I have a 13" MacBook Pro that Apple has lent me while my new 15" is being built and I need to restore it to the same condition as the day I received it from Apple. How do I do that?

A common problem with the 13" early generation of the macbook pro. More than likely this is simply a hard drive CABLE which is a 14$ replacement at an apple store. Quick easy repair, and can usually be done while you wait. 9 out of 10 repairs for this issue were remedied by replacing the cable, and in turn we were able to save all of the data as the HD was not replaced. Best of luck.
Sorry to say...the only solution is...

You can do that by shutting down your computer, then when you turn it on press and hold command+option+R and wait a while (normally about 5 mins)
Once your in Internet Recovery go to
disk utilityand format your drive. After you have done that go toInstall OS Xand follow the instructions. This will create an clean install. Once you do that shutdown the computer and then you can give it back to them. Don't do the setup.
