Essentially this rebuilds your laptop back to factory settings including full nova button functionality without having to buy the lenovo recovery disks. The process is not that hard but you are completely wiping your hard drive yourself. All your data will be gone. Bear this in mind. You have to be bold enough to try it. And it's not for the faint of heart. Read through the whole thing first before doing it step by step. Here we go There are a lot of steps but it's a fairly simple process. Requirements at least 2 USB sticks - One 4 GB or more Necessary Files: 1. Okr8 Engineer - Wipes the hard drive and creates the necessary partitions to bring Lenovo drive back to initial state. This is the file you really need. Burn the Windows 8. Relax and have a coffee while it creates the usb stick. Download and save the necessary lenovo drivers onto another USB stick, external hard drive or onto one of the 2 USB sticks you are already using. Valuable if you only have one computer. Please note: You install all this stuff at your own risk. Property back up and save all your old personal data first onto an external hard drive. This process will wipe everything off your drive, including all the partitions including the old recovery partition if you have one there and you'd won't be able to get it back. Having access to two computers is helpful. But if done property you should be good with one. I will not be responsible for any mishaps. This is cowboy computing. Typically for people with too much time on their hands or who are obsessive compulsive types Second section: 1. Press Nova button, wait, enter into Bios. This allows you to boot to the OKR 8 USB your prepared. Shut down computer 4. Insert OKR 8 USB 5. Press Nova button again - Select Boot- Select - USB drive with OKR 8 on it. Let the OKR 8 USB load. Once it loads click the check mark and hit the button with Chinese letters. This whole software is in Chinese and not in English. It will say 'done' but it's not all done until the popup windows appears and says All Done. Then REMOVE the usb and reboot. It will reboot again and load into the One Key Recovery Panel software. Now select shutdown from the One Key Recovery environment. You will get a GPT error when trying to install windows onto the hard drive. Insert the Windows 8. Press the Nova button again. Select Boot Options: Boot from the Windows 8. Choose Custom Install and Install Windows 8. Remove USB stick when asked. Go through standard windows setup. Install all drivers and program you want in preparation to save the intial factory recovery state. Get your yoga 2 pro or laptop up to the initial specifications you want and then shut down. Now it's time to create the initial backup onto the hidden recovery partition so you can reset the laptop back to initial specs whenever you wish including when you want to sell or give away the laptop. From a shutdown state - Goto system recovery through novo button again. Once it's loaded press CTRL+Shift+O to pull up the command prompt window Shift + F10 was previously suggested. It did not work for me, maybe on older machines 4. At the command prompt type in: diskpart 5. H - This is the hidden Lenovo recovery partition where the initial factory backup image will be saved to. Your directory should change to H: 10. You're almost at the end! Wait ten minutes while the initial backup is saved onto the hidden recovery parition 15. Lots of work but worth it in the end This will probably also work with Windows 10 when it comes out. I did this on my Yoga 2 Pro.

Hi, I tried to this process for my Lenovo Ideapad 310, with 500GB +24GB SSD, I carefully followed every step, upto step 8, but my laptop failed to do step 9, no OKR 8 software load and installation of recovery partition. I checked with bootable windows, there was no restoration of factory defined partition, there was just one 500GB unallocated partition. I also converted HDD to basic GTP partition using mini Partition tool 9 , its free initially HDD was basic MBR, I converted to basic GTP unallocated, still no luck I feel it might be failing because 24GB SSD is being used by smart technology and may be OKR 8, is trying to create partitions on SSD which is locked by BIOS. If there is any one who can help me over come this problem. I was able to install windows without OKR 8, using Windows 8 DVD defining my own custom partitions. But I got problem with cache SSD drive. Intel Smart Accelartion was disabled, and windows kept prompting SSD failing drive. Very annoying, I want to give another try and re-install win 8 with OKR 8. Just an amendment, I found the solution. OKR 8 was unable to create factory partition structure because it was trying to create on 24GB SSD DISK 0 which is locked by BIOS. RAID mode in BIOS is important if you want to use SSD as cache drive , your BIOS must be set to RAID mode and preferably UEFI mode for windows 8. Intel Rapid Storage does not support ACHI, though there is solution that you can change ACHI to raid mode even after installation, here is the link Changing SATA Modes after Windows Installations Rapid Storage Technology Setup Other useful utilities I used was Rufus 2. TIP: For Lagacy mode burn in MBR for BIOS in NTFS format... It will be wise to have at least 2 or 3 USBs, though I kept burning OKR 8, and Win8 ISO. I have Retail version DVD that I purchased when windows 8 was launched, but am sure you can find Windows 8 ISO online. System Stable and Running.. I still failed to manage to use iRST technology. Therefore couldn't setup Intel Rapid Storage Technology, manually. I am believing BIOS is doing it internally the way SSD is preparation at BIOS startup. Thanks for every one help. Dont hesitate to ask a question if you have any. I just got back on here and didn't realize this thread was live and helping people. I don't know how well it works on different Lenovo laptops. As the OKR seems to repartition for a 250 GB SSD HD. Be sure when you burn the OKR and OS to select GPT not MBR and fat32 if your computer support UEFI like the Y2pro does. And make the stick bootable. But you guys seems to be figuring it out. Ironically my hard drive just crashed so I'm having to do another fresh install myself. I'm loaded Windows 10 directly and this method worked great. GL Thank you so much for putting all of the effort into this. I know these things can be pretty daunting. That said, I wonder what I would be missing by giving up all of this. I know the drivers are available in one partition but I just downloaded what I wanted from the Lenovo site. I downloaded the touchpad drivers from IIRC Synaptics so I could get a more functional driver. I also skipped all of the bloat that Lenovo ships with the default install. Is there any reason at all for me to keep the recovery and driver partitions? I'd prefer to delete them and grow my Win10 partition into that space. No reason to do ANY of this if you don't want to use the Lenvovo Nova button one key recovery feature. You can just wipe the hard drive and do a standard install. This move is just for the fancy OCD types who like things perfectly factory for no reason. Yes you'll save much more space with your approach and have more control of your hard drive. Then just download the minimum Lenvovo drivers from their site. You can just use the refresh windows 10 in Windows if you ever want to reset your Windows OS. It's basically the same thing. Or use if you want to create a backup partition after you've installed Windows. Not sure how it works with a dual boot though but it's pretty good and free. Hope that answers your question.

Hi Guys one bug I have just discovered when doing a of Windows 8 or 10. You have to change one of the default settings of the synaptics touch pad. This was causing me problems for months. If you use ever use an external display and keyboard, when you close the laptop, the mouse cursor can jump around erratically, this is because the displayed is pressing down on the touchpad and it is reacting to that. Lenovo turns it up at default but if you do the install yourself it will be set too low. Hello am new to the site I followed all your steps everything works great. My laptop is lenovo y510p. My question is how do I increase partition C size without damaging one key recovery partition. I tried using disk management to shrink D partition and extend C partition but extend option is not showing in the C partition. Thank you in advance for your help.
