make sure you keep F10 pressed as soon as u switch the PC on, you might be pressing it too late. I'm not familiar with the F10 method for doing a factory reset/recovery. usually you either get a CD to boot from, or you get a floppy-disk to boot from which then starts a recovery menu. Sure you didn't get a floppy for recovery?
