  • Hard drive question. How to after the hard drive is installed.?

    Okay. some years back when I didn't really care about computer repair. I had a Dell desktop computer. The hard drive went bad. It was under warranty. A dell technician came to my house and put me a new hard drive in. When he got it installed he hit one key on the keyboard and it starting loading windows. He said it would probably take about an hour an the computer would stop and restart several times. Which it did. Now what I would like to know, is what key did he hit, and how did he do that. Thanks to anyone that can give an answer and the best answer will get 10 points
