I purchased one of these a good 5-6 months ago and want to format it now. Thing is, it came pre-installed and I didn't make a recovery drive..or image..or whatever it is, i'm pretty ignorant when it comes to this stuff, so I may get something wrong. Anyways, whenever I boot>f9>reset computer it says something along the lines of "A required partition is missing", I don't know how it's missing and I don't know how to fix it. I don't really have the money right now to make a recovery USB/Disk, but if I absolutely have to then so be it. Please can anyone help me?
