Try this

config t

write erase

yes to confirm

then reload the switch

If you have VLAN's on the switch you will also have to delete the vlan.dat file

delete flash:vlan.dat

yes to confirm

Guys,I mean reset the switch not erase the configuration,the switch was in a stack member an now its with me while am not able to dive to privileging

It is a post of 4 years ago. however, occasionally I just got the answer and leave it here as reference:)

 

For 3750, in short:

hold the "mode" reset button up to 15 seconds or more till only one system green light.

Then release it, the green light will blink.

 

"Release the Mode button after approximately 15 seconds when the SYST LED turns solid green. When you release the Mode button, the SYST LED blinks green."

 

check the console, you will find:

...

00:11:48: %SYS-7-NV_BLOCK_INIT: Initialized the geometry of nvram

00:11:49: %SYS-5-RELOAD: Reload requested Reload Reason: power-on.
