Resetting a standard laptop to its original factory settings can be a highly technical and time-intensive process. But because the Asus Eee PC is a netbook that is smaller than most laptops, and with fewer programs, the process of restoring it to its original settings requires fewer steps and technical knowledge. No disassembly of your computer is required.
Step
Open the display on your Asus and click the "Shut down" tab in the lower-right corner of the desktop. Click "Yes" when prompted, to confirm.
Step

Step
Select the "Restore Factory Settings" option (which is the last one in the menu).
