset option. It then took me through each of the various warnings and making sure that my data was backed up and then, once I had clicked on the "Reset" button, it hung for a bit and then said "Reset has failed - Required Partition is Missing". This alluded me as it had never happened before.
I took my laptop back to Currys and they referred me over to the manufacturer (ASUS) who were absolutely no help whatsoever. They suggested that I send it back as it was a HDD failure. I don't believe this is true as this was working absolutely perfectly before and it was only recently that these problems have arisen.
Please help, as I need to do revision for my End of Year exams, determining which set I am in and which subjects that I am allowed to take for GCSE.
Thank you in advance,
CosmicAssault
