Do you really require the disk that comes with your computer to perform a factory reset? For your situation, I understand you're getting a Toshiba Satelite with an older Core i5 processor and don’t have the reset disk. It’s possible to reset it without it, but you’ll need to follow specific steps or use alternative methods. You might also need to reinstall Windows, depending on the condition of the drive.
