Hard Disk Drive Recovery using the recovery partition

You have the options of recovering your system using the
Hard Drive Recovery partition to the factory-set default, or
recovering just your C: drive and leaving other partitions (for
example, a D: drive) intact, or changing the size of your C:
drive and then recovering it.
To recover your hard disk drive using the utilities stored on
your computer's HDD:
1 Make sure the computer is turned off.
2 Press and hold the 0 (zero) key on your keyboard while
powering on the computer. When the computer powers
on, the TOSHIBA HDD Recovery Utility screen
displays.

Recovering a hard disk drive to its factory default setting

information will be lost. Be sure to save your work on external
media before proceeding.
