Hi keijohns7,
Assuming that the recovery partition has not been formatted you can reset to factory defaults by tapping F10 at boot when you see the Vaio logo – this should start the recovery procedure.
Also, if you created recovery media the disks can be used to recover your system.
Otherwise you need to purchase a set of recovery media from Support.
