What are the difference between "Auto-Start up" and "Factory Resetting"

Hello everybody,

Just curious to know what are the difference between  "Auto-Start up" and "Factory Resetting"

Both option are available under menu, for all CX520 series (KDL-46CX20 as example) . However both do the same function. So why Sony engineers duplicate it under the menu ?

Thank you:smileyhappy:

As my question scroll down to the 3rd page without getting the right answer , so i surf the net until I found the answer in other forum

AUTO-START UP

Starts the initial set-up to select the language, country/region and location, and tune

in all available digital and analogue channels. That mean the picture and sound setting kept the same

FACTORY RESETTING

Resets all settings to factory settings. After completing this process, the initial set-up

screen is displayed. That means everything are reset back to out of the box ( i guess the firmware is reloaded too so if some software faults was there it will be cured)

Help yourself is better than waiting, so my question has been answered.

i thought the Auto start up mode was primarily for helping set up the basics of a new tv, very useful for the novice that dont know their way round new technology.
