    The exact recovery process is manufacturer-specific. To get started, you'll need to know your motherboard model (for custom-built PCs) or PC brand and model (for pre-built systems like Dell, HP, or Lenovo). This information is crucial for finding the correct BIOS file and recovery instructions.
