Hi guys, about a month ago i get an Asus GL551JW. After a while using it, i noticed that it was with windows 8 Home Edition, so i decided to install a windows 8.1 Pro.
Now i was wondering how can i get my Factory windows Back is it Possible or it is overwritten

Thanks in advance

Well if you used add features in windows 8.1, you should be able to remove it the same way remove the Pro Product key and your computer will hide the pro features. If you clean installed the pro version then most likely you deleted the recovery partition and there would be no way to put the factory image back on. If you clean installed Pro the you'll only need to clean install windows 8.1 Core you can get your ISO here Get you hardware drivers here Asus Support Download
